Abstract For the last several decades, global airline alliances have ensured their market presence in the aviation industry. Scholars have focused on the effects of alliance affiliation for airlines and what the competitive advantages of alliances are. However, these issues have been discussed in relation to operational aspects. The quality of strategic communication can be an important factor in achieving a competitive advantage and realizing a differentiation strategy. This study assessed the differences in quality of strategic communication between the three leading alliance groups (oneworld, SkyTeam, and Star Alliance) and a non-alliance group. Comprehensive content analysis was implemented using the letters of chief executive officers (CEOs) of 46 airlines. We found that the non-alliance group has more ideal CEO letters than the alliance groups, and the main topics and quality of CEO letters of alliance group differed. This study provides a novel insight into the competitive advantage of global airline alliances.

UNSTRUCTURED Public health service is an important component and pathway to achieve universal health coverage (UHC), a major direction where many countries are striving for. China's National Basic Public Health Service Program are highly consistent with the direction. It provides life cycle services to the whole population with an equitable and affordable financing system. Its implementation builds up capacity and quality of health workforce and contributes to the integration of public health service delivery system. All of these is useful experience for China on its journey to UHC. Meanwhile, there are also some challenges, including lack of selection and exit mechanism of service items, inadequate system integration, shortage of qualified professionals, limited role of actors outside of health sector, and subsidy standard lower than the cost. In the future, China needs to address those challenges, especially to optimize service items, enhance quality of the services, and evaluate the health outcomes.

Due to the dynamic changing environment, firms have to continuously promote novelty and variety. Particularly in the service sector, the concept of dynamic service innovation capability (DSIC) has created a lot of attention. Five major dimensions including sensing customer needs, sensing technological options, conceptualising ideas to practices, co-producing and orchestrating, and scaling and stretching, have been identified as some of the most important factors to win competitive advantages. However, empirical validations regarding the generalisability of DSIC constructs and its influences on service innovation, competitive advantage and organisational performance are still limited. Using a questionnaire survey approach, data were obtained from 258 respondents who are executive managers of convenient stores, supermarkets, home shopping, retailed, etc. The results concluded that learning orientation, knowledge resources and relationship-based assets are three of the major antecedents that can promote DSIC. Service innovation, competitive advantage, and organisational performance are the major consequences of DSIC. Furthermore, market dynamism and market orientation can serve as two of the moderators to strengthen the influences of DSIC on service innovation, competitive advantage and organisational performance.

Aims and context: This paper reports the evaluation of the Doorway program (2015-18) in Melbourne, Australia. Doorway extends the original Housing First (HF) model in providing housing support to people with precarious housing at-risk of homelessness with Serious and Persistent Mental Illnesses (SPMIs) receiving care within Victoria’s public mental health system. Doorway participants source and choose properties through the open rental market, and receive rental subsidies, assistance, advocacy and brokerage support through their Housing and Recovery Worker (HRW). The aim of this study is to estimate Doorway’s impact on participants’ housing, quality of life and mental health service use. Methodology: The study employed a a quasi-experimental study design with a comparison group, adjusted for ten potential confounders. The primary outcome measure was days of secure housing per participant. Secure housing status, health service usage and quality of life (HoNOS) data were extracted from participants’ electronic hospital and Doorway records in deidentified, non-reidentifiable form. Analysis for continuous outcome variables was based on multivariate GLM modelling. Results: Doorway housed 89 (57%) of 157 accepted participants. The 157 Doorway participants overall were also housed for significantly more days (119.4 extra days per participant) than control participants, albeit after some delay in locating and moving into housing (mean 14 weeks). There was a significant, positive Doorway effect on health outcomes (all and one dimension of the HoNOS). Doorway participants had significantly reduced length of stay during acute and community hospital admissions (7.4 fewer days per participant) compared with the control group. Conclusion: The Doorway model represents a new and substantial opportunity to house, enhance health outcomes and reduce mental health service use for people with SPMIs from the public mental health sector and at-risk of homelessness.

In this chapter the user interface perception and resources for mobile technology (MT) support in health care service activities is investigated. Most procedures oriented to provide better operation and quality of health service depend on the existing information and communication technology (ICT) system. However, the implementation of new technology competes with funding available for health institutions resources, hence introducing them is complex. The technical difficulties encountered in using ICT are: an inadequate physical infrastructure, quality of service (QoS) issues, and insufficient access by the user to the hardware/software communication infrastructure. A case study by multi-criteria approach was investigated involving three categories of hospitals in Chile and empirical data was collected comprising diverse health sector representatives. The main contribution is the proposed research decision-making model using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to evaluate and compare information and communications systems as fixed, wireless, or computer-assisted provisions for health-related activities and to identify the high priority dimensions in a health care service.
