After devolution in 2001, the districts are responsible for decision-making for health resource management and improving health services, particularly preventive, promotive and curative health services provided from primary and secondary level care facilities and outreach. A major objective of the management of the district health system is to improve its performance in order to contribute to the improvement of the health status of the population. Regular monitoring of the performance of health care services and their supporting sub-systems (e.g., logistics, financial, human resource management systems) is the first step in the performance improvement function of the district.

  • MASS CASUALTY TRAUMA TRIAGE PARADIGMS and PITFALLS July 2019
    1 Mass Casualty Trauma Triage - Paradigms and Pitfalls EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Emergency medical services (EMS) providers arrive on the scene of a mass casualty incident (MCI) and implement triage, moving green patients to a single area and grouping red and yellow patients using triage tape or tags. Patients are then transported to local hospitals according to their priority group. Tagged patients arrive at the hospital and are assessed and treated according to their priority. Though this triage process may not exactly describe your agency’s system, this traditional approach to MCIs is the model that has been used to train American EMS As a nation, we’ve got a lot providers for decades. Unfortunately—especially in of trailers with backboards mass violence incidents involving patients with time- and colored tape out there critical injuries and ongoing threats to responders and patients—this model may not be feasible and may result and that’s not what the focus in mis-triage and avoidable, outcome-altering delays of mass casualty response is in care. Further, many hospitals have not trained or about anymore. exercised triage or re-triage of exceedingly large numbers of patients, nor practiced a formalized secondary triage Dr. Edward Racht process that prioritizes patients for operative intervention American Medical Response or transfer to other facilities. The focus of this paper is to alert EMS medical directors and EMS systems planners and hospital emergency planners to key differences between “conventional” MCIs and mass violence events when: • the scene is dynamic, • the number of patients far exceeds usual resources; and • usual triage and treatment paradigms may fail.

  • Whether Public Hospital Reform Affects the Hospital Choices of Patients in Urban Areas: New Evidence from Smart Card Data
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Article Whether Public Hospital Reform Affects the Hospital Choices of Patients in Urban Areas: New Evidence from Smart Card Data Fangye Du 1,2, Jiaoe Wang 1,2,* and Haitao Jin 3 1 Key Laboratory of Regional Sustainable Development Modeling, Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, 11A, Datun Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing 100101, China; [email protected] 2 College of Resources and Environment, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China 3 School of Computer, Beijing Information Science and Technology University, Beijing 100101, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The effects of public hospital reforms on spatial and temporal patterns of health-seeking behavior have received little attention due to small sample sizes and low spatiotemporal resolution of survey data. Without such information, however, health planners might be unable to adjust interventions in a timely manner, and they devise less-effective interventions. Recently, massive electronic trip records have been widely used to infer people’s health-seeking trips. With health- seeking trips inferred from smart card data, this paper mainly answers two questions: (i) how do public hospital reforms affect the hospital choices of patients? (ii) What are the spatial differences of the effects of public hospital reforms? To achieve these goals, tertiary hospital preferences, hospital bypass, and the efficiency of the health-seeking behaviors of patients, before and after Beijing’s public Citation: Du, F.; Wang, J.; Jin, H. hospital reform in 2017, were compared. The results demonstrate that the effects of this reform on the Whether Public Hospital Reform Affects the Hospital Choices of hospital choices of patients were spatially different.

  • Functional Positioning of City-Level Top Three Hospitals Based on Grading Diagnosis and Treatment
    2018 5th International Conference on Education, Management and Computing Technology (ICEMCT 2018) Functional Positioning of City-level Top Three Hospitals based on Grading Diagnosis and Treatment Chunyan Dai, Mingqiong Wang Qujing Medical College, Qujing, Yunnan, 655000, China Keywords: Grading Diagnosis, Prefecture-level top three hospital, Functional Position Abstract: Through the perspective of grading diagnosis and treatment, the status quo and hierarchical division of public hospitals were examined, the problems and shortcomings of current functional positioning were found, and the impact of medical order was analyzed. The functional evolution of public hospitals should follow the principle of hierarchical and differentiated development. Hospitals at all levels need to be relocated under the background of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment. 1. Introduction The basic functions of the hospital include prevention, health care, medical care and rehabilitation. Specifically, medical institutions use medical science and technology to provide medical, preventive, health care and rehabilitation services to patients, specific populations or healthy people. The function positioning of hospitals should be oriented to the actual health service needs of the population in the region. With the principle of optimizing and efficient medical resources allocation, it can provide fair basic medical services, effectively control medical costs, and provide suitable and continuous benefits for the masses. Health protection and services. This study focuses on the grading and functional orientation of public hospitals in China. This is of great significance for constructing a rational grading diagnosis and treatment pattern and forming an orderly diagnosis and treatment order to solve the problem of “difficult to see a doctor and expensive to see a doctor”.
