The World Health Organization’s Disease Outbreak News
The World Health Organization (WHO) notifies the global community about disease outbreaks through the Disease Outbreak News (DON). These online reports tell important stories about both outbreaks themselves and the high-level decision making that governs information sharing during public health emergencies. However, they have been used only minimally in global health scholarship to date. Here, we collate all 2,789 of these reports from their firs…
Hacia un sistema de acreditación de la calidad para una atención integrada y centrada en las personas en Chile

There are substantial gaps in data in the current understanding of the epidemiological patterns and trends in incidence rates of T1D at the global level. Methods We performed a scoping …

Identifying misleading corporate narratives
Narratives are key to the way corporations represent themselves to the outside world, are important to the development of shared understandings and ultimately determine whether and how corporations are able to influence societal norms and participate in policy debates. A leaked corporate affairs strategy document, from the world’s largest transnational tobacco company, Philip Morris International (PMI), suggests a company concerned about credibil…
Institutions, Policy, and Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) in Latin America
Research has underscored the agenda-setting and policy implementation advantages associated with the concentration of political and policy-making authority. But to what extent does this concentration of authority within health policy-making institutions determine the early timing and depth of non-communicable disease (NCD) policies? Are other factors within and outside of government more important? Comparing one Latin American country exhibiting …
Reclaiming comprehensive public health
Over the past 6 months, we have witnessed diversity in the spread and severity of the COVID-19 and in the nature and timing of \nresponses to it in different countries and contexts. Acute emergencies often mobilise a short spurt of attention and resources. \nCOVID-19 is, however, a protracted pandemic that spreads through and exacerbates socioeconomic inequalities and stresses health and democratic systems in a way that calls or sustained respons…
Crisis social y política en Chile
En Chile se ha producido un desarrollo económico que no ha resuelto profundas desigualdades. Hoy en día, se intenta resolver una intensa crisis política y social que irrumpe de modo explosivo en octubre de 2019 motivada por un alza del transporte público. Una década después de que se iniciara la implementación de la última reforma al sistema de salud, este sigue siendo un ámbito prioritario en la preocupación de la población y parte de las actual…

Universal Health Coverage
Universal health coverage has become a rallying cry in health policy, but it is often presented as a consensual, technical project. It is not. A review of the broader international literature on the origins of universal coverage shows that it is intrinsically political and cannot be achieved without recognition of its dependence on, and consequences for, both governance and politics. On one hand, a variety of comparative research has shown that h…
Política de autogestión hospitalaria en Chile
Conceptually, the hospital self-management policy is based on financial autonomy, and implementation is affected by persistent capacity gaps in policy design
La participación social en salud
Health care reforms implemented in Latin America and the Caribbean over the last 20 years have viewed community participation as a system-wide component. Nonetheless, these reform efforts have yet to break through the conceptual and operational barriers holding back the development and expansion of community participation. In Chile, changes introduced to the health care system are far from achieving any real participation from the community. Ther…
Autonomía en la gestión hospitalaria en Chile
En América Latina destacan experiencias de reforma sanitaria en donde se ha dado paso a la implementación de hospitales autónomos. En Chile, el sistema de salud implementa una reforma que introduce los Establecimientos de Autogestión en Red.

Los recursos humanos de salud en Chile
Omission of human resources from health policy development has been identified as a barrier in the health sector reform's adoption phase. Since 2002, Chile's health care system has been undergoing a transformation based on the principles of health as a human right, equity, solidarity, efficiency, and social participation. While the reform has set forth the redefinition of the medical professions, continuing education, scheduled accreditation, and…
