Lean Startup

Una start-up es definida como una empresa destinada solucionar problemas de maneras no obvias, donde el éxito no está garantizado de antemano y, solo en los casos de éxito efectivo, se adquiere un crecimiento rápido y significativo (Robehmed, 2013). Ejemplos clásicos de start-ups serían Facebook, Uber o AirBnB que, con comienzos modestos, pero con ideas innovadoras, se convirtieron con el paso del tiempo en empresas de ingresos millonarios. Una de las tantas preguntas al respecto sería la siguiente: ¿cómo lograr una start-up de éxito a sabiendas que el éxito no está garantizado a priori y, aún más, que la gran mayoría de estas fracasan?

Adoption And Implementation

The implementation of Customer relationship Management (CRM) Systems has been increased within organizations for the purposes of increasing customer loyalty accompany with decreasing expenses and increasing revenues. The perception of the benefits associated with the implementation of CRM systems is an essential step for the adoption and implementation of CRM systems. Therefore, this paper presents the study conducted to investigate the perception of the CRM systems in the private hospitals in the northern part of India as there is a lack of adoption of CRM systems in hospitals. Qualitative research approach that is interview based was adapted in the study. The management of 10 private hospitals in the northern part of India was interviewed. The results reveal that no hospital has adopted CRM system. In addition, there is a substantial lack of understanding of the benefits of CRM systems in hospitals. Some hospitals claim that the implementation of CRM system is not of their priorities and there are much important projects as the implementation of Electronic Medical Records (EMD). However, other hospitals indicate for an existence of future plan for the adoption and implementation of CRM system. Another issue that needs to be taken into consideration by the vendors of CRM systems is the high costs associated with the implementation of CRM systems in hospitals. Indeed, both the vendors of CRM systems and the managers of hospitals hold the responsibility of the lack of CRM systems implementation in hospitals.

Clinical Adoption

BACKGROUND The US Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act of 2009, which was intended to stimulate the use of electronic health record (EHR) systems, has been amended to cover the behavioral health sector. Consequently, there is an increased need for research on the adoption of behavioral EHR systems by healthcare professionals. Various quantitative studies based on the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology model and technology acceptance model have been conducted in the general medical sectors, but few studies have been conducted in the behavioral sector and they have all been interview-based qualitative studies. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the adoption and implementation of a behavioral EHR system for behavioral clinical professionals through a modified clinical adoption (CA) research model quantitative study. METHODS We modified the existing CA framework to be suitable for evaluating the adoption of the EHR system by behavioral clinical professionals. The existing CA framework did not present questionnaire items. Accordingly, we designed a questionnaire with items that fit into the dimensions of the CA framework and it was verified through the review of behavioral clinical professionals and a pre-survey. The full-scale survey was administered in 5 US behavioral hospitals. The data were analyzed using a structural equation analysis. Additionally, open-ended question responses were qualitatively analyzed. RESULTS We derived a total of 7 dimensions, excluding dimensions that were evaluated as inappropriate for behavioral clinical professionals to respond. In addition, for 2 dimensions, 2 sub-dimensions were classified. A total of 409 behavioral clinical experts from 5 hospitals were surveyed. The ease of use and organizational support significantly influenced the use of the behavioral EHR system. Although the results were not significant, information quality (path coefficient=1.19, P>.05) and service quality (path coefficient=.085, P>.05) tended to influence the ease of use of the system. And Ease of Use (path coefficient=.253, P<.05) and the Organization (path coefficient=.802, P<.05) influenced the use of the system. The qualitative results indicated that the greatest advantage of the adoption of the behavioral EHR system was the ability to search for information quickly, work efficiently, and access patient information even outside of the hospital through the mobile app, resulting in having more time with patients. Conversely, the greatest disadvantage was an overdependence on the EHR system. Many staff members voiced concerns that their work could be paralyzed when the system was unstable. CONCLUSIONS This study designed a model for evaluating behavioral EHR adoption and conducted a quantitative study to derive the factors associated with the successful introduction of an EHR system in a behavioral environment. CLINICALTRIAL The study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of Seoul National University Bundang Hospital (SNUBH) (IRB No.: B-1904-534-301).

Abstract This presentation documents the continuing failure to tackle the problem of financing long-term services and supports (LTSS)—a failure most recently seen in the only national legislation ever enacted to comprehensively address LTSS costs: the Community Living Assistance Services and Supports (CLASS) Act. The CLASS Act was included in the Affordable Care Act, but was repealed in 2013. Subsequently, policy experts and some Democrats have made proposals for addressing the LTSS financing crisis. Moreover, significant government action is taking place at the state level, both to relieve financial and emotional burdens on LTSS recipients and their families and to ease pressure on state budgets. Lessons from these initiatives could serve as opportunities for learning how to overcome roadblocks to successful policy development, adoption, and implementation across states and for traversing the policy and political tradeoffs should a policy window open once again for addressing the problem of LTSS financing nationally.

Optimal Implementation

Legal education in Indonesia has followed a traditional model, focusing on the rote transfer of legal doctrine. Students are taught legal theories and sources of law but not how to critically apply the law in concrete real-world scenarios. Consequently, law graduates tend to be unprepared for the workforce, which is a regular complaint of employers. To overcome this impediment, some law faculties in Indonesia adopted clinical legal education (CLE) as a ‘new method’ in the legal education system, whereby students not just learn theory but also gain practical legal experience. This article analyses the adoption of the model and methods of applying CLE to legal education in Indonesia. This study uses the doctrinal research method with a qualitative approach. It is found that the adoption of CLE in Indonesia is diverse; some programmes include it in the core curriculum, while others make it an extracurricular activity. CLE programmes generally use three of six methods, namely street law, advocacy and internship. The differences in the three methods of CLE directly influence their success, exposing participants to interaction with live clients, public speaking and networking. This article recommends that in order to achieve the optimal implementation of CLE, uniformity of the CLE adoption model in Indonesia’s legal education curriculum is needed.

Clinical Care Pathway

Background: Disease-associated malnutrition (DAM) is common in hospitalized children. This survey aimed to assess current in-hospital practices for clinical care of pediatric DAM in Canada. Methods: An electronic survey was sent to all 15 tertiary pediatric hospitals in Canada and addressed all pillars of malnutrition care: screening, assessment, treatment, monitoring and follow-up. Results: Responses of 120 health care professionals were used from all 15 hospitals; 57.5% were medical doctors (MDs), 26.7% registered dietitians (RDs) and 15.8% nurses (RNs). An overarching protocol for prevention, detection and intervention of pediatric malnutrition was present or “a work in progress”, according to 9.6% of respondents. Routine nutritional screening on admission was sometimes or always performed, according to 58.8%, although the modality differed among hospitals and profession. For children with poor nutritional status, lack of nutritional follow-up after discharge was reported by 48.5%. Conclusions: The presence of a standardized protocol for the clinical assessment and management of DAM is uncommon in pediatric tertiary care hospitals in Canada. Routine nutritional screening upon admission has not been widely adopted. Moreover, ongoing nutritional care of malnourished children after discharge seems cumbersome. These findings call for the adoption and implementation of a uniform clinical care pathway for malnutrition among pediatric hospitals.
