摘要:

Sophisticated health care consumers are beginning to use the Internet to educate themselves about their own health and manage their own care. As health care stakeholders (providers, payers, employers) feel pressure from consumers to implement Internet-related strategies, stakeholders must realize that obtaining Internet access is a challenge for many consumers. Stakeholders who expand consumer Internet access will, however, have a competitive advantage. This article outlines how stakeholders can expand consumer Internet access.

摘要:

This article focuses on strategic management of rural hospitals from an evolutionary perspective, using logistic regression models to examine the environmental/organizational pressures that induced rural hospitals to be more active in strategic changes (high changers versus low changers) in two 5-year consecutive intervals between 1983 and 1993. Findings suggest that these pressures had inconsistent effects and high changers were more sensitive to organizational pressures than environmental pressures.

摘要:

A model of medical technology is proposed, containing six different perspectives of its definition: physical, information, knowledge, process, change, and as an enabling and strategic resource. These perspectives are integrated to form an organizational dimension. The contributions of this model to better management of medical technology are described and its relation to other models in the literature is discussed.

摘要:

Comprehensive case management has become an industry standard and its pervasiveness raises questions about the ubiquitous need for this service. Analyzed from the perspective of transaction cost analysis and access, we argue that in some cases comprehensive case management is an avoidable cost incurred because of system problems that limit access to otherwise eligible clients. Implications are discussed.

摘要:

As medical care increasingly moves from inpatient to outpatient delivery settings, attention must be paid to patient assessments of the care received in these ambulatory medical centers. This study of patients in ambulatory surgery centers (N = 275) across the United States reports on the ratings given to the varied attributes of the ambulatory surgery experience. The respondents (N = 36,078) gave highest ratings to those items which evaluated the nurses and physicians and lower marks to items related to registration and access. The article concludes with an illustration of a quadrant analysis technique that managers can use to identify the specific care issues that should be addressed to increase positive word-of-mouth referrals.
