while the rest similar to NICE guidelines. The median (IQR) WTP threshold was differentiated between oncology [V51,000 (V50,000-57,000)] and non-oncology studies [V34,000 (V30,000-V35,000); p-value,0.001]. In both type of studies, the median WTP thresholds were not statistically significantly different between GDP, NICE and NS methodologies. Conclusions: Aligned with other countries where there is no standard WTP threshold to promote efficient use of healthcare resources, the most prominent practice in Greece was found to be that of one-to-three times the GDP per capita irrespective of type of treatment or outcome studied.
