ABSTRACT
Objective To collect and summarize the opinions of experts on the improvement of China's disease prevention and control system published in the public media, so as to provide reference for the relevant construction planning of the government. Methods: Articles were collected from January to May, 2020, which were published on Chinese mainstream media. Based on the analysis of literature and the basic characteristics of experts, Analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was used to summarize the construction points of experts in different construction fields. Results: A total of 19 opinion articles were finally included in the study and 29 experts were involved. The suggestions of experts on the construction of China's disease prevention and control system were summarized into four aspects. Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic is a challenge to the existing public health epidemic prevention and control system in China, and also an important opportunity for the development and construction of the related system.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To explore the establishment of an evaluation indicator system for disease prevention and control workload at public hospitals, based on the current situation of disease prevention and control work undertaken by public hospitals of and above secondary level in Beijing, and to provide evaluation assistance for them to do better in this regard.@*Methods@#This research was based on our pervious study of the current situation description of disease prevention and control work undertaken by public hospitals in Beijing, by which the contents of routine disease prevention and control work at hospitals have been initially established. The unit strength of each work was consulted, and the disease prevention and control work was classified according to the results. Meanwhile the consistency test of the work intensity within the category was carried out. After integration, the classification and evaluation indicator of disease prevention and control work in public hospitals of and above secondary level in Beijing was finally established.@*Results@#The workload evaluation indicator system was divided into eight parts: report work, report quality control work, monitoring work, training work, work of public health related clinical diagnosis and treatment, work of clinical examination and vaccination, work of sampling and testing and public health related consultation work. The work intensity of each category ranged from 4.78 to 7.34.@*Conclusions@#The evaluation indicator system of workload is suitable for the evaluation of basic works. The unified transformation of workload by using the value of work intensity is conducive to management evaluation, but the limitation of the indicators exists in time and region, making it necessary to adjust by the local specific situation at the promotion and application level.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To investigate the implementation of disease prevention and control services at tertiary public general hospitals in Beijing for providing evidences to explore and build a scientific evaluation model of disease control service in medical institutions.@*Methods@#June to September 2018, through a questionnaire survey of 50 tertiary public general hospitals in Beijing, a descriptive analysis was made on the department setting, personnel allocation and service provision status of disease prevention and control at tertiary public general hospitals in Beijing.@*Results@#Among the 44 investigated public tertiary general hospitals, 26(59.1%) medical institutions have set up departments of disease prevention and control. The average staffing of 44 hospitals was 5.8 persons for the department. Professional composition of the staff was mostly nursing and clinical disciplines, and the academic and professional titles were mostly undergraduate and intermediate degrees respectively. Overall performance of disease prevention and control services in public tertiary general hospitals was satisfactory. The work was well carried out in communicable disease control and death-surveillance management, namely in immunoprophylaxis, chronic noncommunicable diseases and injury monitoring, which varies widely in mental health services, occupational health management, environmental and health monitoring and other functions.@*Conclusions@#Professional ability and management level of personnel still need to be improved. We should further clarify the joint prevention and control mechanism of the " Three-in-one" nature of disease control institutions, medical institutions and communities, promote the combination of medical treatment and prevention, and explore the classification and grading evaluation of disease control work based on the types and quantity requirements of disease prevention and control services undertaken by hospitals, so as to effectively improve the level of disease control services in hospitals.
ABSTRACT
An assessment is a key to public health management. This article reviewed the experiences and researches of assessment on public-health system, as well as public health service quality of medical institutions in America, the United Kingdom and Australia among other countries. On such basis, suggestions were provided on assessments of public health service in China, in order to help the government to improve its indicator evaluation system.
ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT
A number of studies on hospital information system (HIS) and regional information platform have been carried out in different medical institutions since HIS was defined as one ofThe 4 Beams and 8 Pillarsin 2009 , during which good results were achieved and many problems were exposed .The application of electronic medical record (EMR), a key part of HIS, is grealy concerned.The application of electronic medical record system ( EMRS) and related problems were thus described in this paper in order to provide reference for bringing it into a better play, normalizing its management, and reducing its disadvantages.
ABSTRACT
Based on a definition of the concept and its connotation,and summary of the evolution and practice of global budget in China,this paper focused on analyzing the existing problems,namely a defective mechanism in the determination and adj ustment of the total budget,unreasonable settlement, absence of a regulatory mechanism and poor linkage of this system with other payment modes reform.Thus the authors proposed such policy recommendations as designated management of those covered by health insurance,and experiments with the global budget mode for regional groups,scientific estimation and adj ustment of the total budget,reasonable setting of settlement standards and rules,and enhanced supervision and appraisal,as well as various payment system reforms based on global budget.
ABSTRACT
With the rapid development of social economy and the improvement of multi-level medical insurance system, the health demand of people continually grow and the content and quality of health demand are more and more diversified. By contrast, the growth of health resources was very slow. The contradiction between supply and demand of health services becomes increasingly sharp and health expenditure growth rapidly. So by systemizing the related concepts and main international practices and enlightenment of managing health demand in developed countries, this article aimed to provide references and suggestions for reasonably managing health demand, standardizing the order of medical treatment and improving the phenomenon ofdifficulty in treatment.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate and compare the diagnosis and treatment quality of 15 tertiary hospitals in Beijing with the quality-evaluation model of STEMI.Methods The quality-evaluation model has been formatted with the document analysis method and expert consultation method,with the indicators weighted by analytic hierarchy process.By collecting the data of 15 hospitals,we can get the values of indicators,then synthetically evaluate and compare the diagnosis and treatment quality at these 15 hospitals with the method of WRSR.Results In the diagnosing and treating the cases of STEMI at the hospitals,gaps are found between the clinical guidelines and the tests,patient evaluation,reperfusion treatment and drug therapy,with some indicators falling even below 22％.Also,there are significant differences in the diagnosis and treatment quality among hospitals.All hospitals are consistent on the five dimensions-tests,patient evaluation,reperfusion treatment,drug therapy and prognosis.Conclusion The quality-evaluation model of STEMI can comprehensively reflect the diagnosis and treatment quality of cardiovascular medicine,and partly reflect hospital's overall management level,so as to provide operating methods in improving hospital diagnosis and treatment quality.
