MEED Research Forum 2025
From Tests to Medtech: Evaluating Innovation in the Age of Digital Health
Calling all health economists and researchers
The Methods for Economic Evaluation of Diagnostics, Digital, Data and Devices (MEED) Research Forum returns for its sixth edition, bringing together the brightest minds in health economics, industry, and policy to advance the evaluation of medical technologies.
Save the Date: Thursday 20th November 2025
09:15 – 16:00 | The Milner Hotel, York, UK
Why This Matters Now
With NICE conducting "30 times more digital appraisals than two years ago" and the government's Ten-Year Health Plan now published, the implementation decisions made in the coming months will fundamentally reshape healthcare delivery and funding. The health economics community must urgently lead the development of robust, fit-for-purpose evaluation methods that ensure both innovation and sustainability as these policies move from proposal to practice.
York: Where Heritage Meets Healthcare Innovation
This one-day forum continues its mission to foster innovation in assessing the value of diagnostic technologies, digital health solutions, data-driven innovations, and medical devices across diverse fields including screening, prognostics, and monitoring.
York provides the perfect setting for MEED 2025, combining historic charm with modern accessibility. The Milner Hotel, just a 5-minute walk from York railway station, offers an ideal venue for collaboration and knowledge exchange.
