NICE guidance on health technologies and the role of editors.

NATIONAL Institute for Health & Care Excellence (Great Britain); GREAT Britain. National Health Service

The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) is the independent organisation in England responsible for developing national guidance, standards, and information on providing high-quality health and social care, and preventing and treating ill health. Editing plays a major role in this process, by helping to ensure that published guidance from NICE lacks mistakes, omissions, and ambiguities and that it is easy to understand for both healthcare professionals and the public.
