Abstract:
Today the whole world continues to look at the surrounding reality through the prism of the coronavirus. A few months ago, in our relatively prosperous life without quarantine, the world-famous Bloomberg agency compiled another rating of countries according to the health index, on top of which were Spain and Italy. When compiling this rating, the average life expectancy of the population, the level of economic development, geographical location, prevalence of bad habits, the availability of clean drinking water, etc. were taken into account. The combination of these indicators provides data for the formation of a health index, which in Spain amounted to 92.8, and in Italy - 91.6. It is believed that the main factor contributing to the high health index in these countries is the favorable climate and the ability to keep to the Mediterranean diet, which is based on olive oil, seafood and a large amount of fruits and vegetables. However, as the tragic reality shows, countries with the best organization of the healthcare system in the world were not able to withstand the epidemic. What is the situation in the country that is the third of the top three in the ranking compiled by Bloomberg - Iceland? There is neither a favourable climate, nor olive oil, nor fresh shrimps, and the average temperature in the summer months there is +10°C. Nevertheless, in terms of life expectancy, this country left behind all the Scandinavian countries and came close to Singapore and Japan. And if we talk about the prevalence of coronavirus, then as of early April, as a result of testing of 4.7% of the population 1364 cases were found in the country, and the number of deaths was only 4. A mass examination of citizens, notably free of charge for everyone, immediate tracking of the routes of infection and isolation of the ill allowed the Icelandic authorities to take control of the situation from the very beginning of the epidemic, even without the introduction of strict restrictive measures [1].

Abstract:
Belgium is a small country in northwestern Europe, with a population of 11.4 million people. The country has a very high level of urbanization; up to 97% of the population lives in cities and towns. About 10% of GDP is spent annually on the development of healthcare, which, technically, corresponds to the average European indicators. Based on the results of work in 2018, the Belgian medical care delivery system was recognized as the “most generous healthcare system in Europe”, however, it was rated much lower in terms of quality than the countries that took first places in the ranking. The country has a public and private healthcare system, and both of them are paid. 99% of the population is covered by medical insurance, and children under the age of 18 are covered by parental insurance. All officially employed Belgians and self-employed persons operating in the country must be registered and make contributions to the Belgian Health Insurance Fund. The amount of the monthly contribution to the Health Insurance Fund is fixed, it amounts to 7.35% of the salary.

Abstract:
This paper focuses improving the Slovenian healthcare system by comparing it with the systems in place in the UK, Denmark, and France. The aim of the paper is to find and present the solutions required if the healthcare system in Slovenia is to be improved. Changes need to be made to the organisation, management, and financing of the Slovenian healthcare system in response to demographic changes and changes to the age structure of the population, the rapid development of new medical technologies, drugs, treatments, and globalisation. The paper outlines the main features of the Slovenian healthcare system and compares the structure of public and private expenditure and resources with the structures in place in the UK, Denmark, and France. Public and private healthcare providers and public-private partnerships in Slovenian healthcare are also presented and compared. An insight is given at the end of the paper into the current state of the Slovenian healthcare system and the required changes, with solutions proposed for improvements and reform. The proposed solutions include redefinition of an insured person’s status, changes to the insurance basis and rates, a redefinition of the basic basket of healthcare rights, the integration and networking of public healthcare institutions, and the separation of public and private healthcare providers.

Abstract:
Background. In 2020 the global community faced a serious unexpected challenge COVID-19. Fighting the aggressive spread of the coronavirus required rapid reconfiguration of the Russian healthcare system, while exposing its weak spots and pressure points. Critical evaluation of the Russian healthcare systems resilience to crises offers new perspectives on the most effective management and organizational solutions for resolving this crisis. Research objective. The main goal of this study is to make a significant long-term contribution to the Russian healthcare system by developing a set of recommendations for increasing the systems sustainability and resilience to crises. Methods. For this study, specialists developed a framework that includes a set of questions in the 1) domains of governance, 2) financing, 3) workforce, 4) medicines and technology and 5) service delivery, which align closely with the well-recognised WHO health system building blocks. In each domain, a series of targeted questions concerned both sustainability and resilience. Findings. The main areas of work for increasing the Russian healthcare systems sustainability and resilience to crises include: adapting the existing legislative framework to the current crisis, and to prepare it for similar crises in the future; increasing healthcare funding; improving the image of the medical profession; promoting healthcare digitalization; reducing the pressure on the inpatient and emergency care services by strengthening preventive and rehabilitative care services. Conclusion. The synthesis and analysis of materials relevant to understanding the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the Russian healthcare system, supplemented by expert assessments and examples drawn from practice, allowed the authors to compile a list of recommendations for ensuring the healthcare systems sustainability and resilience to future crises. This list offers potential for healthcare industry development.

Abstract:
System safety engineering will be a great tool for designing health care systems for patient safety, but the White House has a wider goal — one that includes not only patient safety, but also reliability, efficiency, productivity, quality and cost reduction. Therefore, systems engineering is poised to become the next proactive tool in health care. A report, titled “Report To The President, Better Health Care And Lower Costs: Accelerating Improvement Through Systems Engineering,” was prepared by the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST) in May 2014 [Ref. 1]. The report highlights systems engineering, widely used in manufacturing and aviation, as an interdisciplinary approach to analyze, design, manage and measure a complex system. It also points out that, in spite of excellent examples, systems methods and tools are not yet used on a widespread basis in U.S. health care.

“You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water,” said Rabindranath Tagore, Nobel Prize recipient for literature. Not preventing harm is a practical application of this quote, which serves as an inspirational reminder that people achieve nothing unless they take purposeful action that has measurable results. Taking action on potential human errors so that harm never reaches patients is a productive goal because its impact is highly significant.

Abstract:
“Incident reporting” is frequently used as a general term for all voluntary patient safety event reporting systems which rely on those involved in patient care. Initial reports often come from frontline personnel directly involved in an event or the actions leading up to it (e.g., the nurse, pharmacist or physician caring for a patient when an error occurred). Voluntary event reporting is therefore a special form of surveillance for near misses or unsafe conditions that are unlikely to show up in formal surveys [Ref. 1]. The purpose of incident reports is to help identify potential and actual risks and, thus, mitigate hazards. Incident reports also alert risk managers to potential lawsuits. They are generated for at least five types of medical errors: near misses, adverse events, intentional unsafe acts, never events and sentinel events. These events may affect any person on the premises, including patients, employees, physicians, visitors, students or volunteers.

Abstract:
Laparoscopic robotic surgeries allow surgeons to make much smaller incisions than those used in traditional surgeries. When surgeons insert special instruments through small cuts in a patient’s body, they can use a video monitor and laparoscope (a tiny video camera) to view what’s happening inside the body and perform the operation. Using these instruments, the surgeon doesn’t have to manually reach into the patient, leading to a minimally invasive experience. Surgeons can make several small cuts instead of one large cut, each typically no more than a half-inch long. Yet laparoscopic surgeries are not without risk. Even highly used surgical robots, such as the da Vinci robot, have had their share of issues. Complications can occur due to the patient’s condition and the type of surgery being performed.

A Johns Hopkins study in 2018 claims that more than 250,000 people in the United States die every year from medical errors. Other reports claim the numbers to be as high as 440,000. At that time, medical errors are the third-leading cause of death, after heart disease and cancer. Hospitals make more money when they make mistakes, and reducing mistakes could actually cut into a hospital’s profits, according to a study by the managing director at the Boston Consulting Group, reported in The New York Times.

Abstract:
The medical industry is faced with new devices and technology on a regular basis. The multiple goals of these devices and technologies vary, depending on the user’s angle. Ultimately, they hopefully provide the best care for patients in the most efficient way possible, while containing costs and maintaining patient safety. Recent studies have found that rapid implementation of new medical technology — surgical devices, electronic health records, monitoring systems and other tools — can lead to adverse patient events when implementation is not thoughtfully and carefully integrated into the workflow. This integration requires not only a thorough understanding of how the new tools work, but also of how they can be safely integrated into the system — including an analysis of human factors, such as in environments where people interact with these devices repetitively or in high-pressure situations.

Abstract:
Electronic health records (EHR) are critical to precision medicine. They provide greater patient access to medical history data and are available quickly. But there are many inherent risks in using these records. According to a new study, even in long-standing EHR systems such as the one used by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) health care system, many significant EHR-related safety concerns remain. In a study of investigations of EHR-related safety violations launched through the VA’s Informatics Patient Safety office (IPS) from 2009 to 2013, researchers looked at 100 closed cases at 55 VA facilities. Of those cases, 74 involved unsafe technology, and 25 involved unsafe use of technology, which the researchers of the study wrote “most commonly involved the dimensions of people, clinical content, workflow and communication, and human interface.” A majority of cases (70 percent) involved both unsafe technology and unsafe use.

Electronic Medical Records (EMR) are the digital version of paper charts. They are the electronic record of an individual’s health-related information that is created, gathered, managed, and consulted by licensed clinicians and staff [Refs. 1-3]. This article will focus on some of the challenges of health record integration between often disparate systems — internally, across a mix of systems, or externally, such as entities ranging from federal and state agencies, insurance companies, physician practices, medical facilities and pharmacies. The challenges of data collection, assimilation and integration remain at the forefront of our electronic medical record era [Refs. 1, 6-9]. Seamlessly moving information across disparate information systems becomes even more challenging when the data involves confidential medical information.

Abstract:
The popular theory that human error, such as making the wrong diagnosis, operating on the wrong body part or administering the wrong medication, in itself causes harm to patients may not always be completely true. According to system safety theory and the “Swiss Cheese” theory of healthcare, at least two things have to go wrong for harm to occur. Usually, the primary cause is a poorly designed care system that allows human errors to happen. Each weakness in the system is called a “hazard.” A human error is a trigger event that finally results in the harm. Therefore, human error is a symptom of a poorly designed system, not necessarily the primary cause of harm. Using the analogy of a gun, the loaded gun is a hazard, while pulling the trigger can result in harm. If the gun is not loaded, the trigger (human error) is not an issue.

The objective of performing Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is to use sound risk management principles, coupled with innovative solutions that can assure high return on investment (ROI). Quality Guru Philip Crosby wrote in his book, Quality is Free, that quality is free if you do the right things at the right time. Essentially, the savings from avoiding fixes, process changes and lawsuits are much higher than the cost of doing things right. The principles of sound risk management, experienced by this paper’s co-author Dev Raheja as an international engineering management consultant over 30 years, include: Identifying risks Assessing risks Mitigating risks Orchestrating risk management Aiming at high ROI without compromising safety

Abstract:
A new technology, three-dimensional (3D) printing, has the potential to change the medical world. Objects are made by fusing or depositing materials, such as plastic, metal, powders, liquids or living cells, in layers to produce a 3D object. This technology started in manufacturing and was used to create spare parts for airplanes, eliminating the need for constructing manufacturing prototypes and producing new components within hours instead of weeks. The application of this technology in healthcare is growing. It is now used in the creation of customized prosthetics, implants and anatomical models. Its usage is expanding rapidly in other areas of healthcare, including pharmaceutical research regarding drug dosage forms, delivery and discovery.

Abstract:
Unique Device Identification (UDI) is a recent development to protect patients from hazards in medical devices. The UDI relates to adverse event reporting, identifying and analyzing devices in use. Currently, hospitals are unable to report many adverse events because the device identification has to be manually located — and often, they are not easily readable, or the person reporting makes an error in reading or documenting the identification information. If a cardiac monitor malfunctions, it’s critical for the information in the adverse event report to match the manufacturer’s product identification system; otherwise, the adverse event may go unreported to U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the device may not be recalled as soon as it should. The same urgency holds for a product recall sent from a manufacturer to the doctor, hospital or patient. An inability to identify the device affected by the recall could have potentially disastrous results for patients. In addition, if the device is for personal use, the user may not have access to information about the hazards other users of the device have experienced. With this new system, a user can easily search for hazards.

Design/methodology/approach – Policies in these three areas in seven high-income countries were compared. A comparative descriptive approach was taken in which each of the country-specialist authors supplied information on key policies and developments pertaining to primary care, quality improvement and information technology, supplemented with routine data. Findings – Each of the seven countries faces similar challenges with healthcare system performance, yet differs in emphasis on the three key policy areas; efforts in each are, at best, patchy. The authors conclude that there is substantial scope for policy makers to further emphasize primary care, quality improvement and information technology if aiming for high-performing healthcare systems. Originality/value – This is the first study to investigate policy-makers' commitment to key areas known to improve health system performance. The comparative method illustrates the different emphases that countries have placed on primary care, quality improvement and information technology development.

Abstract:
AbstractWorldwide, early intervention services for young people with recent-onset psychosis have been associated with improvements in outcomes, including reductions in hospitalization, symptoms, and improvements in treatment engagement and work/school participation. States have received federal mental health block grant funding to implement team-based, multi-element, evidence-based early intervention services, now called coordinated specialty care (CSC) in the USA. New York State’s CSC program, OnTrackNY, has grown into a 23-site, statewide network, serving over 1800 individuals since its 2013 inception. A state-supported intermediary organization, OnTrackCentral, has overseen the growth of OnTrackNY. OnTrackNY has been committed to quality improvement since its inception. In 2019, OnTrackNY was awarded a regional hub within the National Institute of Mental Health-sponsored Early Psychosis Intervention Network (EPINET). The participation in the national EPINET initiative reframes and expands OnTrackNY’s quality improvement activities. The national EPINET initiative aims to develop a learning healthcare system (LHS); OnTrackNY’s participation will facilitate the development of infrastructure, including a systematic approach to facilitating stakeholder input and enhancing the data and informatics infrastructure to promote quality improvement. Additionally, this infrastructure will support practice-based research to improve care. The investment of the EPINET network to build regional and national LHSs will accelerate innovations to improve quality of care.

Abstract:
Focus of health care data research has shifted towards configuring and handling e-health information from heterogeneous e-health administration entities in a Content Distribution Network (CDN) for gaining e-health benefits which may be a testing errand. In recent trends, CDNis typically is used to reserve e-health networking substance as ongoing images captured in real time sequences and ongoing videos. In mobile cloud computing, due to patient's movement, it is required for medicinal services professionals to bring information of patient health with quick access of e-health data to make effective choices and select medication. Caching and its invalidation mechanism will provide the solutions in effective e-health data availability. A lot of caching methodologies are proposed, such as the Scalable Asynchronous Cache Consistency Scheme (SACCS) which has demonstrated more versatility over others. In this article, the authors recommend another reserve reinstatement algorithm with SACCS in consideration that is dependent upon rule-based Least Profit Value.

Abstract:
Health plays a special role both for societies and economies. Regardless of the level of development of health systems and respective expenditures, they are struggling with shortage of resources. In case of Poland, this phenomenon also concerns significant deficiencies in other areas, including personnel. In the light of inevitable and necessary changes, this poses a serious risk both to the health security of Poles and successful implementation of modernization plans. Research carried out by employees of the Warsaw School of Economics highlighted the possibility of solving this problem through the use and development of leadership competences. This article is a starting point for a discussion on the role of the leadership in the process of changes in healthcare system.
