Virtual Care and the Inverse Care Law: Implications for Policy, Practice, Research, Public and Patients
Virtual care spread rapidly at the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Restricting in-person contact contributed to reducing the spread of infection and saved lives. However, the benefits of virtual care were not evenly distributed within and across social groups, and existing inequalities became exacerbated for those unable to fully access to, or benefit from virtual services. This "perspective" paper discusses the extent to which challenges in v…
How Can Health Systems Better Prepare for the Next Pandemic? Lessons Learned From the Management of Covid-19 in Quebec (Canada)
The magnitude of the COVID-19 pandemic challenged societies around our globalized world. To contain the spread of the virus, unprecedented and drastic measures and policies were put in place by governments to manage an exceptional health care situation while maintaining other essential services. The responses of many governments showed a lack of preparedness to face this systemic and global health crisis. Drawing on field observations and availab…
Artificial intelligence in health care: Laying the Foundation for Responsible, sustainable, and inclusive innovation in low- and middle-income countries
The World Health Organization and other institutions are considering Artificial Intelligence (AI) as a technology that can potentially address some health system gaps, especially the reduction of global health inequalities in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). However, because most AI-based health applications are developed and implemented in high-income countries, their use in LMICs contexts is recent and there is a lack of robust local e…
L’influence de l’évaluation sur les suites des projets d’expérimentation: L’exemple des projets d’informatisation au Québec
The dissemination and sustainability of many health-care IT projects in Quebec have hardly been influenced by their evaluation, even when the evaluation was participative, pluralist, comprehensive, formative, and user-focussed. This article aims to improve our understanding of why that has been the case and to suggest courses of action and reflection. Human and organizational factors and other factors related to the evaluation itself are consider…
La naissance du réseau québécois de Villes et de villages en santé
La naissance au Québec en 1987 d'un réseau de «Villes et villages en santé» (V.V.S.) est d'abord placée dans le contexte du mouvement international «Healthy Cities» lancé, un an plus tôt, par l'Organisation mondiale de la santé comme l'un de ses récents projets de promotion de la santé. Une entrevue avec les dirigeants des premières villes québécoises à s'engager dans cette voie permet de situer les acteurs et de dégager les enjeux et les stratég…
Le système de santé québécois. Un modèle en transformation
Le système de santé que l'État québécois avait mis en place à la fin des années 1960 n'est plus ce qu'il était. Et l'on ne sait trop à quoi il ressemblera au XXIe siècle quand s'achèvera sa réforme. Ce second ouvrage du Réseau de recherche sociopolitique et organisationnelle en santé ne cherche pas à dresser un bilan des changements en cours, il veut plutôt soulever un certain nombre d'interrogations qui concernent tous les acteurs du système, se…
