compliance

 to certify training capability for post-graduation (PGY) and

specialty trainings

 Ministry of Education:

 to certify teaching facilities and capabilities for internship

and pre-graduation trainings

The Main Criteria of Hospital Classification

 Hospital Structure  Professional discipline  Manpower  Clinical teaching facilities and capability  Clinical and basic research capacity  Care process, results and continuous improvement  Patient safety and risk management  Effective administration  Emergency/Critical/Cancer care  Effective medical policy

9 李偉強博士

  • Dr. Wui-Chiang Lee

Linked to NHI Contract and Reimbursement

 Fundamental requirement to NHI contract  Medical center is reimbursed higher than regional

and district hospitals

 A certain high-risk procedures and high-tech

facilities are only allowed at medical centers

 Good reputation attracts more patients  Large-scale hospitals attract and retain medical

staffs and specialists

Hospitals Care!

 The #1 exam of hospital managers!

 “Oscar award” for competing medical centers  “Entrance exam” for middle level hospitals  “Survival test” for poorly-managed hospitals

 The performance in accreditation is linked to

reputation, payment, service volume and profit

Better Structure and Process of Care

Accumulating evidences demonstrate that accreditation improves:

 Infrastructure, workforce, equipment  Patient-centered and safe environment  Informed consent and patient right protection  Core measures of quality in process of care  SOPs in medication safety, infection control  Safety report and risk management system

Instrument and Measures

 Ten hospitals participated (2007~2011)  SAQ (Chinese version) with 30 items  5 point Likert scales:

 Strongly agree (5), Slightly Agree (4), Neutral (3),

Slightly disagree (2), Strongly disagree (1)

 Positive response rate (%)

 Percentage of caregivers strongly and slightly agree (mean

score 4, or higher) to a given safety culture dimension of a hospital

Impacts on Healthcare Authorities

 Accreditation turns to be the most efficient tool

and a “double-blade knife” in:

 Regulation compliance (or failed)  Quality improvement (at very low cost)  Manpower and staffing ratio (regardless of cost)  Special missions (public health, disease screening,

hospice care, organ donation, outreach programs to rural areas, offshore islands, and to the other countries)

 Many interest groups urge government to adopt

their requirements into accreditation elements.

Disease-specific Certification

 AMI, ACS, CAD  High-profile physical check-up  Aesthetic medicine

 Others

47

李偉強博士

  • Dr. Wui-Chiang Lee

Impacts on Hospital and Health Workers

 Over-competition: emphasis on ranking and grading,

competitiveness replaced cooperation

 Reimbursement linked to accreditation, resources

allocate to urban and large-scale hospitals

 Parts of the requirements are too difficult to achieve  Overloading by paperwork and extra workload  Shortage of nurses and critical care doctors before

accreditation

Conclusions

 Taiwan’s hospital accreditation has played important

roles in each stage of hospital development for the past 37 years in a row.

 Although some negative influence exist, accreditation

indeed improves the quality of care in infrastructure and processes of medical services

 The Taiwan model can share with Asian countries

who wish to have its own accreditation system at affordable cost
