The objective of the study was gain a better understanding of how hospitals implement TQM and quality improvement initiatives. Results show that some hospital staffs have not realized that they are implementing TQM, even though they report to be using the strategies for quality improvement. On the other hand, some hospitals said that they were involved in quality programs, though not practically implementing TQM strategies. These results suggest two major conclusions about the implementation of TQM programs. First, data indicate that TQM programs may not be as effective as promised, due to a lack of understanding about TQM by the people within the organization. Second, implementation strategies that are statistically correlated are identified. These conclusions may be helpful for successful TQM implementation in from healthcare organizations as well as other service industries.</p>","PeriodicalId":77231,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Society for Health Systems","volume":"5 4","pages":"50-62"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20697362","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 entire health care industry is under siege from boards of directors, management and others who encourage health care systems to take actions ranging from strategic acquisitions and mergers to simple \"downsizing\" or \"rightsizing,\" to improve their perceived competitive positions in terms of costs, revenues and market share. In some cases, management is poorly prepared to work within this new competitive paradigm and turns to consultants who promise that following their methodologies can result in competitive advantage. One favored methodology is reengineering. Frequently, cost cutting attention is focused on the materials management budget because it is relatively large and is viewed as being comprised mostly of controllable expenses. Also, materials management is seldom considered a core competency for the health care system and the organization performing these activities does not occupy a strongly defensible position. This paper focuses on the application of a reengineering methodology to healthcare materials management.</p>","PeriodicalId":77231,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Society for Health Systems","volume":"5 4","pages":"74-89"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20697365","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 model estimates direct medical costs resulting from different patterns of health states during the course of the disease. The model is user-friendly and allows for changes in the input variables to be specified, thereby providing a frame-work for sensitivity analysis. The Markov process moves a cohort of individuals through six different health states: Healthy, IDDM without chronic microvascular complications, IDDM with retinopathy alone, IDDM with neuropathy alone or with retinopathy, IDDM with nephropathy, and death. Epidemiologic data were obtained from governmental sources as well as the medical literature. Transition probabilities were estimated using data from the Wisconsin Epidemiologic Study of Diabetic Retinopathy (WESDR). Direct medical costs were estimated from actual charges from a local health maintenance organization in Wisconsin. The validity of the model was tested in several ways including a comparison with an independent cost estimate made by the Wisconsin Department of Health and Family Services. The model appears to be useful in estimating the progression and associated costs of IDDM for any large population over any period of time and in allowing changes in the inputs to evaluate their impact thus providing pertinent information to healthcare decision-makers and health planners.</p>","PeriodicalId":77231,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Society for Health Systems","volume":"5 4","pages":"24-37"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"20698036","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}

To overcome this communication problem, a number of authors have proposed conceptual frameworks for surgical process scheduling. These frameworks have unfortunately been either unsatisfactory or incomplete. In this paper, we describe a conceptual framework for surgical process scheduling and use it to classify the existing literature.
