New realities are
placing pressures on the healthcare industry, and how patient care is
delivered. Rising hospital management costs, an aging population, shortage of
healthcare workers, challenges in accessing services, timely availability of
information, issues of safety and quality, and rising consumerism have all
added to the highly complex facts of today’s healthcare system. The dynamics
between patients, doctors and hospitals is changing with improved personal
income, and the value of a patient’s life is multiplied leading to more
aggressive approach to saving crushed lives by hospitals as expected by
patients and kin. The industry has reached a point of chasm, where they need
to decide how services could be delivered more effectively to reduce costs,
improve quality, and extend reach to the community. The recent decision
allowing the entry of private agencies in health insurance is an important
step taken by the government to reach out to the vast majority of people who
are without any insurance coverage. The corporate hospitals and other agencies
will play an important role in the current scenario.
The critical
questions facing the industry today include: how can we effectively manage
hospitals and provide enhanced services without placing additional burden on a
system already pushed to its limits; how can we provide care in a
cost-efficient manner at a time when healthcare spending is rising; and how do
we most efficiently use our resources and support front-line staff in order to
reduce medical errors and enhance quality of care.
To address these
issues, there is a need for a properly trained pool of hospital administrators
who can design and deliver quality health services. Today the success of a
hospital administrator lies in multidisciplinary conceptual skill development
and to protect medical profession and clients from unnecessary litigation;
human resource development; quality management, risk management; environment
conservation; marketing, logistic, emergency management etc. Their
responsibilities are numerous & require the assistance of the medical
& supporting staff. They act as liaisons between governing boards, medical
staff & department heads & integrates the activities of all
departments.
Following policies
set by a governing board of trustees, administrators plan, organize, and
direct control & coordinates medical & health services to cater to the
needs of the hospital & community. The concept of development of
specialized skills and leadership in hospital administration has further
emphasized the need to rationalize the resource utilization and to maximize
output in health sector. Therefore, the hospital administrator of the future
needs to be well equipped to meet the challenges and this can be effectively
performed if he possesses a master’s degree in health service
administration. National accreditation board for hospitals and Health care
providers has laid down standards that make hospital patient staff and
environment friendly. NABH standards also states that hospital administrator
should be qualified in hospital management / administration. He should have a
master’s degree in health service administration.
