2 Handbook on HWF planning methodologies MODULE 5 Evaluation of the selected practices Annalisa Malgieri & Paolo Michelutti WP5 team _____________________________ Turin, 18 – 19 September 2014

3 7 Consolidated planning experiences as starting point…solid foundations for the selection Quantitative projections Both supply and demand European models

4 The first step to the evaluation…the checklist 5 SECTIONS 32 ITEMS 3 OPTIONS FOR THE ANSWERS SHARED AND VALIDATED BY PARTNERS IN JULY 2014 THOUGHT AS A «SELF-EVALUATION» TOOL 7 COMLETED CHECK LISTS RECEIVED HARMONIZATION OF THE EVALUATION

5 Before starting some important clarifications  The check list has not the ambition to be exhaustive of all the indicators useful for the evaluation of a planning system  The purpose of the check list is not to drawn up a classification of the goodness of different aspects of the planning systems in the analyzed Countries, but to furnish the most objective and standardized interpretation for the individuation of the good practices  Related evaluations are only referred to the current situation and to the practices today in use. This means that we haven’t taken into account practices no more in use and practices not still consolidated

6 The check list allows for different kinds of evaluations:  an evaluation and identification of strengths and weaknesses common to the different planning systems analyzed  an evaluation and identification of the specific good practices within each planning system How to use the check list?

7 2 dimensions to explore for each item … PERFORMANCE IMPORTANCE ITEM A.2 ITEM A.1 ITEM A.3 ITEM B.1 ……….. ITEM E.6 Each item is identified by coordinates (importance, performance)

8 4 different areas identified MAP OF STRENGHTS AND WEAKNESSES

9 Let’s take a look at the results…(1/4) B.1 The assumptions in the forecasting model are regularly re-assessed in light of changing circumstances, new data, new policies and programs. C.1 Data used in the forecasting model are regularly updated in order to have a realistic picture of what is the current situation of the HWF demand and supply. C.2The HWF planning tool considers the entire work life cycle (supply side). D.1 There is a control and continuous monitoring process to check if the planning objectives are reached. D.6 The planning system allows the Ministry of Education to fix the number of positions for trainees E.3The parameters in the forecasting model are discussed and agree with stakeholders. E.5 Tasks and corresponding competences of people and institutions involved in the planning process are clearly defined. AREA OF EXCELLENCE

10 A.1 The goals of the HWF planning system are explicit and clearly defined. A.4 The HWF planning system includes short- and long-term targets with multiple time frames. B.2 The HWF forecasting model is flexible and can easily be changed and adapted by authorities competent for planning. B.3 The HWF planning tool estimates any current imbalances and it doesn’t assume a current equilibrium between supply and demand. B.5 The HWF forecasting model produces different scenarios on the base of different patterns values (i.e. university training capacity, attrition rates, retirement patterns, migration flows). B.9 The HWF planning system takes into account the interaction between professions using a multi-professional teamwork approach. B.10 The planning system forecasts the trend of dependence of the health care system on foreign trained HWF personnel. B.11 The HWF planning system takes into account budget constraints in its scenarios and it allows to evaluate alternative allocations of resources (i.e. budget for specialist training for medical doctors). C.3 Data collected on current stock of HWF allow to know: number of active professionals; number of full-time equivalent; types of providers; where they work; their skills; the services they provide; workloads. D.2 The planning system develops tools (i.e. check lists, guidelines) to evaluate and inform the decision making process on its own planning capacity (self-evaluation). D.6 The HWF planning system defines objectives and actions to address geographical mal-distribution and imbalances. E.4 Stakeholders participate in the elaboration of scenarios. Let’s take a look at the results…(2/4) AREA OF IMPROVEMENT

11 B.8 The forecasting model can be applied to different health professions. C.4 The HWF planning tool uses demand data which allow estimating the health care utilization and the population needs, in addition to size and structure (age and sex) of the population. E.6 There is a formal mechanisms for health education planners to discuss on HWF needs Let’s take a look at the results…(3/4) AREA OF MAINTENANCE

12 Let’s take a look at the results…(4/4) AREA OF INDIFFERENCE A.2 The goals of the HWF planning system are based on a comprehensive and updated analysis of the future health needs of the population. A.3 The goals of the HWF planning are based on the analysis of skills needed to deliver planned health services in the future. B.4The HWF planning tool considers the expected impacts of health service delivery changes. B.6 The HWF projections are specific to the different healthcare sectors (e.g. Acute Care vs. Primare Care; Public sector vs. Private Sector). B.7 The HWF planning is harmonized with social and economic development and the planning of other related sectors: i.e. basic assistance, social protection, prevention, sport, education. D.3 The planning system allows policy makers to receive updated reports on demand in a reasonable timeframe (3 to 6 months). D.5The HWF planning system defines objectives and actions on retirement patterns and attrition rates. D.7 The planning system provides indicators that regularly measure the impact on the health care system in terms of improving, attraction and keeping skilled HWF (professionals are satisfied with their work, working environment and career paths). E.1 The HWF planning system provides guidelines on how to communicate the results to policy-makers and other stakeholders. E.2The IT forecasting tool has a “user friendly” interface which allows stakeholders an easy interaction.

13 On the road for the good practices’ selection PERFORMANCE Not just High (+) and Low (-) level but an exact value of performance for each item (score) FOCUS ON PERFORMANCEDIMENSION PERFORMANCEDIMENSION IMPORTANCE Synthesis and analysis of results: Per item Per sectionPer planning model 123

22 Methodology for good practices’ selection (1/2) ADDITIONAL CRITERIA Good performance on items placed in “improvement area” 1 Good performance on items considered very important based on Milan and Florence workshop evidences i.e. budget constraints i.e. FTE calculation 2 Good performance on specific aspect of the planning system which are useful for the implementation and the improvement 3 Unique experience on a specific and interesting aspect 4

23 Conclusion THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS WORK IS NOT TO MAKE A RANKING OF THE ANALYZED HWF PLANNING SYSTEMS THEY ALREADY REPRESENT GOOD EXPERIENCES ON HWF PLANNING THE METHODOLOGY APPLIED HAS BEEN STUDIED IN ORDER TO: - identify common strengths and weaknesses - develop a tool in order to define a prior area of intervention (improvement) - take into account all aspects to be included in a minimum planning model (implementation) THE METHODOLOGY APPLIED HAS BEEN STUDIED IN ORDER TO: - identify common strengths and weaknesses - develop a tool in order to define a prior area of intervention (improvement) - take into account all aspects to be included in a minimum planning model (implementation) THE FINAL SCOPE IS TAKING ADVANTAGE FROM THE EXPERIENCE OF SOMEONE TO GROW UP ALL TOGETHER, THANKS TO THE EXCHANGE OF THE GOOD PRACTICES
