Services Research

The long-awaited Wills Implementation Committee Report (CoA 2000), which was completed by Novemberlast year, has now been released. Wills' earlier Report (CoA 1998) identified the need for the development ofhealth services research capacity in Australia, and this new Report recommends how this should be done,through the establishment and support of several large multi-disciplinary centres. These should be based aroundhealth services, health policy, health economics, public health and clinical practice and these are required to givescientific leadership to Australia's efforts in priority-driven research. They are to be funded through NHMRC,with funds rising to $10m per annum.

Different Types

Although health maintenance organization (HMO) structures and databases are not uniform across plans, there are unique characteristics of HMO data in general that make them useful in examining health policy and delivery issues. The authors examine differences in data generated by different types of HMOs. After discussing why health services research using HMO data is needed by HMOs, other providers, practitioners, payers, and consumers of health care, the authors examine ways in which HMOs can provide sound answers to crucially important questions about the future of health care. They conclude that although the need for research on HMOs is compelling, researchers need to understand the information needs of HMOs and the incentives that are shaping the industry's approach to system delivery and clinical outcomes research. If HMOs do not take the lead in conducting health services research, they will diminish their role in shaping policies that will shape their future evolution.
