The roads to managed competition for mixed public-private health systems: a conceptual framework

Some countries have adopted systems with a mixture of public-private involvement (e.g. Australia, Chile, Ireland, South Africa, New Zealand) which creates two-tier health systems, allowing consumers (groups) to have preferential access to the basic standard of care (e.g. skipping waiting times). The degree to which efficiency and equity are achieved in these types of systems is questioned. In this paper, we consider integration of the two tiers by means o...

Twinning International Pediatric Cardiology Fellowship Programs: A Transformative Educational Experience for Trainees with Potential for Global Adoption
AbstractOver the last decade, having endured the COVID-19 pandemic, education and training in pediatric cardiology have undergone a profound disruptive transformation. Trainees experience considerable stress achieving all the competencies required to become a competent pediatric cardiologist. Often the quality of the training experienced by trainees, the approach to patients, and potential institutional preference in management strategy is heavily influenced by the center in which they train. We developed an online live twin program of education between Texas Children ’s Hospital, Houston, Texas and Children’s Health a...

A prospective review of Cauda Equina Syndrome referrals received by an on-call orthopaedic department at a major trauma unit
ConclusionThere is a lack of understanding as to what exactly is being referred —resulting in a referral volume which is over ten times the expected number of CES cases being made to our unit. The lack of out-of-hours MRI access poses a significant concern for patient outcomes. (Source: Irish Journal of Medical Science)
