Presentation on approaches to measure medicine prices and price components, by Marg Ewen, Health Action International, at the launch of the Medicines Transparency Alliance, London 15 May 2008
This presentation was given at the Future Health Systems conference in Abuja, Nigeria, by our Ugandan colleagues in January 2009. www.futurehealthsystems.org
In most hospitals, the perioperative department drives the lion’s share of revenues-typically around 50-60%-while contributing 30-40% of the costs.1 Those costs largely reflect supply consumption. According to one study, supply costs accounted for 56 % of the total expense budget for a perioperative department, exceeding salary costs by more than 20%. 2
Facing major capital and operational budget pressure, most healthcare organizations are seeking more effective ways to reduce OR supply costs while preserving or even improving patient safety, operational efficiency, and staff productivity.

Continuous Quality Improvement
This term started in 1990s and started to look at quality on a continuum
We would say “ this is the problem” then we would collect data to see where we were weak and then come up with a solution
Then we would measure it ( the outcome) to see if what I put in place actually helped.
If it worked we move onto a different problem. If not, we tried a new solution

3. ONE SUCH WAY IS TO UTILIZE
DIGITAL PATIENT EDUCATION
SYSTEMS LIKE HALO HEALTH’S
IN HEALTHCARE OFFICE
WAITING ROOMS. OUR TV
MONITOR BASED SYSTEMS
BROADCAST AD-FREE HEALTH
AND WELLNESS INFORMATION
TO HELP THE PATIENT LIVE
BETTER AND PREPARE FOR
THEIR APPOINTMENT.
4. THEY ARE CUSTOMIZED TO
THE OFFICE’S
DEMOGRAPHICS SO YOU CAN
SPEAK TO THE PATIENT AND
THE PRACTICE STAFF IN
LANGUAGE THEY ARE USED
TO HEARING.
5. The advantages of reaching potential
participants while they are in their physician’s
office are very intuitive:
Patients are more likely to pay attention to
and favorably receive your messaging while
they are preparing for their appointment.
Patients are captive in a waiting area so your
messages will rise above the usual media
clutter in their lives.
Patients can immediately ask their doctor if
they are candidates for the study- and the staff
can help the patient enroll for the screening.
6. THE COST OF THESE
SYSTEMS IS ALSO VERY
AFFORDABLE, USUALLY
COSTING LESS THAN $2000
PER YEAR. SINCE EVERY
SYSTEM IS UNIQUE IN OUR
NETWORK, YOU HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO RECRUIT
FOR MANY DIFFERENT
STUDIES IN THE SAME
OFFICE- SPREADING THE
COST OVER MANY
PROJECTS.
