Themes
The survival of health care systems remains an outstanding issue in Western countries. How
can we deal with a steadily increasing demand for health care due mainly to an aging
population while at the same time experiencing tightening financial constraints?
This phenomenon -- also known in France as papy crash, after the phrase papy boom, itself
a pun on baby boom -- is already having a noticeable impact on the organization of health
care and on those involved in health care systems. Therefore, the main subject of the
conference is the sustainability of health care systems under demographic change.
Main questions are: Can the concept of "progress" still be applied to health care systems?
What are innovative ways to support financing an increasing demand given tightening
constraints? Should there be more competition or should cooperation be promoted between
the different actors in health care systems? How may innovation contribute to the continuity
of care? And above all: what does a sustainable health care system mean? What are the
instruments to measure these changes?
The key themes of the 4th ISRICH conference are:
· How do the demographic changes (aging of the population) affect health care
systems and the work of health professionals?
· What does a sustainable health care system really mean?
· How can we measure performance, effectiveness and sustainability of the health care
system as well as of its organizations?
· How are new innovation and new knowledge created in health care systems and how
do they reach patients?
