Abstract
This paper addresses the problem of specifying an evaluation methodology capable of incorporating the multifaceted and multi-dimensional nature of the problem as it arises in relation to novel health care technology. A multidimensional value criterion model-based approach is proposed, and its applicability discussed in the context of telematic home haemodialysis.
