Compare and Contrast Healthcare delivery in France and the UKmeducationdotnet
This document compares the healthcare systems of France and the UK. It finds that in France, healthcare is funded through both public and private sources. Healthcare expenditures per capita are higher in France than the UK. The French system provides better access to doctors and specialists with virtually no waiting lists compared to the UK. Cancer survival rates and heart disease outcomes are also better in France. However, the French system lacks coordination of care. While hand washing and infection control practices are concerning, France has lower MRSA rates than the UK. Overall, the document concludes the French healthcare system is very good, though both countries' systems could still improve.
The French healthcare system is ranked number one by the WHO and provides universal healthcare coverage to all residents. It is funded through a dual system of compulsory health insurance and voluntary private insurance. The public system covers over three-quarters of total healthcare spending through non-profit health insurance funds that cover around 85% of the population. The system is known for its high quality of care, choice of providers, and health outcomes, though it is costly at 11.6% of GDP and taxes are high.
Attended a meeting of the Los Angeles Healthcare Coalition in March 2014. Presented by Ibrahim Sankara, a French healthcare economist currently working with the UCLA School of Medicine. He presented a myriad of facts, and had a wealth of information beyond this document that facilitated a dynamic discussion of how the single-payor healthcare system in France was designed to truly serve all health needs of both citizens and non-citizens alike.

Overview of the French public hospital sector by Pascal Garel, International Affairs, Federation of French Hospitals (Federation Hospitaliere de France), for mHealth Israel, April 2, 2020.
The document summarizes key facts about the connected health market in Europe. It notes that the EU population is over 500 million people served by national public health systems with universal coverage. While systems differ by country, expenditures average around 9% of GDP. Chronic diseases represent 80% of health costs and the population is aging. The document then highlights details on Germany, France, UK and EU-wide characteristics, noting fragmentation across countries and a transition toward preventative and personalized health.
France aims to improve its healthcare system through increased use of information and communication technologies (ICT). Key goals include rationalizing costs while improving care quality and access. France developed a national eHealth strategy in 1996 focusing on electronic health records (EHRs), telemedicine, and other initiatives. Major projects include the SESAM-Vitale system for electronic medical billing and the electronic patient record (ePMR), with a national rollout planned for 2007. Lessons indicate such projects require more time and money than expected, strong coordination, and involvement of all stakeholders to drive adoption and changes needed for success. International collaboration is also important to support goals like interoperability.
The document summarizes a presentation on comparing the US healthcare system to other countries. It begins with defining terms like OECD, healthcare systems, and analytic methods. It then discusses the evolution of healthcare systems in OECD countries after World War II, with European nations adopting universal coverage through national systems while the US relied on employer subsidies. The presentation outlines different healthcare models - National Health Service, National Health Insurance, and mixed private/public systems - and provides examples from countries like the UK, which has a National Health Service funded mainly through taxes.

The presentation outlines different healthcare models - National Health Service, National Health Insurance, and mixed private/public systems - and provides examples from countries like the UK, which has a National Health Service funded mainly through taxes.
The UK has a publicly funded healthcare system called the National Health Service (NHS). The NHS provides universal coverage to all UK residents and is funded through general taxation. There are four separate NHS systems, one each for England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Healthcare is delivered through primary care providers like GPs, and secondary/tertiary hospitals. The NHS is overseen by the Department of Health and administered through local organizations like clinical commissioning groups that purchase services and strategic health authorities that plan services. Around 10% of people also purchase private health insurance for faster access or additional services.
Spain has a universal healthcare system that ensures all citizens have coverage, unlike the United States where many lack insurance. Spain developed its national healthcare system after Franco's death in 1975, which guarantees equal access to services. While Spain spends less on healthcare as a percentage of GDP compared to the US, it provides universal coverage through regional public insurance programs and optional private insurance. Citizens show their European Health Insurance Card for covered care at public facilities, while private insurance provides additional benefits like choice of doctors and shorter wait times.
This EIU report has been commissioned by Gilead Sciences. It looks at health outcomes of treatment relative to cost and at the structure of Spanish healthcare delivery, the process of making healthcare more accountable in Spain, and the growth and adoption of value-based measures.

Conflict of interest in health technology assessment decisions : case law in ...Market iT
The document discusses conflicts of interest in health technology assessment decisions in France. It describes how a drug withdrawal scandal led France to pass the Bertrand Law in 2013 to increase transparency around conflicts. The law requires disclosure of agreements between healthcare professionals and companies. The document analyzes six cases reviewed by the French Council of State related to conflicts at the national health agency. Four cases led to decisions being suspended or invalidated due to conflicts, while two others found conflicts irrelevant after interests were disclosed. The Council of State based decisions on acknowledging negative conflicts and absence of required interest disclosures. However, few cases have been decided against the agency given the volume of assessments. Increased regulation may lead to more transparency but also more cases being decided by the

Peter Crampton on public health in New Zealandmhjbnz
Prof Peter Crampton (Dean and Head of Campus, University of Otago Wellington)
specialist in public health medicine, argues that public health is a social, political, economic and justice issue, not a medical one. After charting the course of change to our health system since the 30’s, he urges every citizen to articulate in all their relationships (personal, professional, civil), their commitment to public health as a right of citizenship. He also agues that the goal of the public health system is to reduce inequalities and produce just outcomes for all New Zealanders.

This document summarizes the work of the Formula Consultative Task Team in South Africa to determine an appropriate formula for the country's Risk Equalisation Fund (REF). The REF aims to promote equity and solidarity in South Africa's transition to a social health insurance system with mandatory membership. The Task Team considered evidence and principles for choosing risk factors to include in the REF formula. Key risk factors identified were age, gender, births/first year of life, chronic diseases, and last year of life. The document also discusses defining the scope of benefits to be equalized and guidelines for REF operations and inclusion of different medical scheme types. The goal was to establish a formula that fairly allocates risk across schemes based on member characteristics.
The swiss healthcare system without the health care financesRafael Rodriguez
The document summarizes key aspects of Switzerland's healthcare system. It outlines that the system is governed by the 1996 Health Insurance Law (LAMal) which mandates universal basic health insurance coverage. It describes the basic insurance package that covers hospital stays, outpatient care, nursing care, and other services. Supplementary private insurance can provide additional benefits. Healthcare is provided through independent general practitioners, specialists, and public or private hospitals. Insurers must provide basic policies and premiums are regulated, though deductibles and premium costs still vary between plans and regions.
Towards Universal Comprehensive and Equitable National Health Systems: essadmin
This document discusses Brazil's 22-year experience developing its national health system, known as SUS, towards the goals of universality, comprehensiveness, and equity. Key aspects include establishing health as a right in the 1988 constitution, decentralizing the system to municipalities, expanding primary care through family health teams, and ongoing challenges around sufficient and stable financing. The SUS now provides universal coverage through tax-funded public services and regulated private partnerships, showing progress on health access, outcomes, and inclusion over decades of implementation.

Australia has an annual healthcare spend of $140 billion. This webinar will explain the processes that companies need to go through to sell their products into the Australian hospital system.
The Australian health system is run through a combination of Commonwealth (or Federal) and State government management. Whilst the Commonwealth government sets the regulatory and policy agenda, each state and territory is responsible for the delivery and management of public health services.
In order to sell products into the Australian public hospital system, companies need to understand the different routes to market and processes involved in each state.
This webinar focused on providing UK healthcare & medical companies with an understanding of the different processes involved to sell into each state within the Australian public hospital system. It touched on regulation, reimbursement, procurement processes and advice on developing the market.
Indra Linina: Joint External Evaluations (JEE) – Country experiences: LatviaTHL
Latvia has a population of around 2 million people and has focused on improving its capacity to respond to public health threats since its Joint External Evaluation in 2017. The evaluation assessed 19 core capacities across 48 indicators and found that Latvia had limited capacity in several key areas like antimicrobial resistance, risk communication, and emergency operations center functionality. In response, Latvia developed a National Action Plan for Health Security in 2017 to address the recommendations and prioritize areas for improvement. It also established a Cross-Sectoral Commission to improve collaboration across sectors and readiness. Since then, Latvia has achieved developments like creating an antimicrobial resistance plan, strengthening institutional emergency plans, and increasing civil-military cooperation to work towards sustaining its preparedness capabilities.

This document presents the European Commission's eHealth Action Plan for 2012-2020. It aims to address barriers that have prevented wider adoption of eHealth across Europe. The plan has four main objectives: 1) Achieving wider interoperability of eHealth services through standards and guidelines. 2) Supporting eHealth research, development and innovation. 3) Facilitating broader eHealth deployment. 4) Promoting international eHealth cooperation. The vision is for eHealth to help manage chronic diseases, increase health system efficiency through citizen-centric care, and foster cross-border healthcare in Europe.
- ICT solutions have great potential to help the growing elderly population in Europe age actively and independently as demographic aging increases costs on pensions, healthcare and long-term care.
- The EU is supporting ICT research and large-scale pilots through programs like FP7, AAL JP and ICT PSP to accelerate deployment of proven ICT solutions for ageing well and create a competitive market for these technologies.
- Initial pilots have shown promising results, such as cost savings from remote monitoring that allows earlier hospital discharges, but wider adoption requires addressing barriers like older adults' limited digital skills and fragmentation in markets and business models.

This document summarizes a study on the assistive technology (AT) industry in Europe, specifically for information and communication technology (ICT) products and services. The study found that the AT ICT industry is fragmented across Europe due to different national systems and policies. This makes the market smaller for companies. It recommends establishing a new industry organization to represent AT ICT interests at the European level and help network stakeholders. The organization would focus on networking, knowledge exchange, and policy lobbying to help strengthen the European AT ICT industry.
The document discusses the potential benefits of eHealth (ICT for health) in Europe. It notes that while the health sector employs over 9% of the EU workforce, ICT penetration in health is relatively low compared to other sectors. eHealth can improve efficiency and productivity, support chronic disease management and preventive care, and empower patients. The EU is a world leader in deploying ICT in primary care settings. Further development of eHealth requires addressing issues like interoperability, business models, and research into areas like personalized medicine.

NVEH is the main association for e-Health and telemedicine in the Netherlands. Its vision is for eHealth to empower both patients and caregivers by supporting health through innovative use of ICT. While initiatives and awareness of telehealth's needs have grown in the Netherlands, traditional healthcare systems remain supply-oriented and divided between prevention, cure, care and wellness. For optimal results, eHealth must seamlessly connect the worlds of healthcare providers and health consumers.
