Book excerpt: The collective monograph "Intelligent Systems for Sustainable Person-Centered Healthcare" establishes a dialog among the medical and intelligent system domains for igniting transition toward a sustainable and cost-effective health care, driven by advanced technologies. The Person-Centered Care (PCC) conceptual background of healthcare positions a person in the center of a healthcare system, instead of defining a patient as a set of diagnoses and treatment episodes. The PCC-based conceptual background triggers enhanced application of Artificial Intelligence (AI), as it dissolves the limits of processing traditional medical data records. The ambition of taking care of a person health by knowing life conditions, values, and expectations for nurturing own health adds new dimensions for making PCC operational. The book discusses ability of intelligent healthcare system to monitor person health and improve quality of life. The monograph consists of three parts. Part I discusses conceptual background of healthcare system, identifying major differences in required knowledge and linking to its sources while applying patient- or person- oriented frameworks of care. The extensive analysis and conceptualization of healthcare systems characterizes context for implementing AI approach for research and application of AI technologies. Chapter 1 analyzes theoretical backgrounds of health care, it positions the personcentered care among the theoretical concepts of health care, shaping lifetime relationships among people and the medical institutions. The PCC concept suggests technological innovations and changes in providing healthcare services due to new requirements for inter-professional collaboration, application of scenario-based simulations and gaming for training of professionals at the healthcare institutions and redesigning their processes. Chapter 2 defines the operational considerations of PCC and introduces the specific routines for its implementation based of the analysis of person narratives, negotiating and building healthcare plans, and linking to relevant documents influencing and characterizing person health. Chapter 3 provides design and evaluation considerations for Person-Centred Care Implementation. It covers organizational process design for its implementation, applying intelligent technologies for processing information emanating from the PCC operational routines. The measures, indicators, and methods for valuing health care and its effects are researched. Chapter 4 discusses the customization forPCCintervention in a healthcare domain of pharmacy. It introduces the concept of PCC within pharmaceutical care delivery, explores its role as a part of multidisciplinary health services delivery teams. The role of health literacy, e-pharmacy service, and tele-pharmacy for implementing PCC is explored. Part II provides research of efficiency evaluation, decision-making, and sustainability in person-centered health care. Chapter 5 researches concept and models of shared decision-making as a framework of PCC. It focuses on multi-criteria decision-making techniques in healthcare settings. The ethical and practical considerations of shared decision-making in PCC and sensitive data emanating from patient narratives creates specific conditions and barriers for its implementation technologies.

Download or read book Management Control in Hospitals written by Roman A. Lewandowski and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2023-08-24 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For years, problems related to health-care efficiency have been at the top of the priorities of many hospitals systems and governments. The growing cost of health care, and particularly hospitals, is a significant factor in the increasing pressure for improvement of hospitals’ efficiency while maintaining a high quality of services. Hospitals are recognized as organizations in which waste, unnecessary administrative burdens, failures of care coordination, failures in execution of care processes, and even fraud and abuse are frequently identified as causes. Adoption of management control as a response to hospital problems is consistent with the conviction that control is a critical management function that has the greatest impact on organizational performance. Research proves that the lack of adequate control, adapted to modern organizational solutions, causes many harmful consequences, such as faulty services, dissatisfied patients and employees, inability to effectively compete on market, low flexibility and innovativeness, and, consequently, poor performance of the organization. This book comprehensively presents issues related to management control and develops a breakthrough theory about management control in hospitals. It is the result of many years of research and outlines the concept of control and related theories, which are discussed in detail, taking into account the unique characteristics of medical services, the health-care market, and hospitals as public organizations. Research has shown that the main elements of management control in hospitals are information systems, diagnostic control, interactive control, innovativeness, manager’s trust in physicians, and perceived uncertainty. And that proper relationships between these elements positively influence the hospital’s performance. This book describes how the success of the entire control process is based on the hospital’s top management and its interaction with clinical managers, department heads, and directors of other medical departments as well as clinicians. After reading this book, the implementation of the solutions suggested will help hospitals improve their performance, including the quality and effectiveness of the provided medical services and patient care.
