The G20 Global Innovation Hub for Improving Value in Health affirms that people’s health and safety is the objective behind all decisions taken to protect souls, treat diseases, enhance global health security and mitigate the socio-economic impacts of diseases. The Center underlines the importance of improving the effectiveness of the global health systems through knowledge sharing and bridging the gap in the preparedness and ability to prevent and respond to pandemic threats.
It highlights the fears of the G20 leaders concerning the risks that the developing and least developed countries face as a result of pandemics, as their health systems and economies are less able to cope with the challenge.
It is to be noted that the Center also aims to improve the level of preparedness for pandemics, to leverage digital technologies once pandemics occurred, to focus on patient safety, and the importance of boosting value in the health systems, as well as antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
It is noteworthy that value-based healthcare could be achieved in a variety of settings. These healthcare approaches provide innovative solutions for transformation in the health systems to achieve greater sustainability and value. Such approaches also involve improving the new data tools and analytic capabilities. Some of the non-financial factors may affect the success of value-based healthcare. However, one of the main success factors is the ability to identify and measure the most important outcomes for patients and individuals.
The collaboration and knowledge transfer between organizations and countries are one of the important issues to expand the scope of value-based healthcare solutions. As the implementation of such care may have a positive impact at various levels particularly with the existence of ample opportunities for cooperation between the stakeholders, during which implementation problems will be solved.
