The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the need for remote health service provision. This research aims to explore the usage, perceptions, and knowledge of eHealth interventions during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in 2021 (during the pandemic) and 2023 (post-pandemic) using a structured questionnaire based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and the eHealth Literacy Scale (eHEALS). The survey, conducted in Greece, included 638 participants in total (277 in 2021 and 361 in 2023). Structural equation modeling was employed to assess the factors influencing eHealth adoption.Results: The findings indicate a slight increase in positive perceptions of eHealth usefulness, intention to use, and actual usage over the 2 years. However, concerns remain regarding the ease of use and eHealth literacy. eHealth literacy significantly predicts the perceived usefulness and ease of use of eHealth services, both of which predict the intention to use them. Additionally, higher education levels are positively associated with eHealth literacy, while older age is negatively associated with ease of use. Gender did not significantly impact these factors. These findings were consistent across both surveys.Conclusions: Policy-makers should focus on simplifying eHealth services, removing technical barriers, and enhancing the population's eHealth literacy to promote wider adoption of eHealth services.","PeriodicalId":45801,"journal":{"name":"Health Services Management Research","volume":" ","pages":"9514848241275777"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142037333","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While numerous studies have delved into the effects of specific technologies on the performance of different organizational units and medical specialties, the findings have often been divergent. Unlike the established literature, our approach focuses on the organization's perspective to analyze how technology impacts process performance in hospital settings. More precisely, we compiled a tailored dataset from 56 healthcare organizations in Italy and conducted a comprehensive analysis of panel data from 2016 to 2019, utilizing Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression as our main analytical tool. The data shows a clear relationship between an organization's use of medical devices and its overall process performance. Our research highlights the importance of achieving substantial improvements in process performance by strategically integrating new technologies and devices. Policymakers are encouraged to consider introducing incentives to drive hospitals to invest in innovative technologies. Furthermore, monitoring expenditures on new devices could serve as a valuable metric for assessing the extent of technology adoption within clinical practices.","PeriodicalId":45801,"journal":{"name":"Health Services Management Research","volume":" ","pages":"9514848241270874"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141890434","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Both \"hard\" dimensions (ownership) and organizational/managerial traits under the span of control of management are investigated. The objective is to raise awareness on how to mitigate unpopular features of primary healthcare organizations so to effectively compete in the war for talent.Methods: This study has been carried out based on data extrapolated from a broader study conducted by the Italian National Agency for Regional Health Services and commissioned by the Italian Ministry of Health. Data deriving from Italian nursing homes was extrapolated from the broader public dataset and multiple regressions were carried out to detect associations between managerial variables and staff seniority.Findings: Several significant associations were detected, suggesting that both physicians and nurses are affected by some investigated variables when deciding where to work and for how long. While some of these are common to the two categories of professionals (e.g., the presence of a nursing director), others are not (e.g., the presence of internal training programs).Original value: The implications of this study are related to the need of increasing awareness of managers of nursing homes on those features that are likely to increase their attractiveness and long-lasting appeal to professionals. This is a paramount topic in times in which the war for talent is strong. A lack of attention on this field may lead to the inability to attract and retain staff in primary care settings and, in turn, to implement strategic trends of change healthcare systems are facing in Italy and worldwide.","PeriodicalId":45801,"journal":{"name":"Health Services Management Research","volume":" ","pages":"9514848241270767"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141894578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Besides limiting equal access to care, long waiting times can have a negative impact on health outcomes. Long waiting times can create obstacles in a patient's care pathway. Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries have implemented various strategies to tackle this issue, but there is little evidence for which approach is the most effective. This literature review examined waiting times for ambulatory care. Objective: The aim was to identify the main policies or combinations of policies universal, tax-funded, and single-payer healthcare systems have implemented to improve the governance of outpatient waiting times. Methods: Starting from 1040 potentially eligible articles, a total of 41 studies were identified via a 2-step selection process. Findings: Despite the relevance of the issue, the literature is limited. A set of 15 policies for the governance of ambulatory waiting time was identified and categorized by the type of intervention: generation of supply capacity, control of demand, and mixed interventions. Even if a primary intervention was always identifiable, rarely a policy was implemented solo. The most frequent primary strategies were: guidelines implementation and/or clinical pathways, including triage, guidelines for referral and maxim waiting times (14 studies), task shifting (9 studies), and telemedicine (6 studies). Most studies were observational, with no data on costs of intervention and impact on clinical outcomes.","PeriodicalId":45801,"journal":{"name":"Health Services Management Research","volume":" ","pages":"160-173"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9740002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, this study selects medical managers' sense of managerial self-efficacy as a potential mediational variable in the feedback-performance relationship. A mediational model examining how the effect of performance feedback on medical managers' budgetary performance is influenced by their sense of managerial self-efficacy was established based on survey data from 60 medical managers working in a hospital. Data analysis was conducted using the partial least squares technique, and the results confirmed the hypothesised relationships. Specifically, performance feedback was positively associated with managerial self-efficacy, and managerial self-efficacy exerted a positive influence on medical managers' budgetary performance. Further, performance feedback was determined not to be directly associated with budgetary performance; however, a full mediating effect of managerial self-efficacy was found. These findings make several contributions to the literature and can help healthcare managers have a better understanding of the consequences and importance of the technical features of performance feedback reports.","PeriodicalId":45801,"journal":{"name":"Health Services Management Research","volume":" ","pages":"135-142"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9541454","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although the issue of medical waste management planning has been addressed in developed nations, it still exists in several developing nations. This paper examines the effects of barriers under the Organization action, work handling, and Human Resource Practices section on the healthcare waste management (HCWM) sector in a developing country India. In this study, three hypotheses were constructed and tested using Structural equation modeling. The questionnaire was distributed among 200 health professionals to collect their responses. Ninety-seven responses were received, and 15 barriers were identified affecting the healthcare waste management sector. The results show that all three barriers (i.e., Organizational, Waste handling, and Human resources) hinder the Healthcare waste management sector. Organizational Barriers are the most significant among other barriers. So, the hospitals have to take appropriate actions to overcome these barriers. This paper helps to complete the research gap by providing the different characteristics of barriers. The development of a model for the analysis of barriers influencing HCWM is the Author's original contribution.","PeriodicalId":45801,"journal":{"name":"Health Services Management Research","volume":" ","pages":"143-152"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9747547","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this paper is to present a novel self-care process model and place it in the broader context of professional care. The extended Event-driven Process Chain approach to process modelling was used, focusing on a detailed overview of sequences of events, connections and activities and other elements/building blocks. A self-care process model was designed. The model is divided into two parts. The first part represents the self-care process when patients are able to manage their symptoms and be independent. The second part includes the process when patients are unable to perform self-care and/or need professional support. By identifying the essential elements of this process and incorporating them into the patients' care process, we can ensure that professional support for self-care creates a dynamic balance in the patients' ecosystems. Patients with chronic noncommunicable diseases need to make timely decisions about individual aspects of their health and seek professional help. In this way, an optimal level of health and well-being of patients can be achieved. Focusing on the patients' self-care process could also reduce treatment costs and improve the quality of life of patients. The novel designed model of the process of self-care, with all its essential elements, can be supported by digital technology, especially in the decision-making process and needs to become an important part of healthcare and long-term care systems.","PeriodicalId":45801,"journal":{"name":"Health Services Management Research","volume":" ","pages":"189-197"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10224119","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, comprehensive studies are scarce. This study systematically reviews the literature on SD initiatives towards healthcare system transformation. The research questions are: How has the SD approach been applied to the healthcare sector? To what extent are the SD initiatives contributing to transform the health systems? What are the main challenges faced by SD initiatives to transform the health system? Which are the main stakeholders involved in the process, and how could they change according to the type of initiative? The search was conducted in March 2021 in eight databases and returned 990 articles evaluated through a research protocol, resulting in 47 studies included in this review. These studies were explored through thematic analysis and considering two conceptual models: the SD approach (Patrício et al., 2020) and the ecosystem perspective (Beirão et al., 2017). The findings show that SD initiatives have been implemented at all levels of the ecosystem, but only 49% (47/23 studies) present a transformative character. The SD initiatives challenges were organized into four themes: (1) Planning SD initiatives as a lever in transforming health systems; (2) Using SD tools creatively; (3) Considering the use of new technologies to transform health systems positively, and (4) Facing the challenges of applying the Experience-Based Design and Experience Based in Co-Design approaches in project development.
