Health Choice Awards · Presented by IAHPM
Recognising health products that make a meaningful difference in everyday use.
The Health Choice standard
Health Choice Awards, presented by the International Association of Health Product Manufacturers, recognises finished health products for defined users and real use contexts. The assessment considers the evidence of benefit, the experience of using the product and the information people need to make an informed choice.

How selection works
Three independent reviewers contribute product and evidence, human-factors and information expertise. A separate chair checks the reasons and the published thresholds before signing a decision. An award is made only where the full standard is met.
