The Specialist Orthopaedics Expert Clinical Advisory Group (SOECAG) is a sub-committee of the Medical Devices and Human Tissue Advisory Committee (MDHTAC). The SOECAG’s primary role is to undertake assessment of the comparative clinical effectiveness of medical devices (or human tissue product if required) in the respective category in order to establish the eligibility of the product for listing on the Prescribed List (PL). These assessments inform advice to the MDHTAC, the Department of Health and Aged Care, and the Minister for Health and Aged Care, on the suitability of the products for listing on the PL, or for amending the details of the existing billing codes (on the PL), or for any post-listing activities as required.
