    • Chancen für das deutsche Gesundheitssystem

      Von Partikularinteressen zu mehr Patientennutzen

      • 376 páginas
      • 14 horas de lectura

      Das deutsche Gesundheitssystem ist auf Kollisionskurs mit der ökonomischen Realität. Die Kosten sind hoch und steigen weiter, und Qualitätsprobleme bei den Leistungserbringern werden immer offensichtlicher. Jahrzehnte von Reformen haben diesen besorgniserregenden Trend kaum geändert. Warum hat es Deutschland nicht geschafft, die Kosten- und Qualitätsprobleme zu lösen? Das heutige System ist dominiert von Partikularinteressen. Nicht Kostenkontrolle, sondern die Steigerung des Patientennutzens – definiert als Behandlungsergebnis pro ausgegebenem Euro – ist das Ziel, das alle Akteure vereinigen kann. Dazu muss man nicht auf die nächste Gesundheitsreform warten. Massive Verbesserungen lassen sich schon heute zum Vorteil aller verwirklichen. In den zwölf Empfehlungen des Buches geht es darum, wie sich Leistungserbringer um Krankheitsbilder organisieren, wie Wettbewerb um messbare Ergebnisqualität die Norm wird, wie Krankenkassen eine aktivere Rolle in der Gesundheit ihrer Versicherten einnehmen und wie das Vergütungssystem zukünftig Exzellenz in der Versorgung einzelner Krankheitsbilder belohnen sollte. Darüber hinaus zeigen die Autoren, warum die Einbindung der Privaten Krankenversicherung in den Risikostrukturausgleich der Gesetzlichen Krankenkassen unausweichlich ist. Wenn der Patientennutzen in den Mittelpunkt gestellt wird, entstehen Chancen für alle.

    • The U.S. health care system is in crisis. At stake are the quality of care for millions of Americans and the financial well-being of individuals and employers squeezed by skyrocketing premiums—not to mention the stability of state and federal government budgets.In Redefining Health Care, internationally renowned strategy expert Michael Porter and innovation expert Elizabeth Teisberg reveal the underlying—and largely overlooked—causes of the problem, and provide a powerful prescription for change.The authors argue that competition currently takes place at the wrong level—among health plans, networks, and hospitals—rather than where it matters most, in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of specific health conditions. Participants in the system accumulate bargaining power and shift costs in a zero-sum competition, rather than creating value for patients. Based on an exhaustive study of the U.S. health care system, Redefining Health Care lays out a breakthrough framework for redefining the way competition in health care delivery takes place—and unleashing stunning improvements in quality and efficiency.With specific recommendations for hospitals, doctors, health plans, employers, and policy makers, this book shows how to move health care toward positive-sum competition that delivers lasting benefits for all.

      Z předmluvy autora: Tato kniha, která představuje milník na intelektuální cestě, po níž kráčím většinu svého profesionálního života, vyvěrá z mých výzkumů a z mé výuky ekonomie průmyslových organizací a konkurenční strategie. Konkurenční strategie, oblast, která je v popředí zájmu řídících pracovníků, je mimořádně závislá na citlivém chápání odvětví národního hospodářství a konkurentů. Nicméně ve sféře strategie jen stěží najdeme analytickou techniku, která by nám umožnila toto chápání, a ty, jež existují, postrádají dosud potřebnou šíři a komplexnost. Naopak; jelikož ekonomové se dlouho zabývali studiem struktury odvětví, avšak většinou z pohledu veřejné politiky, ekonomický výzkum se nezaměřil na problémy řídících pracovníků v podnikání.

    • Competitive Advantage of Nations

      With the publication of his best-selling books, Michael E. Porter established himself as the leading authority on competitive advantage. Now, he explores what makes a nation's firms and industries competitive in global markets and drives national economies. He presents a new paradigm that may supplant the 200-year-old concept of "comparative advantage" in analyzing international competitiveness. To develop this work, Porter and his associates conducted in-depth research in ten leading nations, examining industry success patterns, company strategies, and national policies. The nations studied include Britain, Denmark, Germany, Italy, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United States, representing a diverse range of sizes, government policies, social philosophies, and geographies. Porter's research identifies the fundamental determinants of national competitive advantage and how they function as a system. He highlights the phenomenon of "clustering," where related groups of successful firms and industries emerge to dominate global markets. Among the over 100 industries analyzed are Germany's chemical and printing sectors, Switzerland's textile equipment and pharmaceuticals, and America's computer software and movies. Building on his theory, Porter outlines the stages of competitive development that national economies experience. His findings offer valuable insights for firms and governments, providing strateg

    • Michael E. Porter's Competitive Advantage serves as a crucial complement to his earlier work, Competitive Strategy, by delving into the foundations of competitive advantage within individual firms. The book introduces a transformative perspective on a firm's operations through the concept of the value chain, which breaks down a company into distinct activities that serve as the essential components of competitive advantage. This framework has become integral to international business strategy, transitioning from broad concepts to a coherent arrangement of activities. It equips managers with the tools to analyze cost drivers and assess a company's relative cost position. Porter's value chain allows for the identification of the sources of buyer value that can command premium prices and explains the dynamics of product substitution. The book emphasizes that competitive advantage is derived not just from individual activities but also from how these activities interconnect with each other, suppliers, and customers. Additionally, it introduces methods for strategically segmenting industries and evaluating the rationale behind diversification. The widespread use of the terms "competitive advantage" and "sustainable competitive advantage" reflects the impact of Porter's insights, which have influenced numerous companies, students, and scholars in grasping the complexities of competition and making strategy actionable.

    • Now nearing its sixtieth printing in English and translated into nineteen languages, Michael E. Porter's work has transformed business strategy globally. Porter's analysis of industries simplifies the complexity of competition into five underlying forces. He introduces three generic strategies—lowest cost, differentiation, and focus—that structure strategic positioning. By defining competitive advantage in terms of relative cost and prices, he links it directly to profitability and offers a new perspective on profit creation and division. Over the past two decades, Porter's framework for predicting competitor behavior has changed how companies view their rivals, leading to the emergence of competitor assessment as a new discipline. More than a million managers, analysts, consultants, students, and scholars worldwide have embraced Porter's ideas to assess industries, understand competitors, and determine competitive positions. The concepts presented address the fundamentals of competition, independent of specific competitive methods. This work has filled a significant gap in management thinking, providing a solid foundation for future studies. By offering a structured approach to achieving superior profitability, Porter's insights deliver a sophisticated view of competition that remains unmatched in the last twenty-five years.
