Issue Brief: Response to Comments from the Public on Revised HomVEE Procedures and Standards

For the first time since its inception, HomVEE has substantially revised several of the evidence review's procedures and standards. These revisions were released in the Version 2 Handbook of the Procedures and Evidence Standards, which was published in December 2020 (see below). To inform the revisions, HomVEE solicited feedback through a public comment period announced in two simultaneous Federal Register notices (FRNs) published on August 5, 2020. This new brief summarizes HomVEE's approach to addressing key comments from the public and expert consultants in the final Version 2 Handbook.
