RESUMO
Una aproximación para medir el nivel de atención expresada en la calidad de servicio que se presta al paciente en los establecimientos de salud está referida al uso de modelos de medición, que en este artículo se describen desde la propuesta por Donabedian basado en la teoría general de sistemas evaluando estructura, proceso y resultado, pasando a segundo plano la percepción del paciente. Este modelo contrasta con el modelo Nórdico que enfatiza la imagen corporativa, con un balance entre el servicio esperado y la percepción del servicio, basado en el paradigma de la desconfirmación al igual que el modelo presentado por Nguyen. En esta última línea paradigmática se encuentra el modelo más notorio, SERVQUAL que contrasta las expectativas y la precepción del usuario de un servicio identificando brechas en base a las 5 dimensiones propuestas fiabilidad, seguridad, elementos tangibles, capacidad de respuesta, y la empatía, posteriormente basado en este modelo se propone el modelo SERVPERF, basada exclusivamente en la valoración de las percepciones. Posteriormente, se describen el modelo de Desempeño Evaluado que surge como un modelo alternativo al SERVQUAL sustituyendo las expectativas por el concepto de punto ideal; el Modelo Jerárquico Multidimensional que desarrolla una solución tridimensional para completar la modelización de la calidad de servicio. De igual manera el modelo multietapa de valoraciones de la calidad que identifica la disconformidad que existe las expectativas del cliente en relación al servicio y las percepciones de las características por niveles de componente
One approach to measuring the level of care expressed in the quality of service provided to the patient in health facilities is referred to as the use of measurement models described in this paperstarting with the one proposed by Donabedian based on the general theory of systems evaluating structure, process and outcome, with the patient's perception taking second place. In contrast, the Nordic model emphasizes the corporate image, with a balance between the expected service and the perception of the service, based on the paradigm of disconfirmation as well as the model presented by Nguyen. In this paradigmatic line the most notorious model, SERVQUAL, contrasts the expectations and the user's perception of a service identifying gaps based on the 5 proposed dimensions reliability, security, tangible elements, responsiveness, and empathy, later based on this model the SERVPERF model is proposed, based exclusively on the valuation of perceptions. In addition, the Evaluated Performance model, which emerges as an alternative model to SERVQUAL, replaces expectations with the concept of ideal point. And the Multidimensional Hierarchical Model develops a three-dimensional solution to complete the modeling of service quality, as well as the multi-stage model of quality assessments that identifies the non-conformity that exists between customer expectations in relation to the service and the perceptions of the characteristics by component levels

Satisfação Pessoal , Comportamento do ConsumidorRESUMO
Financial barriers can affect timely access to maternal health services. Health insurance can influence the use and quality of these services and potentially improve maternal and neonatal health outcomes. We conducted a systematic review of the evidence on health insurance and its effects on the use and provision of maternal health services and on maternal and neonatal health outcomes in middle- and low-income countries. Studies were identified through a literature search in key databases and consultation with experts in healthcare financing and maternal health. Twenty-nine articles met the review criteria of focusing on health insurance and its effect on the use or quality of maternal health services, or maternal and neonatal health outcomes. Sixteen studies assessed demand-side effects of insurance, eight focused on supply-side effects, and the remainder addressed both. Geographically, the studies provided evidence from sub-Saharan Africa (n=11), Asia (n=9), Latin America (n=8), and Turkey. The studies included examples from national or social insurance schemes (n=7), government-run public health insurance schemes (n=4), community-based health insurance schemes (n=11), and private insurance (n=3). Half of the studies used econometric analyses while the remaining provided descriptive statistics or qualitative results. There is relatively consistent evidence that health insurance is positively correlated with the use of maternal health services. Only four studies used methods that can establish this causal relationship. Six studies presented suggestive evidence of overprovision of caesarean sections in response to providers’ payment incentives through health insurance. Few studies focused on the relationship between health insurance and the quality of maternal health services or maternal and neonatal health outcomes. The available evidence on the quality and health outcomes is inconclusive, given the differences in measurement, contradictory findings, and statistical limitations. Consistent with economic theories, the studies identified a positive relationship between health insurance and the use of maternal health services. However, more rigorous causal methods are needed to identify the extent to which the use of these services increases among the insured. Better measurement of quality and the use of cross-country analyses would solidify the evidence on the impact of insurance on the quality of maternal health services and maternal and neonatal health outcomes.

OBJECTIVE: The progress in computer and communication technologies is making the Internet increasingly heterogeneous in terms of network, hardware and software capacities. Moreover, this has made it possible for emergency telemedicine services to provide high quality medical services. However, resource availability on the Internet varies unexpectedly. Thus, providing an efficient access to emergency telemedicine services requires that medical multimedia streams be adapted according to the environment constraints. One approach to this issue is based on the use of intermediate nodes within the network to perform such adaptations (media transformations and data transcoding). For this purpose, we have designed and implemented a proxy server for Quality of Service adaptations of medical multimedia streams. METHODS: We have organized a new emergency telemedicine system by designing a proxy server to execute transcoding. The proxy server is located between a patient system and a doctor system over heterogeneous networks. Before a patient system can deliver medical video streams to a doctor system, the proxy server measures uplink bandwidth which is one of the Quality of Service factors, from the proxy server to the doctor system. At this moment, frame rates are determined according to the measured bandwidth, and the proxy server transmits medical video streams modified for new frame rates to the doctor system. We describe the implementation of this proxy server on top of the Microsoft DirectShow(R) environment and report on a performance evaluation which demonstrates the effectiveness of the approach. RESULTS: The quality of requested medical video streams can be predicted when they are adapted to the receiver. With this prediction, adapted medical video streams which meet the frame rates constraints of the receiver can be delivered without additional measurements of bandwidth. CONCLUSION: This study represents a proxy server of a hybrid multimedia telemedicine system over heterogeneous networks. We expect that the designed proxy server can provide not only dynamic Quality of Service monitoring functions along bandwidth measurement, but also medical video adaptations to the receiver in heterogeneous network environments.
