Abstract: This paper is aimed at exploring the role of the HB-HTA ecosystem as an important pathway for popularizing the implementation of innovations in healthcare organizations. The scientific debate has largely been focused on the rising importance of HB-HTA and the principles guiding the process. Solutions implemented by individual countries differ, which may be rooted in historical, cultural, and institutional differences. Our understanding of the impact of individual countries’ healthcare systems on HB-HTA solutions and infrastructure still lacks a basis in interpretative studies. A conceptual framework is proposed to assess the aptness of the HB-HTA model designed for hospitals operating in a country or region, focused on the concepts of adaptiveness and responsiveness to features of the healthcare system present there. A tool is proposed for investigating factors that are likely to assist the successful implementation of the HB-HTA ecosystem. A dynamic SWOT analysis on the case of the HB-HTA model designed for Poland provides interesting insights into the building of the conceptual framework. The results of this study help explain how to create an HB-HTA model that is best adapted to the regional or national healthcare system, including potential risks and opportunities.
