Health services and insurers are taking a closer look at homeopathy after an authoritative report concluded that it was effective, safe and inexpensive – all the things that cash-strapped governments are looking for right now.
The Heath Technology Assessment (HTA) report – commissioned by the Swiss government – is one of the most influential reports for healthcare services around the world.
The HTA report, Homeopathy in Healthcare, has re-evaluated all the research, and included observational reports and case studies, to produce a glowing picture of homeopathy as effective, appropriate, safe and inexpensive. It concludes that “homeopathy is a valuable addition to healthcare.”
The HTA report is so highly valued because it has a pragmatic approach, looking at ‘real-life’ cases rather than relying entirely on academic studies that may, or may not, be properly conducted.
