It might be worth noting that purchasing arrangements via PASA are changing (see http://www.pasa.nhs.uk/PASAWeb/) The existing website, including CEP, will apparently cease to operate in a few weeks' time and you can access the doc below on http://www.pasa.nhs.uk/PASAWeb/NHSprocurement/CEP/ It isn't clear how much longer the CEP list David posted will be available on this site and where, if anywhere, it will be after March. The document below from CEP should give some information and perhaps someone on this list has more detailed info: Statement to stakeholders regarding The Centre for Evidence-based Purchasing (CEP) As an important stakeholder in CEP, I am writing to update you on the future of our service. As you will be aware, the NHS Purchasing and Supply Agency will cease to exist on 31 March 2010 following implementation of the Department of Health’s Commercial Strategy and Operating Model. The Centre for Evidence-based Purchasing (CEP) work programme currently underway will be completed with the delivery of all commissioned projects by 31 March 2010, we will conclude having published around 160 separate reports and interactive toolkits, assisting the NHS in better understanding how innovative technologies could bring improvements to both patient care and service delivery. We are proud of the success we have achieved in raising the standards of evidencing the value of medical devices and diagnostics and would like to thank you for your contributions to our work programme. As a consequence CEP is no longer able to accept proposals for the work programme. Should you wish to submit a medical technology for evaluation, you should refer to the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence website (www.nice.org.uk) for details on how to submit ideas to the new Evaluation Pathway Programme for Medical Technologies at NICE. The full catalogue of CEP reports will be available to download from the NHS PASA web site www.pasa.nhs.uk/cep until the 31st December 2009. A new portal with enhanced search functionality is being developed to ensure that all CEP reports and interactive toolkits are easily accessible. This will be available via a link on the NHS PASA web site from December onwards. Additionally, some CEP reports are available through the NHS Evidence portal (www.evidence.nhs.uk).
