Topic: Investigate Report on a Current Health Management Issue ( Topic 2 Managing Quality and Safety) Order Description 400277 HEALTH SERVECES MANAGEMENT Assessment 2: Investigative Report on a Current Health Management Issue Length: 1500 words Task Consider ONE only of the following four topics. Remember as a guide ten additional references to those provided on vUWS will be expected. Make use of the online library research facilities! Use report format for this assignment. Question 1 The National Hea/th Reform Act (2011) created a number of organisations that play vital roles in Australian health care. One of these organisations is the Independent Hospital Pricing Authority (lHPA). What does the Act say is the objective of the lHPA? What are the functions of lHPA? What do you think the impact of these changes will be on the delivery of health care in NSW? Remember to read the Act. Reference your assignment to sections of the Act Question 2 Health care needs to be considered in terms of quality and safety as well as volume. Conditions which prevailed at Mid-Staffordshire NHS Foundation Trust remind us that manager’s play a vital role in ensuring care is of the highest possible standard. According to the Francis and Ben/Vick Reports what did the managers at Mid Staffordshire not do well? Is there the risk of similar management failure in Australia? Why or why not? What Australian processes are there to ensure similar failures do not happen here? Question 3 Some people successfully make the transition from clinician to manager and ultimately to become a leader in health services. What are the characteristics that may aid or hinder that transition? Are those characteristics assessable objectively? Do we only discover people who cannot make the change when they fail as managers? What would improve the quality of health managers in the NSW health services?
