Abstract:
This system is concerned with the design and implementation of a community health information system which fulfils some of the local needs of fourteen nursing and para-medical professions in a district health authority, whilst satisfying the statutory requirements of the NHS Korner steering group for those professions. A national survey of community health computer applications, documented in the form of an applications register, shows the need for such a system. A series of general requirements for an informations systems design methodology are identified, together with specific requirements for this problem situation. A number of existing methodologies are reviewed, but none of these were appropriate for this application. Some existing approaches, tools and techniques are used to define a more suitable methodology. It is unreasonable to rely on one single general methodology for all types of application development. There is a need for pragmatism, adaptation and flexibility. In this research, participation in the development stages by those who will eventually use the system was thought desirable. This was achieved by forming a representative design group. Results would seem to show a highly favourable response from users to this participation which contributed to the overall success of the system implemented. A prototype was developed for the chiropody and school nursing staff groups of Darlington health authority, and evaluations show that a significant number of the problems and objectives of those groups have been successfully addressed; the value of community health information has been increased; and information has been successfully fed back to staff and better utilised.

Full text
Abstract:
As a discipline Management Information System (MIS) is relatively new. Its short history has been characterised with epistemological dialectism. The current conflict and debate about MIS inquiry is broadly between the advocates of the social systems and technical systems perspectives. Few authors have made positive contributions toward clarifying the meaning and nature of MIS, and the appropriate design framework for MIS development. This thesis adds to their effort by using a MIS designed and implemented through action research at the North Western Regional Health Authority. There are seven Chapters in this thesis. Chapters One and Two examine the nature of the problem addressed by this research; the project history, ontological assumptions and research strategy. Chapter Three examines the debate, nature and conflicting views about MIS. It defines the theoretical problem addressed by this thesis and proposes a new concept of MIS. The theoretical problems are dealt with in Chapter Four. In Chapter Five the application of the theoretical concepts developed in Chapter Four is demonstrated in the design of MIS. Chapter Six relates some of the findings of this thesis to the work of other authors. It also examines the problem of human inquiry and the suitability of action research for MIS research. The main findings of this research summarised in Chapter Seven provide a new perspective of MIS as a purposeful system; the taxonomy of purposeful systems; primary context and secondary context of MIS; context analysis and context evaluation of MIS.

Abstract:
This thesis sheds light on differences in health insurance enrolment determinants and uptake barriers between urban and rural areas in the Jirapa district of Ghana. The National Health Insurance Scheme in Ghana has made significant progress in terms of enrolment, which has had a commensurate increase in utilization of health care services. However, there are challenges that pose a threat to the scheme’s transition to universal coverage; enrolment in the scheme has not progressed according to plan, and there are many barriers known to impede uptake of health care. Interestingly, these barriers vary in relation to locality, and rural residents appear to carry a disproportionate portion of the burden. A mixed method approach was employed to collect and analyse the data. On the basis of the primary qualitative and quantitative results, the thesis argues that the costs of enrolling and accessing health care is disproportionately higher for rural residents than it is their urban counterparts. It also highlights that the distribution of service benefits both in terms of the NHIS and health care in the Jirapa district favours urban residents. Lastly, the thesis found that whereas rural residents prefer health care provision to be social in nature, urban residents were more interested in the technical quality aspects of care. These findings suggest that rural residents are not benefitting from, or may not be accessing health services to the extent as their urban counterparts. Affordability, long distance to health facilities, availability and acceptability barriers were found to influence the resultant pro-urban distribution of the overall health care benefit.

Abstract:
Background This work in child population medicine describes child health problems, increases knowledge of health services, systems, and wider determinants, and makes recommendations for improvements. Aims To explore trends in UK child health and health service quality and highlight policy lessons from the UK and other European countries To study child health and health services in western Europe and derive lessons from different approaches to common challenges To enhance knowledge on child to adult transition care To describe trends in UK and EU15+ child and adolescent mortality and seek explanations for deteriorating UK health system performance, and make recommendations for improving survival Methods Population level measures of health status and system performance; primary and secondary research on policies and practice for health system assessments. Quantitative: mortality rate trends, excess deaths, DALYs, healthcare processes Qualitative: case reports, system descriptions, analyses  Results European child survival has improved, but variably between countries. The UK has not matched recent EU mortality gains. There are 6,000 excess deaths annually in children under 15 years in EU14 countries. There are child survival inequities; countries investing in social protection have lower mortality. Children in the UK, compared with other EU countries, are more likely to be poor than adults. Non-communicable diseases are now dominant causes of child death, disease, and disability. Mortality, processes, and outcomes of healthcare amenable conditions varies between countries. Better outcomes seem to be associated with flexible health care models promoting cooperation, team working, and transition. Conclusions Child health in Europe is improving, but unevenly. Child health systems are not adapting sufficiently to meet needs. Recommendations are made for improving health systems and services.
How do European countries compare when it comes to child health statistics? How do different child health services, systems, and wider determinants impact long term influences for good or harm? Why do some countries seem to do better than others in safeguarding their children’s and young people’s health and wellbeing? And what can we  do to make things better for children? This thesis explores some of these difficult but important issues, and despite describing some serious signals of concern about child health, offers recommendations and clear ways forward for countries to ensure healthier futures for children.

Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 60-62).
The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) provides care to over eight million Veterans and operates over 1,700 sites of care distributed across twenty-one regional networks in the United States. Health care providers within VHA report large seasonal variation in the demand for services, especially in healthcare systems located in the southern U.S. that experience a large influx of "snowbirds" during the winter. Since the majority of resource allocation activities are carried out through a single annual budgeting process at the start of the fiscal year, the seasonal load imposed by "traveling Veterans," defined as Veterans that seek care at VHA sites outside of their home network, make providing high quality services more difficult. This work constitutes the first major effort within VHA to understand the impact of traveling Veterans. We found a significant traveling Veteran population (6.6% of the total number of appointments), distributed disproportionately across the VHA networks. Strong seasonal fluctuations in demand were also discovered, particularly for the VA Bay Pines Healthcare System, in Bay Pines, Florida. Our analysis further indicated that traveling Veterans imposed a large seasonal load (up to 46%) on the Module A clinic at Bay Pines. We developed seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) models to help the clinic better forecast demand for its services by traveling Veterans. Our models were able to project demand, in terms of encounters and unique patients, with significantly less error than the traditional historical average methods. The SARIMA model for uniques was then used in a Monte Carlo simulation to understand how clinic resources are utilized over time. The simulation revealed that physicians at Module A are over-utilized, ranging from a minimum of 92.6% (June 2013) to maximum 207.4% (January 2013). These results evince the need to reevaluate how the clinic is currently staffed. More broadly, this research presents an example of how simple operations management methods can be deployed to aid operational decision-making at other clinics, facilities, and medical centers both within and outside VHA.

Field, Kenneth Spencer. "Modelling health care utilization : an applied Geographical Information Systems approach." Thesis, University of Northampton, 1998. http://nectar.northampton.ac.uk/2708/.

Full text
Abstract:
This research has emanated from the geographical concerns raised by organisational change in the British National Health Service (NHS), namely the ongoing debate relating to health and health care inequalities. This thesis develops a flexible, portable and predictive model of health care utilization capable of assisting improved health care planning and analysis. In so doing it contributes to the current resurgence in medical geography. An applied approach to this research is identified which builds upon methods of modelling spatial patterns and processes in geography and the upsurge of interest in Geographical Information Systems (GIS) technology. In these terms, the use of GIS is central to the research; it supports construction and application of the model; facilitates a wide range of analyses; and provides a basis for visualisation and interpretation of model results. The value of modelling in analysing relationships between health inequalities and the location and allocation of health care is identified through a discussion of previous NHS policy initiatives and previous research. From this, a conceptual model of utilization is developed which incorporates components of need, accessibility and provision. A patient survey of asthmatics and diabetics informs the development of the model and validates the choice of indicators used to measure utilization. Indicators of need, accessibility and utilization are thus defined and subsequently measured using a signed chi-square scoring method. The model was developed and tested for primary care General Practitioner services in the Northampton District Health Authority area and outcome measures are proposed and evaluated. Rigorous testing of the model’s sensitivity and robustness is undertaken and potential for its simplification explored. Components are critically evaluated through a comparison with alternative methods of determining spatial inequalities in disadvantage. The potential of the model of utilization for health care planning and analysis is extensively demonstrated through the application of a variety of modelled scenarios. Emergent issues from the research are considered and potential for future geographical research in this area of study, and the impact upon research agendas more generally, is explored

Full text
Abstract:
This research explores the contribution which systems theories, methodologies and models can make in the design and application of effective performance-evaluation processes. Approaches to performance assessment of organisations are reviewed, and the history and structure of the NHS, its objectives, and dimensions for evaluation are described. Drawing on questionnaire and interview data from health service and civil service staff, and secondary data, current performance evaluation and planning processes in the NHS are described and some problems identified. To test the hypothesis that attention to systemic factors could improve performance evaluation, eight topics are analysed by the application of systems methodologies or models. Four of the topic and methodology or model combinations have received detailed analysis: 1. Making and implementing strategic plans; the Open University's Hard Systems Methodology. 2. Controlling NHS performance through structure and process, e. g. the use of annual reviews, performance indicators; double-loop learning and cybernetic control model. 3. Improving the quality of NHS care; Stafford Beer's Viable System Model. 4. Assessing performance through the outcomes of care; Peter Checkland's Soft Systems Methodology. The areas studied in less detail are: 5. Planning for uncertainty and complexity; 6. Issues related to the politics of health; 7. Reducing the length of waiting lists and times; 8. Planning for health (health promotion and the prevention of ill health).

Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a tremendous negative impact on economies of most countries around the world. COVID-19 has disrupted the ability of health systems to deliver on essential health services and has also exposed pre-existing vulnerabilities and inequities in public health systems. According to a key informant survey conducted by WHO, over one year into the COVID-19 pandemic, there still exist substantial disruptions to essential health services. This rapid review examines evidence on successful interventions that could enable adaptive approaches to help manage and respond future pandemics and mitigate the risk of collapse of the public health systems. Countries must use the opportunity provided by the deployment of COVID-19 vaccines to strengthen health services and health systems and find long-lasting solutions for similar future challenges. The review notes that there still exist gaps in preparedness and response to the Covid-19 pandemic. New variants of concern threaten the effectiveness of existing COVID-19 vaccines, vaccine hesitancy slowing rollout, including in Africa, and interrupted and limited supply of COVID-19 tools. More funding is required though to scale up adaptive measures which are working, accelerating new approaches and innovations to improve service delivery. This review also highlights briefly the plight of marginalised social groups, people living with disabilities, women and children during the pandemic. According to estimates by Global Fund, Gavi, Global Financing Facility, access to life-saving health interventions for women, children and adolescents in 36 of the world’s poorest countries has dropped by as much as 25% due to COVID-19. Countries must build on the momentum of health innovations during the COVID-19 crisis to build more resilient health systems that can withstand disruptions by future pandemics.

Abstract:
Women who seek emergency treatment for abortion complications—bleeding, infection, and injuries to the reproductive tract system—should be a priority group for reproductive health care programs. These women often receive poor-quality services that do not address their multiple health needs. They may be discharged without counseling on postoperative recuperation, family planning (FP), or other reproductive health (RH) issues. Women who have had an induced abortion due to an unwanted pregnancy are likely to have a repeat abortion unless they receive appropriate FP counseling and services. Preventing repeat unsafe abortions is important for RH programs because it saves women's lives, protects women’s health, and reduces the need for costly emergency services for abortion complications. At the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development, the world's governments called for improvements in postabortion medical services. As part of the resulting international postabortion care initiative, the Population Council’s Operations Research and Technical Assistance projects worked collaboratively to conduct research on interventions to improve postabortion care. This brief summarizes the major findings of this research and relevant studies by other international organizations.
