Healthcare systems with women

Women occupy wide part of any society and with different ages build astounding internal healthcare market segment inside the society. The fast impact of their healthcare demands make them strong big sales promoters in front of any medical values offered. It not surprise to know the real whirlpool of healthcare system depending mainly on women care demands and later following up. Good news we are not going to discuss psychological purchases pattern of women in this post but at least as a hint would like to refer that women in nature use medical care system three folds more than men. Because their demand to care about themselves and their children with high tendency to live beautiful healthy life. For those who do not believe me I advise to go for while to stand couple of minutes inside any near hospital then you will figure out how far healthcare systems funded by women than men. Women specialities of healthcare divided merely between Gynaecology, Obstetrics and paediatrics in addition to chronic cases of elderly patients. Inside these three main categories there are some branched specialities according medical specialist such as surgery and endocrinology and many others. Some countries plastic surgery occupy big segment of work and achieve unprecedented revenues as Brazil. Anyway; women is the master player of healthcare much more than men in any community aggregates.

Medical providers found the matter of leading women toward certain values offered is much easier than leading group of men. Because they care much regarding their health, they are looking for every opportunity to get better values. It means easier to persuade them about any new. The opposite for men; traditional pattern and hard to change and only go to healthcare system in acute and emergency situations. Even their chronic cases sometimes do not get the full care and enough interest.

Savvy medical providers know these facts about society demographical distributions and targeting each by suitable and enough number of services cover all their needs. Women by nature are sensitive to the quality of medical values that they used to get from the providers. With talkative good communicative medical staff they will like what providers offer and how to handle their demands. Some academic researchers measure the efficiency of medical services through the quality level of women offered values. The summary of this point if providers want to build strong high standards care system with enough quality to compete, preferable to be targeted and forced by women medical care. They will help to build the system by high demanding nature of their purchase ability plus lead the quality to reach optimum thresholds covering society care needs overall.

As everything owns positive and negative; minimize the values offered to men not the best solution if we ask them to increase their participation in healthcare arena. Instead exaggerate their awareness and let health promotional campaigns do their roles and work harder to get their perception in the spot of interest. Learing and awareness highlighting make a lot with men than showing quality and standards. From men psychology nature and as a man can tell that the best time for them when things are done and this is the key). When care providers take the men that simplicity of the system covering hidden burden convolution that will change the vague piles of complexity inside men head. Thus they will find joining healthcare is easier and more convenient than before so, this is their point for engagement. Full health J

Healthcare and chronic diseases

Healthcare system own different segments cause pouring of cash current into budget panel. Chronic diseases and their following up with patients is one of them and considered the consistent revenue for long time. Savvy pharmaceutical enterprises always build chronic portfolios matching different ages and numerous human disorders with chronic package always. The matter of chronicity is not new subject in healthcare but how to manage and handle patient needs according to modified lifestyle still from time to time come over table of discussion. In order to define the chronic disorder is metabolic setback in one or different groups of enzymatic reactions whether deficits or hyperactivity or sometime totally absent of the reactive necessary enzyme. The first wide fame disorder is Diabetes mellitus but here will not discuss the disease than putting it as a template of chronic management policy and effective model of patient administrative figures. Patients with chronic disorder or chronic disease in case of infection needs particular method of management and constant care policy give them evidence and subconscious confidence that everything under control and remove any physiological burden of being different or weird than others in their own lifestyle.

The beautiful about modern healthcare systems and chronic cases that every patient history already existed over his gate of electronic health record what actually makes the process of following chronic case enjoyable of both patient and medical practitioner. Chronic flow is look like reservoir to healthcare revenues in case of seasonal fluctuation of acute and out-visits. People also enjoying and wait the time of chronic follow up because they most in need to feel reassurance that everything going to be normal again soon. This feeling of hope exploded under the effect of good patient management and how convenient they become after clinic visit time.  

By modern innovative solutions and more patient participation and self empower to take care of yourself after getting full awareness toward chronic disease. That got help most of patients to overcome any negative feelings regarding the matter of normal life convenience. Thus build good strong market segment following the rules and tapping to reach the point of optimisation. My private viewpoint that the extension in the market horizontally is much better and carries many benefits than blowing it up by massive services and inflated cost expenses which exhaust the patient and his own insurance budget he would have been funding. It could be better for primary health providers to know that chronic cases management more profitable than acute and emergency cases. Most of them build tailed sales indirectly and all of us know when our relatives prefer certain hospital or clinic by name and ask their friends to go there just because they had a good experience before.

Chronic diseases and chronic management policy is essential backbone of every healthcare system. Moreover; without would be hard and almost impossible to build and perform efficiently in care field. There is a point here to those who want to increase any kind of sales. Many of inexperienced marketers and sales persons in different careers working hard to focus enough in the same deal neglecting that when you give the customer good and fit value. You are not only get good deal but also going to earn and build potential client loyalty and open subconscious opportunities to get the friends and relatives as well plus good reputation for enterprise itself.

Investment opportunities in healthcare

Wealth among people is the first concern and will always be, and with women wealth is representing some sort of security, confidence and steady lifestyle. In ancient time wealth was not only measured by money; was also by wives and servants and exceed that to be by number of animals sometimes.  Wealth among countries determined in near past according to natural resources stocks they owned while in most recent form of weather has become only in form of money which represented in financial term of multiple cash flows that pouring in that society. Levels of cash flows are seriously matter among countries starting from student rents and regular purchases of tourists for sure with VAT and end with big exportation deals to other countries. Whether small or big amount of money still the same concept of work and the same process procedures. In business fields cash flow tool called vehicle and there are many wealth and cash flow vehicles involved in order to create positive cash flow even on the level of personal incomes. Some tangible assets such as lands or rents while other intangible assets which some wide part among healthcare systems and intelligence communication process. Nowadays it is hard to identify and determine the whole picture which one can serve well the end yield and reach the aimed financial purposes. Along yield differs according to sort of market and nature of country business cycles.

Healthcare still without any similar competitors on the top of business vehicles for wealth and the prices of medical care and services in USA will fast going to tell you why. The best information of healthcare investment opportunities that not clear for public especially the patients, may they never even thought about it. The matter here directly related to people medical care, the point to do anything to be in good health and get proper care makes everyone neglects any big financial rewards the investors would get from investments. There are ten big categories of investment in healthcare and all of them highly liquid business, it means build and create consistent positive cash flow.

General hospital groups, Specialist hospitals, Polyclinics, Specialist clinics, Primary care clinics, Diagnostic facilities and laboratories, telemedicine, pharmaceutical distributors and retailers, medical schools and nursing schools.

In these ten categories; there are many sub-categories according to nature of society and demographic distribution of population mass. Whatever; you have a experience in working with some of them or not still most of them be able to create and build high liquid market full of variations and demands.

May some of you ask why the healthcare market owns this unique feature above other vehicles and how to build the same in any other investment wheel?!. Regarding the first part of question; healthcare works and deal with community health welfares whether chronic or acute market segments. Subsequently; when the human health would be threatened, it does not a matter of how much it cost to pay and be fit in life again. Undoubtedly; behind the real picture some unnecessary medicines and investigations and sometimes surgical operations but does not matter ever if I be myself again. In additional to lack of medical knowledge for most of ordinary people and regular citizen that will never think there was something in-between with private healthcare sector and providers. Picture is not that dark, good is good everywhere as long as there is a touch of humanity with providers and role of country to follow and check over their works. Full health J

Patient safety concerns_2

Among piles of patient regulations and standards I considered the ECRI institute safety concerns of the patient is the simple concise valuable ones. That discussed patient safety recommending with feasible exaggerate direct impact over them and also integrate the indirect related stakeholders to service and fall in the patient lap of service later. In other meaning uncover other setbacks in favourable of patient purpose. In order to turn the wheel forwardly a bit to explain how safety wraps many axises of work issues whether digitally, electronically and even in communication process. Traditional regulations formerly discussed the topic over the patient; it means researchers were working on safety process over the patient only while gave other supportive procedures less interest. The core thinking point engaged the concept to adapt and motivate any supportive task to be more innovative and much effective than regular and that what our reader going to find in the rest of patient safety concerns below:

6.  Failure to Conduct Independent Double Checks Independently; It means here double checking following the announced data and registered information of any patient without any personal or learned bias of work tasks. In my opinion is like double keeping accounting of business field as first medical staffs followed by second to check double and take the decisions independently.

7. Opioid-Related Events; the point here to be sure that physicians and prescribers aware with safety and medical legal regulations of opioid containing remedies. ‘’The use and the prescribing of opioids has significantly increased in recent years’’ says Stephanie Uses, PharmD, MJ, JD, patient safety analyst, ECRI Institute ‘’that’s one of the reasons opioid safety has become more of an issue.” According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ National Action Plan for Adverse Drug Event Prevention

8. Inadequate Reprocessing of Endoscopes and Surgical Instruments; instruments and devices in medical field are a big burden for good processing and appropriate preparation. Far from any details autoclaved instruments with antiseptic dressing over them during operations are the apex of hygienic safety and perfect methodology with medical tools especially reused category. While disposable ones would be away once their mission already over. Some instrument needs certain steps of cleaning and sterilization which takes may sometimes hours and overnight sometimes.

9. Inadequate Patient Handoffs Related to Patient Transport; “Transporting a patient within the hospital to another clinical setting or between units within the facility presents risk of harm to the patient and, depending on the needs of the patient, can be an unsettling experience for nurses charged with caring for the patient, and for the transporter,” says Kelly Graham, BS, RN, patient safety analyst at ECRI Institute. May be it sound subjective topic of discussion but seriously is crucial ligament of medical care and patient management. Handling inanimate objects can keep them safe and clean but with human-being carries additional sort of psychological impact particularly with diseased and senile community individuals. This psychological impact have many roles in acclimatization of medical care and moreover build intimacy and direct loyalty among society and their care systems.

10.  Medication Errors Related to Pounds and Kilograms; it seems weird title at beginning but when you know that many of surgical operations and anaesthesia doses depending mainly on patient weights and body durability to overcome and recovery fast from deep anaesthetic surge. Errors and defeated to register proper patients weight is unaccepted to happen under any condition because simply sometimes would be fatal when all surgical medicines and associated doses adjusted in compiled with it.

Patient safety concerns

The fact of being tracked by medical systems and other tools annoy some patients and others considered it as a matter of privacy invasion harassment. After all; it seems as though there is some of misunderstanding from patients about the ordinary regulations that should be applied. Matter of keeping full data history about patients in one panel of data (EHR) somehow builds worries and personal tension among society members. Such makes them doubtful and feel insecure regarding their data destiny and personal information processing of their medical history. The real mission here not only to protect their data but also to give them enough impression about the data safety and storage enable to build trustworthy threshold between them and medical systems in generals. Safety concern among medical organization is old new topic of reach and ongoing discussions. ECRI Institute is an independent non-profit organization that researches to get approaches to improving patient care, 2015 they released top ten list of patient safety among organization. We are going to discuss them briefly as follow:

1. Alarm Hazards: Inadequate Alarm Configuration Policies and Practices; alarm fatigue is the main core of discussion due to excessive alarms activations happened in the same time. What make patents subsequently miss a lot of alarms and personal medical notifications leading ultimately to loss the truthfulness about working system. “Our accident investigations have found that hospitals have either not had consistent or not had any practices to determine how alarms are set by care area or by patient type,” says James P. Keller, MS, vice president, health technology evaluation and safety, ECRI Institute.

2. Data Integrity: Incorrect or Missing Data in EHRs and Other Health IT Systems; Although medical staff got capable of being precisely work with numerous data but still there is no till now tool could and be able to insert data than humankind by themselves. Some trials have carried out to record voices and transform them later into written forms of data but all under research trials and need approval over large scale yet. The experience advice from many of data engineers that prefer to go slow when they start loading data inside systems, from their point of view the best way to avoid many mistakes!.

3. Managing Patient Violence; the violence manifestations regularly happen between patients in particular situations even if the medical staff meant well-being services. Poor patients demands management and inferior communication lead eventually to violence. For sure habits of society and culture play indirect role in somehow as in cold weather societies people prefer to be silence even for hours than to be pulled in violation action while in sunny hot societies the opposite.

4. Mix-Up of IV Lines Leading to Misadministration of Drugs and Solutions; it refers to medical administration to the patients such as, wrong dose, wrong medicines, unfavourable consequences…etc.

5. Care Coordination Events Related to Medication Reconciliation; “the patient’s medications should be reconciled to ensure the patient is on the correct medications for the next phase of care,” says Mary Beth Mitchell, patient safety analyst and consultant at ECRI Institute.

In order to avoid long post the rest of the patient safety concerns would be completed in the next one. Full health J
