Lesson 1
2
• Weigh up the evidence carefully
• Understand the context and how this affects how the evidence is applied
![Page 3: Nigel Edwards - euro.who.int€¦ · Nigel Edwards Chief Executive, The Nuffield Trust Honorary Visiting Professor, LSHTM . ... • Co-producer of pathways and guidelines with patients](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050220/5f66381cbfa71857db4248b8/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Strong trends to regionalization
3
• Many countries are regionalizing hospital services
• Reasons for regionalization:
• Increased specialisation
• Workforce shortages
• Quality and outcome relationship • Complex multidisciplinary care • Complex procedures • But the evidence cannot be generalized • Few studies in medical specialties
• Evidence for cost savings & economies of scale is poor
Most significant opportunities • Stroke • Acute coronary syndrome • Cancer • Vascular surgery

Opportunities for decentralization
4
• But there are also opportunities to decentralize:
• Improved primary care
• New technology
Examples • Routine monitoring • Local tests & investigation • Minor procedures • Specialist consultation

Lesson 2
• Choose the model to fit the problem – is what is being provided knowledge and information or hands on care and procedures?
• There are other options than centralizing all services
• Many services that are specialized can be brought closer to where patients live

Different approaches 1
• Very specialist center –taking all referrals. Very limited role for local hospitals. Examples:
• Cardiac surgery
• Lysosomal storage disorders
• Rare cancers e.g. retinoblastoma

Hub and spoke / tiered network
• Shared pathways of care
• Division of labour

Different approaches 3

Non-hierarchical network
e.g. Parkinson Net

Lesson 3
9
• Managing these changes requires skill and well organized processes
![Page 10: Nigel Edwards - euro.who.int€¦ · Nigel Edwards Chief Executive, The Nuffield Trust Honorary Visiting Professor, LSHTM . ... • Co-producer of pathways and guidelines with patients](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050220/5f66381cbfa71857db4248b8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Planning and executing change
• Hospitals need to be planned as part of a wider system including primary care
• Markets have limitations as mechanisms for determining the shape of hospital systems
• Successful change has been based on
• Planned based on patient need
• Planning with expert input – based on regions
• Criteria based on standards – not normative input targets
• Dialogue with public and stakeholders: starts early & requires skill
• Support from doctors
• Financial frameworks to manage the impact on hospitals
• Capital investment
• On some occasions mergers to create larger units to support closure

Lesson 4
12
• Making the models work requires new ways of working for hospitals, specialists and primary care
![Page 13: Nigel Edwards - euro.who.int€¦ · Nigel Edwards Chief Executive, The Nuffield Trust Honorary Visiting Professor, LSHTM . ... • Co-producer of pathways and guidelines with patients](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050220/5f66381cbfa71857db4248b8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Making new models work 1
• Hospital – Hospital relationships
• Defining levels of care
• Transfer, escalation and step-down arrangements
• Shared pathways
• Challenges to make smaller hospitals viable and attractive places to work
![Page 14: Nigel Edwards - euro.who.int€¦ · Nigel Edwards Chief Executive, The Nuffield Trust Honorary Visiting Professor, LSHTM . ... • Co-producer of pathways and guidelines with patients](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050220/5f66381cbfa71857db4248b8/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Making new models work 2
• New roles for some specialists in supporting primary care
• Co-producer of pathways and guidelines with patients and primary care professionals
• Educator and advisor - keeping the system up to date with the science
• Support to specialist nurses and care coordinators
• Dealing with the most complex and difficult patients
• Taking a population health view: • Developing and running registries
• Identifying the highest risk patients
• Developing population health interventions
• Understanding the context & social environment

Making new models work 3
• Outreach to:
• Support for end of life care
• Support care homes
• Provide ambulatory diagnosis and treatment for emergencies
• Other changes
• Shared record systems
• Regulation
• Payment models
![Page 16: Nigel Edwards - euro.who.int€¦ · Nigel Edwards Chief Executive, The Nuffield Trust Honorary Visiting Professor, LSHTM . ... • Co-producer of pathways and guidelines with patients](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050220/5f66381cbfa71857db4248b8/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
What are the leap frog opportunities in this area?
16
• Possible ideas • Using technology
• Rethinking the role of the chronic disease specialist
• Redesigning specialist consultations – outpatients / ambulatory care
• The initial reception and management of emergencies
• Other support to primary care services in managing NCDs
• More centralization or more decentralization?
• What do you think?
