Abstract

Alternatieve therapieën, dokter Google, ... hoe ga je ermee om als arts? De Wat met-reeks wil het maatschappelijke debat over belangrijke thema's die de mens raken op een kritische manier wetenschappelijk onderbouwen. De publicaties scheiden feiten van fictie, reiken de nodige voorgeschiedenis aan, wijzen ons op de dilemma's en bieden een duidelijk toekomstperspectief. Binnen de geneeskunde wordt steeds meer de nadruk gelegd op evidence-based medicine (EBM), het gebruik van wetenschappelijk onderbouwde behandelingsmethoden. Tegelijkertijd willen mensen meer en meer weten hoe ze gezond moeten blijven en zoeken ze zelf informatie in de pers of op het internet. Het is echter niet altijd gemakkelijk om in te schatten hoe betrouwbaar die informatie is. Bovendien spelen ook de unieke levensomstandigheden van patiënten een rol. Dit boek bekijkt welke gezondheidsinformatie er waar aanwezig is, hoe we weten welke informatie we kunnen vertrouwen, en hoe we de doorstroming van informatie kunnen verbeteren. Daarbij staan enkele vragen centraal: - Hoe maak je wetenschappelijke inzichten relevant voor een patiënt? - Hoe weten we welke gezondheidsinformatie correct is? - Welke expertise heeft de patiënt zelf? - Hoe stemmen we persoonlijke ervaring en wetenschap op elkaar af? Wat met de mondige patiënt? biedt een leidraad voor duidelijke communicatie, met aandacht voor de persoonlijke situatie en inbreng van de patiënt.

Abstract

Health care should be provided efficiently, given the potential gains for patients and the population and the high cost of some kinds of care. Emphasizing the most cost-effective services can in principle attain the greatest health gains. Policies are implemented through tools available to policy makers, particularly those in government who can influence not only public expenditure and service delivery but also how private insurers and providers allocate resources among diseases and individuals. Example's of tools that nudge a health system toward greater value for money, while respecting fairness and the wishes of taxpayers, patients and health workers, include specifying coverage by insurance or public provision, promoting or limiting medical procedures, and methods of contracting for service delivery and paying providers. Policy Tools reviews an enormous research literature for evidence that particular policies can improve how efficiently health services are delivered, aiming not only at what policies to recommend but at what it takes to make them effective.

Abstract

Health impact assessment (HIA) is a support tool for intersectoral decision- and policy-making. It is used to assess the potential health consequences of pending decisions and it feeds this information back into the decision-making process. This book provides a detailed map of the use of HIA in the WHO European Region across a large range of sectors, including transport, environment, urban planning and agriculture, and at national, regional and local levels. It also reviews the implementation and institutionalization of HIA with specific focus on governance, financing, resource generation and delivery. HIA's effectiveness is explored and analysed in 17 case studies using a common analytical approach. This research also identifies the factors that contribute to the effectiveness of HIA. Overall the book demonstrates that HIA can be effective, while also revealing the uneven development and incomplete institutionalization of HIA across Europe. The book is based on a European research project funded under the European Union Public Health Work Programme. The research was led by the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies and included research teams from 19 countries.
