This review examines the inclusion of environmental spillovers in economic evaluations of healthcare products and health technology assessments (HTA). Environmental spillovers, such as CO2 emissions, water and energy consumption, and waste disposal, significantly impact human and planetary health but are often excluded from HTAs. The review's objective is to identify economic evaluations and guidelines incorporating environmental dimensions. Methods included electronic searches of PubMed, Scopus, and EMBASE, as well as official health agencies' guidelines. Documents were…
