Abstract

La question de la santé, en Suisse, concerne chacun de ses habitants: l'assurance-maladie est obligatoire. Mais quel enchevêtrement de législations fédérales et cantonales! Quel labyrinthe dans les structures hospitalières! Les responsables des finances publiques y perdent leur latin. Face à des covªts qui explosent, ils peinent à distinguer la voie du bien commun. La population est directement affectée dans sa vie privée. Ponctionnée par impôts et cotisations, elle voit s'affronter, derrière le jeu des partis, les intérêts conflictuels des cliniques, des caisses-maladie, du corps médical, des administrations, de l'industrie pharmaceutique et des multiples professionnels des soins ou de la prévention. Ce livre innove par son exposé clair et synthétique de l'ensemble de ce système. Il intègre économie, éthique, progrès techniques, rôle des médecins et justice sociale. Il se montre vigoureux dans son propos central, dégageant les problèmes majeurs qu'il faut absolument résoudre. Il pointe sur les choix. Il en appelle à une politique de la santé digne de ce nom.

Abstract

In analysing the phenomenon of health sector reforms, this book proposes a new conceptual framework of analysis and ethnography as a methodological tool which could be used effectively in various country contexts compared to what the existing theoretical frameworks do. Thus, apart from generating new knowledge in health sector, this study has significance for policy makers across the world. When the states themselves accept the fact that increasing private participation in health care in the...

Abstract

Ne mourra-t-on bientôt plus que par manque de savoir-vivre — et non plus de maladie ? Les progrès considérables de la médecine depuis un demi-siècle se traduisent par un allongement continu de la durée de vie. Les performances extraordinaires de l'imagerie médicale, mais aussi une compréhension toujours plus subtile des processus biologiques permettent au cancérologue Lucien Israël, président de l'Académie des sciences morales et politiques en 2007, de prédire qu'un jour prochain, les médecins pourront dire à leurs patients : « Ce n'est pas grave, c'est un cancer ». Pourtant tout ne va pas pour le mieux dans le monde de la santé. L'enseignement de la médecine souffre d'une désaffection chronique des pouvoirs publics et… des étudiants. La désorganisation hospitalière donne le blues aux hommes de l'art alors que s'étendent les déserts médicaux dans nombre de régions françaises. Par ce check-up de la santé, l'Académie des sciences morales et politiques dénonce un nouveau paradoxe français : les Français se portent de mieux en mieux et leur médecine de plus en plus mal. Comment soigner la médecine ? Ce livre s'efforce de répondre sans détour.

Abstract

This paper exploits the staggered adoption of major concurrent health reforms in countries in Europe and Central Asia after 1990 to estimate their impact on public health expenditure, utilization, and avoidable deaths. While the health systems all derived from the same paradigm under central planning, they have since introduced changes to policies regarding cost-sharing, provider payment, financing, and the rationalization of hospital infrastructure. Social health insurance is predicted to increase this share, although the leads of both social health insurance and primary care fee-for-service suggest endogeneity may be an issue with the outpatient share regressions. Provider payment reforms produce the largest impact on spending, with fee-for-service increasing spending and patient-based payment reducing it. The impact on avoidable deaths is generally negligible, but there is some evidence of improvements due to fee-for-service. Considering the corresponding relative reduction in inpatient admissions and the incentives fee-for-service provides to deliver additional services, perhaps there is an overprovision of services in the primary care setting and an underutilization of more specialized hospital services.
