A starting point: 2000 World Health Report First attemptto to rank performance of 191 national health systems Identifies and measures performance of member states on key health system objectives Examines whether each health system is performing as well as it can, given existing resources BasedonMurray & Frank framework (2000)
but not everyone agreed
Difficulties in deciding what to measure and how to operationalize e it The health of nations MODERN medicine may be good at gauging the health hof patients, but it has proved less successful at taking its own pulse. Assessing the performance of a country s health care system is no easy task, because deciding what to include from doctors to drugs to diet is difficult, and because some chosen criteria, from infant mortality to patient satisfaction, are themselves hard to define. Making comparisons between countries is even trickier, because health care systems differ radically in their financing i and organisation, i and in the social ilgoals they set out to achieve.

Terms like Efficiency and Responsiveness are particularly difficult Efficiency WHO: Actual goal attainment achieved related to what could be achieved given resources available OECD: Microeconomic efficiency (measured health system productivity as compared to its maximum attainable), & Macroeconomic efficiency (what effect a change in the level of resources would have on the desired level of health houtcomes and responsiveness compared to other goods and services) Commonwealth Fund: Efficient (not wasteful) care delivery and insurance administration, delivered at the right time and right setting and where new innovations can be evaluated for both effectiveness and value. Control Knobs: Producing society s goals at a minimum cost: Technical/Production efficiency (producing outputsin the right way ) & Allocative efficiency (producing the right outputs ). Aday: Production efficiency (combining inputs to produce services at the lowest cost) & Allocative efficiency (combining inputs to produce maximum health improvements given available resources.
Responsiveness WHO: Respect for persons (health system and health provider s respect for dignity, autonomy, confidentiality); and Client orientation (right to prompt attention to health needs, basic amenities of health services, access to patient social support networks, choice of institutions providing care) OECD: Not clearly defined, encompasses notions of patient satisfaction, patientacceptabilityandpatientexperienceincluding acceptability and experience including access Commonwealth Fund: Not explicitly defined but included in definitions of quality and access. Control Knobs: Uses the term citizen satisfaction to indicate the degree to which citizens are satisfied with the health services provided by the health sector.
making operationalization and comparison difficult (here: responsiveness/ patient experience domain)

Different definitions of boundaries... Health system boundary WHO: The resources, actors and institutions related to the financing, regulation and provision of health actions. Where health actions are any set of activities how primary intent is to improve or maintain health. OECD: The health care system, notincluding public health activities or other wider issues. Commonwealth Fund: The way in which health care services are financed organized and delivered dli dto meet societal goals for health. h It includes the people, institutions, and organizations that interact to meet the goals, as well as the processes and structures that guide these interactions. WHO Commonwealth Fund OECD
and conceptualizations of health outcomes Health WHO: Health of the population at different parts of the life cycle, including theeffects effects ofmorbidity andpremature mortality. OECD: Health outcomes are changes in health status brought about by health care, or health system, activities. Commonwealth Fund: Health outcomes are defined as the capacity of the health care system to contribute to long, healthy and productive lives.

Life expectancy at birth has increased by more than 10 years in OECD countries since 1960, reflecting a sharp decrease in mortality rates at all ages
Higher health spending per capita is generally associated with higher life expectancy, although this link tends to be less pronounced in countries with higher spending 2009 (or latest year available)

The concept of avoidable mortality (AVM; also amenable to health care ) Deaths from certain causes that should not occur in the presence of timely and effective health care Introduced by David Rutstein in the 1970s (originally for quality assurance purposes) Walter Holland published European Community Atlas of Avoidable Deaths in 1988; intends to provide warning signals of potential shortcomings in health care delivery Mackenbach et al. argue that associations between AVM and health care services are rather weak and inconsistent. Most health care measures only reflect quantity and not quality. Many studies use insufficient set of covariates. Nolte and McKee (2002) reviewed list of amenable causes of death

In most EU/ EEA countries, persons s report few problems pobe swt with access
The health sector has become the main sector for employment with wide variation across countries
The number of physicians per capita has increased in all OECD countries since 2000 (except in Slovakia)
F Health expenditure per capita varies widely across OECD countries
F OECD countries allocate 9.5% of their GDP to health - with variation from 17.4% in the United States to 6% in Turkey
The number of MRI units and CT scanners: enormous variation between countries
The average length of stay for acute care has fallen in nearly all OECD countries
but large variations still exist for most conditions
Variations is even larger for certain procedures; here: coronary angioplasty
Variations is even larger for certain procedures; here: hip implants (I)
Variations is even larger for certain procedures; here: hip implants (II) and knee implants
Treatment for chronic diseases is not optimal. In many countries, too many persons are admitted to hospitals for COPD
too many persons are admitted to hospitals for diabetes complications, highlighting the need to improve primary care
And many patients die after normal surgery
