    Since the epochal crisis of neoliberalism in 2008 the global political landscape has become increasingly tumultuous and unpredictable (Destradi and Plagemann, Review of International Studies 45:711–730, 2019). Environmental catastrophe closes in on the horizon, and the Covid-19 pandemic has revealed dire inadequacies in healthcare systems (Lal et al., Lancet 397:61–67, 2021)

The variation in the prevalence of chronic pain was assessed and categorized according to the pain scale. Pain score was determined using a scale ranging from 0 to 10 as reported by patients using the following categories: 1 to 4: mild, 5 to 6: moderate and ?7: severe pain.

    Understanding the relationship between effectiveness and outcome indicators to improve quality in healthcare

    Onur Başer (MEF Author)Healthcare institutions face significant challenges in implementing quality initiatives such as performance measurement. In the wake of multiple studies emphasising deficiencies in performance measurement in healthcare, measuring the performance of healthcare services to improve quality takes a great attention in the literature. Understanding the relationships between performance indicators is a first step for this. Effectiveness, which is one of the performance indicators in healthcare, reflects the effect of health interventions on health outcomes. Accessibility of services and utilisation are the two main dimensions of this concept. These indicators have the potential for improving outcomes, performance, and quality in health. This study explores the relationship between effectiveness and health outcome indicators as they relate to the development level and geographic region of 81 provinces in Turkey using a path analytic model. The numbers of hospitals and physicians are used as indicators of accessibility of healthcare services, while the average length of stay and number of surgical operations are used as indicators of utilisation. Life expectancy and general satisfaction from healthcare services are determined as outcome measures. According to the final path model, a strong relationship exists between accessibility indicators and health outcomes. A strong relationship was also found between life expectancy and general satisfaction with healthcare services, which are the objective and subjective outcome measures in healthcare, respectively. These results help our understanding of the relationship among key performance measures to improve health systems performance and quality.WOS:0004416751000032-s2.0-85007291911Social Sciences Citation IndexArticleUluslararası işbirliği ile yapılmayan - HAYIREylülYÖK - 2018-1
