Abstract:
Patient and public involvement in health technology assessment (HTA) has progressed from best practice to policy requirement, yet communication barriers persist. This perspective explores how plain language summaries (PLSs) and summaries of information for patients (SIPs) can enhance equity and transparency in HTA. Building on recent European regulatory developments and emerging research, it discusses the balance between accessibility, quality and feasibility. Generative artificial intelligence offers the potential to scale PLS and SIP production, but its responsible integration requires oversight, collaboration and a continued focus on equity and patient-centeredness within evolving HTA frameworks.
