The World Health
Organization (WHO) uses
the broader term
‘HEALTH TECHNOLOGY',
which it defines as
including:
‘devices, drugs, medical
and surgical procedures –
and the knowledge
associated with these –
used in the prevention,
diagnosis and treatment
of disease.
(Source: Kwankam, Y, et al, 2001, ‘Health care
technology policy framework’, WHO Regional
Publications,
Hospital
management
is one of the
most
complex
management
areas that
anyone can
work in.

Which are the 2 main issues that prevent
the adoption of technology in healthcare?
1. No one wants to pay for the new technologies.
• We need to switch from fee-for-service to pay-for-value
2. Technology may slow down many Physicians.
• Time consuming, “unnecessary” data, fear

The top 3 challenges that today’s Hospitals face in
implementing Healthcare Technology
1. Regulatory Standards
Non compliance with standards can lead to poor quality of care and fine
2. Maintaining patient safety and patient satisfaction
Infection, power failure, radiation etc
3. Financial challenges and Hospital productivity.
Do more with less, without compromising quality of care

Conclusions
Healthcare Technology’s significance for public health is that it Influences
healthcare more than any other force, and in the future it will continue to
develop in dramatic ways.
While we can glimpse and debate the details of future trends in healthcare,
we need to be clear about the drivers so we can align with them and actively
work to ensure the best outcomes for society as a whole.
