Perm Anente in the Northw PermInNWCvrFinal.pdf 1 10/4/10 12:20 PM PERMANENTE IN THE NORTHWEST THE IN PERMANENTE “The history of this Northwest physician group parallels that of Garfield’s physicians in California; two groups with separate beginnings shared a template and later became affiliated as geographic Regions in a national Kaiser Permanente. The author of this account, Ian MacMillan, for many years confined his writing to notes in medical charts as an internist and rheumatologist with Kaiser Permanente. For 14 of those years he was the well-regarded Chief of the Department of Medicine at Kaiser Sunnyside Medical Center. … In his narrative covering six decades of Kaiser Permanente Northwest history, MacMillan exploits the opportunity to tell the stories of physicians and others in both major and minor roles. Testament to his broad curiosity, he enriches his archive with historical detail and context. Permanente in the Northwest relates through small stories how a change in financing medical care, implemented 60 years ago, created a rationale, and drove physicians to collaborate to deliver care to a population that included both the sick and the well. In telling this story, MacMillan has made the book relevant not only to past and present physicians who will find their names in the text, but also to the current national discussion of health care reform.” C — From the Foreword by Arthur D.

The early years through the turn of the 21st century demonstrate how Northwest Permanente has become the leader in the deployment of an electronic medical record, the application of evidenced-based principles, and in the delivery of integrated care in the Northwest market.

MacMillan, MD has never authored anything before. He was born and raised in Regina, Saskatchewan where he was influenced by his physician father to become a doctor. He received his MDCM from Queen’s University, Kingston, Ontario and interned at University of Alberta Hospital where he met his future wife Shirley on the pediatric ward. A Fellowship in Internal Medicine at the Mayo Clinic convinced him of the desirability of group practice and, after a pathology residency in Victoria B.C. where he was impressed with the beauty of the Pacific Northwest, he joined The Permanente Clinic in 1961. © 2010 by The Permanente Press Published 2010 by The Permanente Press Oakland, California • Portland, Oregon The Permanente Press is owned by The Permanente Federation, LLC Oakland, California PERMANENTE IN THE NORTHWEST 14 13 12 11 10 1 2 3 4 5 ISBN: 0-9770463-3-8 Library of Congress Control Number: 2009937531 All rights reserved.

  • Revisiting Accountability Concept and Practices in Makassar, Indonesia (A Study on 2 Private and Public Hospitals)
    Revisiting Accountability Concept and Practices in Makassar, Indonesia (A Study on 2 Private and Public Hospitals) Indrianty Sudirman1, Andi Indahwaty Sidin2, dan Nurdjanah Hamid3 {[email protected]} Universitas Hasanuddin, Indonesia1, 2, 3 Abstract. Public and private hospitals have their own characteristics and uniqueness in their management. This research aims to develop an accountability model of public and private hospitals that are able to meet the interests of multi-stakeholders, especially in the era of health service reform. The result shows that the management system in the Public Hospital tends to be systematic and measurable compared to the Private Hospital which tends to be more independent. Keywords: Accountability, Public and Private Hospitals, Health Care Reformation 1 Introduction Hospital accountability is important to accommodate changes and pressures in healthcare reform [1][2][3][4][5], especially with the existence of a national health financing institution whose role is to control accountable health management for multi stakeholders [3][6]. Accountability reporting policies of government agencies are still generic and vertical. Accountability literature is still traditional because it focuses more on vertical accountability and financial aspects, therefore it is less effective in assessing hospital accountability in accordance with the demands of the New Public Management [7][8]. In Indonesia, the adoption of Presidential Regulation No. 12 on National Health Insurance can have implications for hospital quality, ethics, and management. There is no specific and comprehensive mechanism and dimension of accountability assessment for hospitals even though an accountable hospital can provide effective, efficient and equitable health services. Government and private hospitals have their own characteristics and uniqueness in its management.

  • The Evolution of Hospitals from Antiquity to the Renaissance
    Acta Theologica Supplementum 7 2005 THE EVOLUTION OF HOSPITALS FROM ANTIQUITY TO THE RENAISSANCE ABSTRACT There is some evidence that a kind of hospital already existed towards the end of the 2nd millennium BC in ancient Mesopotamia. In India the monastic system created by the Buddhist religion led to institutionalised health care facilities as early as the 5th century BC, and with the spread of Buddhism to the east, nursing facilities, the nature and function of which are not known to us, also appeared in Sri Lanka, China and South East Asia. One would expect to find the origin of the hospital in the modern sense of the word in Greece, the birthplace of rational medicine in the 4th century BC, but the Hippocratic doctors paid house-calls, and the temples of Asclepius were vi- sited for incubation sleep and magico-religious treatment. In Roman times the military and slave hospitals were built for a specialised group and not for the public, and were therefore not precursors of the modern hospital. It is to the Christians that one must turn for the origin of the modern hospital. Hospices, originally called xenodochia, ini- tially built to shelter pilgrims and messengers between various bishops, were under Christian control developed into hospitals in the modern sense of the word. In Rome itself, the first hospital was built in the 4th century AD by a wealthy penitent widow, Fabiola. In the early Middle Ages (6th to 10th century), under the influence of the Be- nedictine Order, an infirmary became an established part of every monastery.

  • International Healthcare Accreditation: an Analysis of Clinical Quality and Patient Experience in the UAE
    International Healthcare Accreditation: an Analysis of Clinical Quality and Patient Experience in the UAE Subashnie Devkaran, FACHE, MScHCM, BSc (Physiotherapy), CPHQ, Edinburgh Business School, Heriot-Watt University Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy April 2014 The copyright in this thesis is owned by the author. Any quotation from the thesis or use of any of the information contained in it must acknowledge this thesis as the source of the quotation or information. I ABSTRACT A mixed method research design was used to answer the question; ‘does accreditation have an impact on hospital quality, clinical measures and patient experience?’ The thesis contains three study components: 1) A case study determining the predictors of patient experience; 2) a cross-sectional study examining the relationship of hospital accreditation and patient experience and 3) A four year time series analysis of the impact of accreditation on hospital quality using 27 quality measures. A case study analysis of patient experience, using a piloted, validated and reliable survey tool, was conducted in Al Noor Hospital. The survey was administered via face- to-face interviews to 391 patients. Patient demographic variables, stay characteristics and patient experience constructs were tested against five patient experience outcome measures using regression analysis. The predictors of positive patient experience were the patient demographics (age, nationality, and health status), hospital stay characteristics (length of stay and hospital treatment outcome) and patient experience constructs (care from nurses, care from doctors, cleanliness, pain management and quality of food). Recommendations were made on how hospital managers can improve patient experience using these modifiable factors.

It covers the period from shortly after the intro- duction of anesthesia until modern times. We have attempted to provide an exhaustive compilation of available data, so that a repos- itory of information will exist for future medical historians. We have also attempted to make the book an enjoyable reading experi- ence for the average individual interested in medical history, in part by telling anecdotes about many of the people who had a role in this history. The book is divided into two parts. The first chapters describe the development of anesthesia in Oregon from different perspec- tives. These include the early period, the advent of anesthesiologists and the Oregon Society of Anesthesiology (OSA), the complete development of anesthesia delivered by nurse anesthetists (CRNAs), dental anesthesia, examples of types of anesthesia practice, and a historical perspective of Oregon anesthesiology, including brief biographical sketches of some early pioneers and some of the more influential anesthesiologists in the state.
