Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instructor Resources: Instructor's Manual Today's healthcare managers face increasingly complex challenges and often must make decisions quickly. When a difficult situation arises, managers can no longer simply "look it up" online or in the management literature. Properly "looking it up" involves knowing where and how to look, appropriately framing a research question, weighing valid evidence, and understanding what is required to make proposed solutions work. Health Services Management: A Case Study Approach offers a diverse collection of case studies to help readers learn and apply key concepts of management, with an emphasis on the use of evidence in management practice. The case study authors, many of whom are practitioners or academics who work closely with practitioners, present realistic management challenges across a variety of settings. They examine potential responses to those challenges by health services managers and other stakeholders, and they provide a platform for meaningful discussion of opportunities and constraints for management decision makers attempting to implement change. This edition includes 60 case studies--32 of which are brand new--arranged thematically into six sections: The Role of the Manager, Control, Organizational Design, Professional Integration, Adaptation, and Accountability. The new cases include the following: - Better Metrics for Financial Management - What Makes a Patient-Centered Medical Home? - Doing the Right Thing When the Financials Do Not Support Palliative Care - Hearing the Patient Voice: Working with Patient and Family Advisers to Improve the Patient Experience - Managed Care Cautionary Tale: A Case Study in Risk Adjustment and Patient Dumping Learning by example is one of the oldest forms of learning, and the case study approach offers a time-tested way for students and healthcare professionals to develop practical skills that are not easily acquired through lectures. Health Services Management has been used in classrooms since 1978, and this eleventh edition offers a fresh take on a classic text.

Book excerpt: Evidence-Based Health Care Management introduces the principles and methods for drawing sound causal inferences in research on health services management. The emphasis is on the application of structural equation modeling techniques and other analytical methods to develop causal models in health care management. Topics include causality, theoretical model building, and model verification. Multivariate modeling approaches and their applications in health care management are illustrated. The primary goals of the book are to present advanced principles of health services management research and to familiarize students with the multivariate analytic methods and procedures now in use in scientific research on health care management. The hope is to help health care managers become better equipped to use causal modeling techniques for problem solving and decision making. Evidence-based knowledge is derived from scientific replication and verification of facts. Used consistently and appropriately, it enables a health care manager to improve organizational performance. Causal inference in health care management is a highly feasible approach to establishing evidence-based knowledge that can help navigate an organization to high performance. This book introduces the principles and methods for drawing causal inferences in research on health services management.

Download or read book Health Care Comes Home written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2011-06-22 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States, health care devices, technologies, and practices are rapidly moving into the home. The factors driving this migration include the costs of health care, the growing numbers of older adults, the increasing prevalence of chronic conditions and diseases and improved survival rates for people with those conditions and diseases, and a wide range of technological innovations. The health care that results varies considerably in its safety, effectiveness, and efficiency, as well as in its quality and cost. Health Care Comes Home reviews the state of current knowledge and practice about many aspects of health care in residential settings and explores the short- and long-term effects of emerging trends and technologies. By evaluating existing systems, the book identifies design problems and imbalances between technological system demands and the capabilities of users. Health Care Comes Home recommends critical steps to improve health care in the home. The book's recommendations cover the regulation of health care technologies, proper training and preparation for people who provide in-home care, and how existing housing can be modified and new accessible housing can be better designed for residential health care. The book also identifies knowledge gaps in the field and how these can be addressed through research and development initiatives. Health Care Comes Home lays the foundation for the integration of human health factors with the design and implementation of home health care devices, technologies, and practices. The book describes ways in which the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and federal housing agencies can collaborate to improve the quality of health care at home. It is also a valuable resource for residential health care providers and caregivers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International health and aid policies of the past two decades have had a major impact on the delivery of care in low and middle-income countries. This book argues that these policies have often failed to achieve their main aims, and have in fact contributed to restricted access to family medicine and hospital care. Presenting detailed evidence, and illustrated by case studies, this book describes how international health policies to date have largely resulted in expensive health care for the rich, and disjointed and ineffective services for the poor. As a result, large segments of the population world-wide continue to suffer from unnecessary casualties, pain and impoverishment. International Health and Aid Policies arms health professionals, researchers and policy makers with strategies that will enable them to bridge the gaps between public health, medicine and health policy in order to support robust, comprehensive and accessible health care systems in any political environment.

This book was released on 1996-10-16 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do I plan my research in a systematic way in order to maximize my chances of obtaining funding and successfully answering my research question? How do I manage the project so that the research question is answered and the study objectives met, on time and within budget? This book provides the answers to these queries and others that are frequently raised by first-time researchers. It offers a straightforward and practical description of a systematic and structured approach to research project management. Recent years have seen a tremendous increase in research activity concerned with health and health care, and employing methodologies derived from a wide range of disciplines including epidemiology, health economics and other social sciences. Many books have been published describing the methods of such research. However, research projects that run into difficulties rarely do so for methodological reasons but through poor project management. Typical problems include running over budget, differences of opinion with key stakeholders, and missed completion deadlines. The aim of this book is to offer practical advice on the application to research of a range of project management processes including those of: time and activity management budgetary control management of stakeholder relationships product marketing The book is aimed primarily at newcomers to health research and the intention is to describe a systematic and structured approach that will help to bring a research project to a successful conclusion.
