Abstract:
Occupational accidents can occur in hospitals due to not optimal K3 management in hospitals. This study aims to find out how the Commitment to Implement Occupational Safety and Health (K3) Management in Hospitals is described. The research design used a descriptive qualitative method. The results of this study indicate that the commitment to implementing K3 management at Laburan Baji General Hospital Makassar has not been effective and has not been maximized. From the aspect of OHS Policy, the hospital is making an OHS policy, the hospital's OHS regulations and procedures are being improved, the hospital's OHS culture is not yet effective, the workforce's knowledge of hospital OHS is not maximized, and the hospital's OHS infrastructure is incomplete.

Abstract:
American hospitals are required to provide emergency medical care to the uninsured. We use previously confidential hospital financial data to study the resulting uncompensated care, medical care for which no payment is received. Using both panel-data methods and case studies, we find that each additional uninsured person costs hospitals approximately $800 each year. Increases in the uninsured population also lower hospital profit margins, suggesting that hospitals do not pass along all uncompensated-care costs to other parties such as hospital employees or privately insured patients. A hospital's uncompensated-care costs also increase when a neighboring hospital closes. (JEL G22, I11, I13, L25)

Abstract:
The strategies that hospitals participating in Medicare Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) use to achieve quality and cost containment goals are poorly understood. One possibility is that participating hospitals could try to influence where their patients receive care. To test this hypothesis, we examined whether a hospital’s participation in a Medicare ACO was associated with changes in its patterns of patient sharing with other hospitals. Between 2010 and 2014, patient sharing across hospitals increased 23.3%. After controlling for hospital and regional factors, patient sharing increased 4.4% more at ACO hospitals than non-ACO hospitals ( p = .001 for difference). This increase occurred disproportionately among hospitals with which ACO hospitals already shared a high proportion of their patients prior to participation, and among hospitals in ACOs characterized as physician–hospital collaborations. The increased sharing of patients among closely affiliated hospitals may serve to achieve ACO quality and cost containment goals through increased interorganizational coordination.

Abstract:
This research effort is undertaken to determine the impact that one hospital’s diversion status has on other hospitals in a region and the strength of these interactions. The conditional probability of one hospital going on diversion given that another is already on diversion is evaluated. Based on this analysis, the strength of interactions among the hospitals is established. Through statistical analyses of historical data, the strength of the mutual effects of diversion among a collection of hospitals is determined. These effects are mutual if one hospital’s diversion status affected another’s, then the reverse was also true. The intensity of these interactions between hospitals is varied, some being stronger than others. The model illustrates an approach to studying the cascading effects of diversion among hospitals in a region. This is important, because the status of any hospital in a region can signal the likelihood of impending diversion in every other hospital in the region. This allows actions that might prevent the occurrence of diversion or mitigate the cascading effects of Emergency Medical Systems diversion.

Abstract:
PurposeThis paper aims to investigate the efficiency implications of belonging to a strategic hospital alliance (SHA) and measuring the effects over capacity utilization of such agreements in a Mexican healthcare context.Design/methodology/approachData Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is the nonparametric methodology used, which supports both objectives. Technological gaps ratios are calculated by using DEA-metafrontier approach to compare efficiency between SHA members and a hospital’s control group. Also, hospital capacity utilization ratios are used as the maximum rate of output possible from fixed inputs in a frontier setting using directional distance functions. Data were collected from an alliance called Consorcio Mexicano de Hospitales in México, which has 29 general private hospitals and a group of 47 hospitals with same characteristics from a database made by the Instituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía for year 2014.FindingsThe results indicate that efficiency is better at hospitals that belong to an alliance; it also shows an improvement of installed capacity management for hospital alliances in México.Originality/valueThe results can be useful for both private health organization managers and regulators themselves to adopt management practices that may end up having a favorable impact on cost and prices containment. Additionally, there are no previous studies neither in Mexico nor in Latin America that analyze the impact of strategic hospitality alliances on the efficiency and utilization of the capacity of private hospitals.

Full text
Abstract:
Context: Toxic leadership becomes a real problem in nursing administration. Its toxicity harms the nursing staff's progress and creates a challenging work environment full of struggles that, in turn, produce adverse outcomes on the nursing staff's commitment toward the organization. Aim: This study envisioned to compare toxic leadership among intensive care nursing staff at Tanta University Hospital and El Menshawy hospital and assess its relation to their conflict management style used and organizational commitment at the two hospitals. Methods: A descriptive, comparative, via cross-sectional research design was applied. All intensive care units at Tanta University Hospitals and El-Menshawy General Hospital were included. All available nurses (n=544) at Tanta University hospitals' ICUs (n=301) and El-Menshawy hospital's ICUs (n=243) was incorporated. Toxic leadership, conflict management styles assessment, and organizational commitment scales were utilized to achieve this study's aim. Results: The nursing staff perceived that their leaders had high 10.6%, 11.5%, and moderate 12%, 11.9% overall toxic leadership levels at Tanta University Hospitals, and Elmenshawy Hospital, respectively. 43.9% of the nursing staff had a high level of using compromising style to manage conflict with their supervisors at Tanta University hospitals contrasted to 36.6% using competing style at El Menshawy hospital. 78.4% of the nursing staff had a low level of overall organizational commitment at Tanta University hospital's ICUs compared to 63% at El-Menshawy General hospital's ICUs. Conclusion: Toxic leadership affected the nursing staff's choice of conflict management style used when handling conflict with toxic leaders at two hospitals and had a negative effect on affective and normative dimensions of organizational commitment in both hospitals. Therefore, improving leadership experiences is necessary by conducting a leadership development program to meet the nursing staff's expectations and improve their commitment. Also, adjusting the hospital's policies is vital to permit nursing staffs' involvement in leadership evaluation as a mean for early detection of leaders' toxic behaviors.

Abstract:
Objective: To test whether hospital closures hurt or help surrounding hospitals financially. Do hospital closures improve marketefficiency or do they merely shift the least profitable patients to hospitals that can better cross-subsidize them?Methods: Using California hospital data from 2000 to 2011, the analysis employed random-effect and fixed-effect models to testfor a change in operating margin before and after a series of 2004, 2007 and 2009 hospital closures (the highest volume years forclosures). The main independent variable was each hospital’s predicted percent increase in patient volume due to absorption fromclosing hospitals. We used 5-digit zip code and DRG patient flow data to predict the number of patients each open hospital wouldabsorb from nearby hospital closures.Results: Hospitals experiencing the biggest increase in patient volume due to nearby hospital closings saw a drop in operatingmargin following those closures. This drop could not be explained by changes in payer mix or reimbursement type for thosepatients.Conclusions: Our results suggest that hospital closures are shifting high cost patients to open hospitals, not necessarily improving efficiency in the market.

Abstract:
Noise pollution in hospitals is known to affect the health of patients, but it also impacts the staff. Most of a hospital’s environment is affected by the sounds of equipment and machines with high sound pressure levels (SPL). We directed the study of both quantitative aspects to reduce SPL and qualitative research which considers the soundscapes of hospitals and people's perceptions. The main goal of this study was to do an assessment of the noise pollution in hospitals in Brazil and USA to investigate the effects on the health care community and patients. The objectives were: 1) Implement a sound mapping, day and night, in different units of the hospital; 2) Characterize the variations of the SPL of the various noise sources in the hospital's care units; 3) Develop and apply a qualitative assessment based on the opinion of users of the hospital in relation to the noise perceived by them; 4) Establish/propose an analytical-experimental model based on correlations of objective data and subjective data. This study identified metrics that can be applied as an intervention plan and prevention to reduce noise pollution in hospitals in Brazil and in the USA that could be implemented by other institutions, locally and internationally.

Abstract:
Hospitals are part of the critical infrastructure and are incredibly vulnerable. Unexpected events may hinder the functioning of institutions, causing severe damage and loss of asset value and quality of service. Every hospital should be prepared for such incidents with well-developed plans and strategies. A hospital can be an ideal target for a terrorist, because a lot of civilians are taken care of (and are open) 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Unfortunately, in recent years have taken place more and more terrorist acts. (eg: 13th November 2015 Paris, and 22nd March 2016., Brussels). How are hospitals prepared for these events in Hungary and abroad? Are the Hospitals Disaster Management Plans sufficient? What kind of terrorist attacks can occur in a hospital (e.g. cyber terrorism)? In my essay I am looking for the answers to these questions and introducing the concept of hospital safety and security.

Hospital organizations have an important role in the market due to its economic, social function and to promote health to the people. They are complex and unique institutions, given the history, structure, variety of employees, local legislation, among other features. As part of hospital management, hospitality has received much emphasis on the aspects of humanization of care and in shaping the strategy associated with increased efficiency and competitiveness. To make the stay of the patient experience more enjoyable and make life easier for doctors who serve the institution, many hospitals are creating additional services using the tools from the service industry, especially hotels. The aim of this study is to analyze the hospitality management in philanthropic hospitals of excellence located in the city of São Paulo and understand how they work toward these new services. To analyze the hospitality management, we chose a reference group of hospitals in the Brazilian health system with Certificado de Entidade Beneficente de Assistência Social (philanthropic), accredited and considered to be of excellence by the Brazilian Health Department. We adopted an approach empirical-analytic, by conducting multiple case studies. The results of the study have identified that the hospitality management is not a differentiation factor or a competitive advantage but a case of leveling between the studied hospitals a way that allow to provide the same service level offered by other hospitals of excellence
As organizações hospitalares têm um importante papel no mercado por sua função econômica, social e por promover a saúde. São instituições complexas e particulares, dada a história, a estrutura, a variedade da mão de obra, a legislação local, entre outras características. No âmbito da gestão hospitalar, a hotelaria tem recebido destaque tanto nos aspectos de humanização do atendimento quanto na conformação da estratégia associada ao aumento de eficiência e competitividade. Para transformar a estada do paciente em uma experiência mais prazerosa e facilitar a vida dos médicos que atendem na instituição, muitos hospitais estão criando serviços adicionais utilizando as ferramentas da indústria de serviços, especialmente dos hotéis. O objetivo deste estudo é analisar a gestão da hotelaria hospitalar em instituições hospitalares filantrópicas de excelência localizadas na cidade de São Paulo e entender como elas atuam frente a esses serviços. Para analisar a gestão da hotelaria hospitalar, escolhemos um grupo de hospitais referência na saúde brasileira, portadores de Certificado de Entidade Beneficente de Assistência Social (filantrópicos), acreditados e considerados de excelência pelo Ministério da Saúde. Adotamos abordagem metodológica empíricoanalítica, por meio da condução de estudos de casos múltiplos. Os resultados do estudo permitiram identificar que a gestão da hotelaria hospitalar não é um fator de diferenciação e de vantagem competitiva, mas sim de equiparação entre esses hospitais estudados um caminho para não deixar de disponibilizar o mesmo nível de serviço oferecido pelos demais hospitais de excelência

Abstract:
Situações críticas e emergenciais permeiam todos os setores do hospital, mas ocorrem prioritariamente no Pronto-Socorro e nas Unidades de Terapia Intensiva. Estes cenários são marcados por sofrimento físico e emocional intensos; limites de diversas ordens; imprevisibilidade; vivências de perdas e morte. Vivências que geram uma angústia que pode ultrapassa o limiar de contenção dos atores nesse cenário pacientes, familiares e equipe de saúde e implicam a necessidade de intervenção psicológica. A interconsulta psicológica é uma modalidade de intervenção que permite considerar a demanda institucional, que inclui a subjetividade nas relações da equipe, e a assistência psicológica aos pacientes e a seus familiares. O presente trabalho utilizou o método da pesquisa clínico-qualitativa para descrever o serviço de interconsulta psicológica nas unidades de emergências médicas do Instituto Central do Hospital das Clínicas FMUSP. São apresentados cinco relatos de interconsulta, a partir das intervenções junto aos pacientes e junto aos profissionais envolvidos no caso (médicos, auxiliares de enfermagem, enfermeiros e assistentes sociais). Os casos foram analisados por meio do referencial psicanalítico freudiano e evidenciaram que nas unidades de emergência existem urgências físicas e subjetivas, cujo impacto atinge o paciente, seus familiares e os profissionais que se relacionam com ele. A relação pacienteprofissional de saúde aparece repleta de conteúdos inconscientes e transferenciais A equipe vivencia sofrimentos psíquicos relacionados a identificações com o paciente e principalmente ao sentimento de impotência. Observa-se que esse sofrimento interfere na conduta do profissional e, conseqüentemente, na assistência que ele oferece. A intervenção da psicóloga interconsultora permitiu a explicitação de conflitos inconscientes e a intermediação das relações entre pacientes e equipe de saúde.
Critical situations and emergencies are present in all the areas of the hospital, however, they do occur at the emergency rooms and Intensive Care Units. The core traits of these pictures are physical and mental suffering, several ways of limitations, unpredictability as well as loss and death experiences. Such exposures engender anguish which can get out of control of the people involved in the situations patients, their families, hospital staff therefore psychological intervention is necessary. Psychological consultation-liaison is a way of intervention which takes into account the institutional demand, the subjectivity among the team relationships and the psychological assistance to the patients and their families. The present work makes use of a clinic-qualitative study describing the consultation-liaison psychology service in emergency medical units of the Central Institute of Hospital das Clínicas FMUSP. There are five reports described resulting from the intervention in patient and other staff members involved in the case (doctors, nurses, nurse assistants and social workers).The cases were analyzed through the Freudian frames of reference and showed that there are subjective and physical urgencies which impacts the patients, theirs families and the staff in contact with them. The relationship hospital staff-patient presents itself to be full of unconscious and transferential contents. The team experiences mental suffering which is related to their identification with the patient and, mainly, to their feeling of impotence. It was noticed that this suffering influences the professional behavior and consequently the assistance he will offer. The intervention made by the interconsulting psychologist enabled the disclosure of unconscious conflicts and the intermediation of the relationship between the hospital staff and the patients.

A acreditação é o procedimento de avaliação dos recursos institucionais, voluntário, periódico, reservado e sigiloso, que tende a garantir a qualidade da assistência através de padrões previamente aceitos. Este trabalho foi realizado no Hospital Geral de Caxias do Sul (HG), entidade de ensino sem fins lucrativos que atende exclusivamente ao Sistema Único de Saúde, localizado na Serra Gaúcha. Esta dissertação teve por objetivo verificar a percepção dos profissionais da área de saúde na implantação do processo de Acreditação Nível I – ONA, bem como identificar as estratégias utilizadas pelos profissionais de saúde para a manutenção do processo de Acreditação e a organização dos processos assistenciais e administrativos do hospital. Também foram analisados os pontos fortes e fracos diagnosticados pela instituição acreditadora. A metodologia utilizada foi documental, qualitativa e quantitativa, com objetivos exploratórios e descritivos. Foi utilizada a análise de conteúdo segundo Bardin (2010) para o tratamento e interpretação dos dados qualitativos e na quantitativa com a utilização da escala Likert, os dados foram analisados através de estatística descritiva, teste t de studente análise de variância não paramétrica. Os resultados mostraram que, após o processo de acreditação, os profissionais da área da saúde perceberam melhoria da qualidade da assistência. E na perspectiva desses profissionais, o engajamento, a responsabilidade, o envolvimento, a motivação, a participação no planejamento, o acesso a recursos materiais e a facilidade para se adaptar ao processo foram os fatores que mais contribuíram para a percepção de melhoria da qualidade da assistência prestada, também relatado pelos gerentes e diretores a mudança na cultura da instituição. Espera-se que este estudo traga subsídios teóricos para que hospitais com a característica da instituição estudada utilizem estas informações na reorganização de seus processos assistenciais e administrativos com a finalidade de alcançar a certificação desejada. Como sugestão de trabalhos futuros, realizar o comparativo entre técnicos de enfermagem e enfermeiros para identificar a existência de diferenças na percepção e também avaliar suas percepções e comprometimento para a busca do Nível II da Acreditação Hospitalar.

Accreditation is the procedure for the evaluation of institutional resources, volunteer, periodic, secretive and confidential, which tends to ensure the quality of care through previously accepted standards. This work was performed at the Hospital General de Caxias do Sul (HG), a nonprofit education organization that caters exclusively to the single Health System, located in the Serra Gaúcha. This dissertation aimed to verify the perceptions of health professionals in the implementation of the accreditation process level I-ONA, as well as identify the strategies used by health professionals for the maintenance of the accreditation process, and the Organization of assistance and administrative processes of the hospital. Was also analyzed the strengths and weaknesses identified by the accrediting institution institution. The methodology used was qualitative and quantitative, exploratory and descriptive purposes. Content analysis was used according to Bardin (2010) for the treatment and interpretation of qualitative and quantitative data with the use of Likert scale, data were analyzed through descriptive statistics, student's t-test and analysis of variance not parametric. The results showed that after the accreditation process, the health professionals perceived improvement in quality of care, and in the perspective of these professionals, engagement, responsibility, involvement, motivation, participation in planning, access to material resources and to adapt to the process were the factors that contributed most to the perception of improvement of the quality of the assistance It was also reported by managers and directors to change the culture of the institution. It is hoped that this study bring theoretical subsidies to hospitals with the characteristic of institution studied to use this information in the reorganization of their assistance and administrative processes in order to achieve the desired certification. As a suggestion for future work, perform the comparison between nursing technicians and nurses to identify the existence of differences in perception and also assess their perceptions and commitment to the pursuit of the level II hospital accreditation.

Abstract:
Este trabalho tem como objetivo discutir as possibilidades e dificuldades de um psicanalista quando passa a compor uma equipe multidisciplinar de atendimento a pacientes amputados em reabilitação com prótese. A equipe de saúde tem papel fundamental no atendimento ao paciente amputado que realiza reabilitação. Pensa-se que há diferença para este trabalho o fato de haver na equipe um psicanalista, que atua de um lugar diferente dos outros membros, representantes do discurso médico. Para se compreender o que ocorre quando há um psicanalista na equipe de saúde são abordadas as diferenças entre os campos da psicologia hospitalar e da psicanálise dentro de uma equipe; as diferenças entre os discursos médico e psicanalítico, o estatuto do corpo para a psicanálise, e as bases de sustentação para que um analista se constitua enquanto tal. Além disso, são tratados o estatuto do corpo na contemporaneidade e a questão da deficiência, pontos cruciais no atendimento ao paciente com amputação. Por último, busca-se uma compreensão, do ponto de vista psíquico, para a amputação e reabilitação do paciente, levando-se em conta que o atendimento prestado a ele é permeado pelas questões enfrentadas pela equipe multidisciplinar
This paper aims to discuss the possibilities and difficulties of a psychoanalyst when she begins to compose a multidisciplinary team to care of patients with amputation in rehabilitation with a prosthesis. The health team has a key role in patient care that is in rehabilitation. It is thought that there is a difference to the treatment if there is a psychoanalyst in this team, who works in a different way from the other members, representatives of medical discourse. To understand what happens when there is a psychoanalyst in the health care team, this paper points the differences between the fields of health psychology and psychoanalysis within a team, the differences between the medical and psychoanalytical discourses, the status of the body for psychoanalysis and bases of support for an analyst to be constituted as such. Moreover, this paper treats about the status of the body in contemporary and deficiency issues, what is crucial for the patient with amputation. Finally, it seeks an understanding of the psychological point of view of amputation and rehabilitation of the patient, taking into account that the service provided to him is permeated for issues facing the multidisciplinary team

O estudo analisa estratégias de mercado adotadas por hospitais gerais privados brasileiros de grande porte (acima de 150 leitos). Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa de casos múltiplos, com dados coletados a partir de entrevistas semiestruturadas. Inclui cinco hospitais localizados no município de São Paulo, classificados em três grupos a partir do binômio modelo de propriedade (com ou sem fins lucrativos) e clientela atendida (beneficiários de seguros e planos de saúde e usuários do SUS): Grupo 1, hospitais (H1, H2, H3) sem fins lucrativos, atendem sobretudo beneficiários de operadoras de planos privados de assistência à saúde; Grupo 2, hospital (H4) com fins lucrativos, atende sobretudo beneficiários de operadoras de planos privados de saúde; Grupo 3, hospital (H5) sem fins lucrativos, atende sobretudo usuários do SUS. Foram entrevistados em cada hospital três gestores ou mais, entendidos como informantes-chave e em condições de responder sobre as estratégias adotadas. Os resultados mostram que as estratégias se desenvolvem a partir da combinação de avaliações dos ambientes externo e interno, segundo a visão baseada em recursos. Os hospitais H1 e H2, do Grupo 1, adotam a combinação de estratégia de diferenciação, melhor posicionamento em produto e busca da oferta de soluções totais ao cliente; H3 (Grupo 1) adota a combinação de estratégia de diferenciação com liderança em custo, maior aderência ao melhor posicionamento em produto do que a oferta de soluções totais ao cliente; H4 (Grupo 2) adota a combinação de diferenciação com liderança em custo, e ainda mais próximo do melhor posicionamento em produto do que as soluções totais ao cliente; H5(Grupo 3) adota a estratégia de liderança em custo, e melhor posicionamento em produto. Os hospitais do Grupo 1 apresentam alta densidade em tecnologia e no atendimento de casos de maior complexidade; o hospital do Grupo 2 apresenta uma situação intermediária na densidade em tecnologia e no atendimento de casos de maior complexidade; o hospital do Grupo 3 apresenta baixa densidade em tecnologia e no atendimento a casos de maior complexidade. Perante a saúde suplementar, os hospitais H1 e H2 apresentam posicionamento de alta qualidade e preços superiores; o H3 apresenta preços compatíveis aos produtos entregues; o H4 segue a média de mercado (pacientes das classes B e C); o H5 opera com a tabela do SUS e no privado com preços menores. A combinação do envelhecimento da população com menor taxa de natalidade, o crescimento de doenças crônicas, as receitas hospitalares vinculadas principalmente às taxas e serviços poderão conduzir a um modelo assistencial mais amplo, com maior concentração de mercado entre as operadoras de planos de saúde privados e entre hospitais; maior complementaridade entre o público e o privado, e funcionamento em redes de organizações mais integradas. A entrega de maior valor aos \'clientes\' será fundamental, com pagamentos baseados nessa entrega e não apenas em quantidade, além de novos modelos de relacionamentos com os médicos
The study analyzes marketing strategies adopted by large (over 150 beds) private general hospitals Brazilian. This is a qualitative study of multiple cases with data collected from semi-structured interviews. Includes five hospitals in the city of São Paulo, classified into three groups from the binomial property model (with or without profit) and clientele (beneficiaries of insurance and health plans and the SUS): Group 1, hospitals (H1, H2, H3) nonprofit cater mainly beneficiaries of operators of private health care, Group 2, hospital (H4) for profit, serves primarily beneficiaries of operators of private health plans, Group 3, hospital (H5) nonprofit, serves primarily the SUS. Three or more managers were interviewed in each hospital, seen as key informants and able to answer questions about the strategies adopted. The results show that strategies are developed from a combination of assessments of external and internal environments, according to the resource-based view. Hospitals H1 and H2, Group 1, adopt the combination of differentiation strategy, better positioning in product and in the way to offer total solutions to the client; H3 (Group 1) adopts the combination of differentiation strategy with cost leadership, greater adherence to the better positioning in product than the offer of total solutions to the client; H4 (Group 2) adopts the combination of differentiation with cost leadership, and even closer to the better positioning in product than the total solutions to the client; H5 (Group 3) adopts the strategy of cost leadership, and better positioning in product. Hospitals Group 1 feature high density technology and care of more complex cases, the hospital group 2 presents an intermediate situation in the density of technology and in the care of more complex cases, the Hospital Group 3 has a low density technology and in care to more complex cases. Given the health insurance, hospitals H1 and H2 have quality positioning and higher prices, the H3 features compatible prices for products delivered, H4 follows the market average (classes B and C patients), the H5 operates with the SUS and for private with lower prices. The combination of an aging population with a lower birth rate, growth of chronic diseases, hospital revenues primarily related to fees and services may be related to a broader model of care, with greater market concentration among operators of private health plans and also hospitals, greater complementarity between public and private networks and organizations working in more integrated. Delivering greater value to \'customers\' will be key, with payments based on this delivery and not only in the quantity, and new relationships models with physicians

Abstract:
This research effort is undertaken to determine the impact that one hospital’s diversion status has on other hospitals in a region and the strength of these interactions. The conditional probability of one hospital going on diversion given that another is already on diversion is evaluated. Based on this analysis, the strength of interactions among the hospitals is established. Through statistical analyses of historical data, the strength of the mutual effects of diversion among a collection of hospitals is determined. These effects are mutual if one hospital’s diversion status affected another’s, then the reverse was also true. The intensity of these interactions between hospitals is varied, some being stronger than others. The model illustrates an approach to studying the cascading effects of diversion among hospitals in a region. This is important, because the status of any hospital in a region can signal the likelihood of impending diversion in every other hospital in the region. This allows actions that might prevent the occurrence of diversion or mitigate the cascading effects of Emergency Medical Systems diversion.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the establishment of an archiepiscopal rule for Mainz’s hospital, and the hospital’s subsequent transfer to civic oversight. Studying how the hospital’s inclusion in the 1244 charter of civic liberties affected its claim to the privileges of religious status sheds new light on the transfer’s effects. I pursue the hospital’s late medieval history through 1462, when the archbishops of Mainz reasserted their political control over the city, and their rights over the administration of the hospital. I compare the civic hospitals of Worms and Speyer, and their relationships with civic and episcopal authority. Over the course of the later Middle Ages, civic hospitals in the Rhineland used their claims to religious status to carve out institutional independence.

This study explored the methods for hospitals to take corresponding measures to implement response measures from the perspective of epidemic crisis management. Through the analysis of the practical experience of each hospital, the crisis situation, the countermeasures, and the review of the hospital's rehabilitation methods. The research method is a case study method. The main sources of research data are interviews, internal hospital file data, and related journal articles and media reports. Research results: 1. This research explored the organizational behavior of the hospital and the strategic emergency points that it showed in the face of crisis. 2. "Transformative" leadership style, with timely and application-oriented management. 3. The implementation of epidemic prevention measures and response methods have gradually embarked on the right path from the chaos. 4. Faced with a shortage of anti-epidemic materials, hospitals have been working hard to deal with risk management. Based on the above findings, this research provides some policy recommendations for hospitals to mobilize and respond to similar viral diseases in the future so as to follow up with medical institutions for learning and reference.

Abstract:
Reading architecture through resilient witnesses like hospitals or healthcare facilities offers a tool for unlocking the elemental and generative principles of architecture and how architecture builds societies and vice versa. Every social class is treated by hospitals in that specific historical time. Medicine, healthcare, and habitations are interrelated keys to exploring how this infrastructure can help to heal and the con- tribution of resilience in the architecture’s role in shaping our society and its health. In this light health is considered a human right. Consequently, hospitals influence individual behaviors in advancing human rights. This paper is part of a theoretical framework over the archetype and organization form of the hospital architec- ture. For many years, the issue of form composition in architecture has been overridden in favor of a series of studies on phenomenology or information, ignoring the fundamental issue of the disci- pline of architecture, which is precisely related to the organization of form. Nowadays, the essence of composition in architecture often dominates our profession's fundamental principles. The subject of this paper is a historical excursus of hospital and their relation to the specific context and historical period. the formal organization of hospital architecture is analyzed and studied in the functional, tectonic, and compositional plans. This research tries to find the balanced con- nections between form, function, and composition in hospital design, considering their context and history. Beyond technicalities, this study focuses on understanding how the organization of a hospital can impact the function of a hospital, healing, and well-being. The investigation starts with a historical overview: how have hospitals changed and evolved over time, and what can we learn from the most important examples of each era in the past?

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: In the case-mix system, diagnostic codes are used as the basis for classifying health service rates. The inaccuracy of diagnosis and action codes may change the Indonesian Case Base Groups (INA-CBGs) codes which will affect on claim rates. Additionally, hospital characteristics also contribute to determining health service rates. This study aimed to describe the gap between hospital and INA-CBGs rates based on hospital characteristics. Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study conducted at hospitals X and Y in Surakarta, Central Java in 2020. A total of 100 inpatient medical records from two hospitals was selected for this study. Hospital X was a B-type private hospital, providing general medical services. Hospital Y was an A-type government hospital, providing specialized medical services. The study variables were hospital service and INA-CBGs claims. The data were reported descriptively. Results: Hospital characteristics, including class, type, and hospital ownership, had different health service claim rates. Hospital X had lower claim rates in 26 (52%) documents and higher claim rates in 24 (48%) documents than the actual hospital service rates. The total tariff of IDR 309,378,300 for services was claimed IDR 263,296,400 by BPJS based on INA-CBGs rate. A negative difference IDR 46,081,900 was obtained at hospital X. Hospital Y had lower claim rates in 18 (36%) documents and higher claim rates in 32 (64%) documents than the actual hospital service rates. The total tariff of IDR 160,587,531 for services was claimed IDR 260,321,400 by BPJS based on INA-CBGs rate. A positive difference IDR 99,733,869 was obtained at hospital Y. Conclusion: There was a gap in rates between hospitals and the accuracy of the diagnosis coded by INA-CBGs tariff policy. Private B-type hospitals, providing general medical services, received smaller claims and government type-A hospitals, providing specialized medical services received higher claims, than the actual service tariff.

Abstract:
<p>In order to control the spread of the COVID-19 epidemic across the country, China has used all available resources to build infectious disease hospitals in various ways. These hospitals include three modes and adapt to different disease levels: temporary emergency hospitals; makeshift hospitals by transforming public buildings; and existing general wards transformed into infectious wards. Through the practice of several projects, on the basis of the original standard system, China urgently issued a series of relevant standards and guidelines to guide the construction of temporary hospitals. As one of the earliest cases of temporary emergency infectious disease hospital, the Thunder God Mountain Hospital adopted a prefabricated modular design concept in plan design, plane design and component design, and also combined the application of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technology. Based on industrialized module processing and manufacturing, combined with an efficient on-site construction management system, the problem was solved of completing the construction in a very short time, which played a key role in controlling the epidemic situation.</p>

Abstract:
Hospitals are complex environments having to balance out contradictory requirements from patients and health workers. Despite evidence demonstrating the critical role of the hospital’s luminous environment in responding to occupants’ requirements and needs, and the importance of engaging with the patient experience to improve the quality of patient care, to date, no studies have articulated approaches to study conflicting occupants’ needs for lighting in context. This paper presents a semi-systematic literature review of disciplinary approaches to investigate quality lighting conditions in hospitals and subjective impressions of occupants. Research articles from the clinical, built environment, and lighting fields were selected and evaluated. The review outlined appropriate physical (i.e., photometric) and self-report (e.g., preferences) approaches for data collection in context and potential articulations between them. Mixed data collection and data analysis techniques are deemed essential to articulate lighting design strategies engaging with the requirements of hospital occupants on a 24-hour basis.

Hospital Information System must provide innovative services in digitals era. The interoperability systems made data interconnected between hospitals, health services and the ministry of health. This system is urgently needed to improve National health services. The aim of the study to assess the preparation, barriers and benefit of interoperability system implementation. The study was a systematic review of journal articles by assessing several databases, from Pubmed, Proquest, EBSCO, and Springer Link to identify relevant studies with PRISMA. The keyword is “Health Information Interoperability, Hospital and Implementation”. Ten articles were obtained which matched the inclusion and exclusion criteria. These articles explained how the system can be applied, from the preparation of the infrastructure, such as the standard systems that have been adopted, Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) from Health Level 7 (HL7). The barriers were the standardized data between hospitals with same vendors, so the hospitals were reluctant to implement it. The benefit was the hospital services improve quality in accuracy, legibility, completeness and consistency of documents. Hoped that interoperability can make health information systems more effective by preventing repeated examinations and so that can reduce health costs. This system is a big challenge throughout the world, the role of government and policymakers is needed in implementation.

Abstract:
This article aims to present a literature review on the importance of project management in the health area, especially in philanthropic hospitals, highlighting the transition of hospitals from entities focused exclusively on health care to comprehensive organizations that also seek excellence in administrative management, aiming at the growing need for effective management practices to ensure the quality and sustainability of hospital services. It describes the different types of project management offices - PMOs and highlights their importance in standardizing methodologies, reducing risks and establishing clear metrics. First, the historical context on the evolution of hospitals is presented, highlighting the growing importance of project management in this environment, as well as the need for improvements in administrative and financial management, especially in philanthropic hospitals, where financial sustainability is a constant challenge. Next, the implementation of Project Management Offices (PMOs) is discussed as an effective practice to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of hospital operations, presenting the different types of PMOs and highlighting their importance in standardizing methodologies, reducing risks and establishing clear metrics. Finally, the challenges faced during the implementation of EGPs are discussed, such as resistance to change and lack of understanding of project management techniques by health professionals.

Full text
Abstract:
We examine the impact of public hospitals openings in Mexico on maternal and infant mortality. Using administrative data from the period 2001 to 2019 and taking advantage of the variation in the timing of the opening of public hospitals across Mexican municipalities, we estimate a staggered difference-in-differences model using the Callaway and SantAnna (2021) estimator. In doing so, we compare municipalities where a public hospital started to operate against municipalities without a hospital in operation, before and after the opening. Preliminary results show that openings substantially reduced maternal mortality rate (24 maternal deaths per 100,000 births, which amounts to a 40% decrease) and infant mortality rate (192 infant deaths per 100,000 births, which amounts to a 14% decrease). We provide evidence that the decrease in maternal and infant mortality is driven by an increase in institutional deliveries. In addition, we show heterogeneity by the type of hospital and the existence of previous medical infrastructure. In particular, the effect is driven by the opening of level II hospitals, and the opening of the first hospital in a municipality. This research closes a gap in our understanding of the health effects of expanding healthcare infrastructure in the developing world.

Abstract:
This Missing Patients Research Guide contains directions for finding out more about Indigenous patients who entered tuberculosis (TB) sanatoriums and hospitals in Manitoba and never returned home. Part One of the guide presents helpful start-up information. First it explains how to gather useful details including names, dates, and locations that will help in the search as well as how to move forward with your research. Then it outlines three useful “Research Tips”: all of the various names of TB treatment hospitals in Manitoba commonly attended by Indigenous patients; instructions for undertaking database searches using keywords; and techniques for linking information between Indian Residential Schools and hospitals. Last, a “Research Case Study” demonstrates some of the techniques and challenges you may encounter when researching Vital Statistics and Indian Residential School records by looking at the lives of three TB patients, Elie Caribou, Joseph Michel, and Albert Linklater. Part Two of the guide explains how to research the location of patient burials associated with nine hospitals where Indigenous patients were treated in Manitoba, including treatment for TB: Dynevor Indian Hospital, Clearwater Lake Indian Hospital, Brandon Indian Sanatorium, Ninette Sanatorium, St. Boniface / St. Vital Sanatorium, Fort Churchill Military Hospital, Norway House Indian Hospital, Fisher River Indian Hospital and Pine Falls Indian Hospital at Fort Alexander. Some of the general research information found in Part One is repeated under the individual hospitals and sanatoriums along with the specific information that may assist in searching for missing patients at each location. At the end of the guide, in Appendix A, you will find a checklist to help you in your research. Appendix B provides contact information for the organizations mentioned in this guide so that you can reach out by phone, email, or mail. Appendix C discusses accessing the records held by The National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation.

Abstract:
This Rapid Evidence Scan examined the effectiveness of virtual hospital models of care. While no reviews evaluated a complete model, tele-healthcare only and tele-healthcare with remote telemonitoring interventions demonstrated similar or significantly better clinical or health system outcomes including reduced hospitalisations, readmissions, emergency department visits and length of stay, compared to usual care, including those delivered without home visits or face-to-face care. The use of the Internet showed mixed but promising results. The strongest evidence was for cardiac failure, coronary heart disease, diabetes and stroke rehabilitation. Nurses played a central role in home visiting, providing telephone support and education. However, the studies were heterogeneous and the results should be interpreted with caution.
