Hospitals, community healthcare providers and payers must go beyond their borders to create partnerships, networks and alliances (PNAs) in order to achieve an integrated, cost-effective and high- quality service environment. The specific model of collaboration is less important than ensuring the ability of institutions and their professionals to come together seamlessly. Such integration is not simple; it requires healthcare organizations to make purposeful, yet flexible, long-term decisions. © 2015 KPMG International Cooperative (“KPMG International”).

Health and the Market The public provision of health care constitutes a large percentage of the public spending budget of any major Western country. The establishment of the National Health Service in 1946 was rooted in the core principle of a comprehensive health service free at point of use, a principle that, broadly, still remains intact, despite growing colonization by the private sector. The cost of health provision is inevitably a pressure point in government expenditure, as resources are finite and the needs of health care are extensive. The growth of medical technology, expanded range of drug-based treatment, and rising life expectancy all push costs upwards. The National Health Service still constitutes, compared to other systems in the world, a remarkably efficient means of fulfilling health services delivery, with a high level of quality. In the United States, the enormous sums spent on health by the state and by individuals paying for insurance, combined with the lack of a proper publicly owned health system, has generated a large and profitable private sector.

  • A Better Pill to Swallow a Global View of What Works in Healthcare
    HEALTHCARE A Better Pill to Swallow A global view of what works in Healthcare KPMG INTERNATIONAL “The good news is that there are many more similarities than differences between national healthcare systems. The globalized nature of healthcare in developed countries offers the opportunity to share knowledge about what works like never before.” Mark Britnell Head of Healthcare for Europe, KPMG in the UK © 2010 KPMG International Cooperative (“KPMG International”), a Swiss entity. Member firms of the KPMG network of independent firms are affiliated with International. All rights reserved. Foreword Global healthcare: same diagnosis, similar remedies It is becoming increasingly evident that healthcare systems around the developed world are facing many similar challenges – higher quality for less cost. Although healthcare is primarily organized within national geographies, the market trends are truly global. Changing demographic profiles, an aging population, new technologies, pharmaceutical developments and rising consumer demands all create unprecedented fiscal pressures. The good news is that there are many more similarities than differences between national healthcare systems. The globalized nature of healthcare in developed countries offers the opportunity to share knowledge about what works like never before. To share some practical insights from healthcare organizations around the world that have successfully tackled productivity and efficiency challenges, KPMG worked with the Manchester Business School in the UK to select ten industry best practice examples that could be underpinned with a solid research and evidence base. We draw on in-depth interviews with healthcare leaders in Australia, Canada, Germany, Spain, New Zealand, the UK and the US, all of whom are passionate about their programs and interventions.

  • NO CHOICE, NO EXIT the Left’S Plans for Your Health Care
    NO CHOICE, NO EXIT The Left’s Plans for Your Health Care edited by MARIE FISHPAW and ROBERT E. MOFFIT, PHD More praise for NO CHOICE, NO EXIT The Left’s Plans for Your Health Care Big government is especially pernicious when asserting control over an individual‘s health care. A bill which received an all-day hearing in a House of Representatives committee would do just that, resulting in a complete government takeover of health care. This book provides a go-to source as we continue the difficult debates about the federal presence in health care. —REP. MICHAEL C. BURGESS (R-TX-26), MD No Choice, No Exit: The Left’s Plans for Your Health Care cuts through the rhetoric to explain the consequences of proposals purporting to save a family money by raising their taxes and limiting their health care choices. The publication is timely as health care will be part of the debate for the presidential campaign and into the next Congress. Americans who wish to understand this debate should read this book. —SEN. BILL CASSIDY (R-LA), MD Health reform remains a top priority for Americans. They’re concerned about high costs, access, and choice. This book explicitly shows how the Left’s plan for your health care fails to address those concerns. —JOHN GOODMAN, PHD, FATHER OF HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNTS AND CO-AUTHOR OF BEST-SELLING BOOK PATIENT POWER This important collection cuts through the Left’s rhetoric on health care to highlight the danger of over-centralization and government control. American health care faces real problems, but the Left would only double down on them.
