No formal assessment has been made. However, the National Health Service continually monitors the market for new technologies and treatments to enhance outcomes and experience of care, including for those living with diabetes. The National Institute of Care Excellence (NICE) assesses all significant new medicines or indications via its health technology assessment programmes. NICE is currently developing updated guidelines on the use of medicines for the management of type 2 diabetes in children, young people and adults.
