Uncovering the mechanisms of policy change
Background: Health systems worldwide are focused on strengthening primary care, improving quality and access to regular primary care providers and care teams, and integrating primary care with the rest of the health system. This workshop aims to share findings from an international comparative health policy research network comprised of high and middle-income countries across four world regions and to stimulate dialogue and lesson sharing on the …
Qualitative study of the funding models in joint health and social care services focused on diverse populations in Sydney
Background: A unified funding system is critical step in enhancing integrated health and social care in fragmented systems. It has been demonstrated policies that support joint access to and responsibility for funding increases participation in integrated care. However, knowledge regarding the type of funding systems employed in integrated health and social care initiatives is usually scarce, underreported, and are rarely well described at progra…
Data sharing in health and social care in Australia
Background: There is a growing international dialogue surrounding improving public services by shifting to an integrated health and social care approach. A key aspects of advancing integrated care is to share assessments, diagnostics and care plans, between health and social care systems. Shared records can improve the continuum of care, and care coordination while enhancing a patient centred-approach. This study seeks to understand data-sharing …
Local implementation of integrated care reforms
Background: Most public health systems necessarily entail a division of responsibility between central and local authorities – with the relationship between levels defined through a combination of hierarchical, contractual and financial structures. The implementation of new policies and initiatives are increasingly devolved to local levels for adaption and implementation; but set within boundaries of broader central policy. Collaborative Commissi…
Financing food environments
This article explores the intersection of financialization and the commercial determinants of health (CDoH), with a focus on Australian food systems. While existing research highlights the food industry’s role in shaping dietary patterns and health outcomes, the financial sector’s influence on food systems governance remains underexamined. By investigating key actors in food systems investment policy and practice and the types of power they wield…
Innovative Policy Supports for Integration in Health and Social Care Focused on Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Populations in Australia
The fragmented nature of Australian health and social care systems present a barrier to integrated care. Culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities are recognised as a priority population with unmet health and social needs. This study describes policy supports for programs that promote health and social care integration with a CALD focus, including governance and partnerships; workforce and staffing; funding and payment; and data sh…
Where is the ‘theory’ in theory of change? Analysing four local theories of change in a systemwide integrated care initiative
Background and context: Theory of change is a structured participatory process that articulates how and why an intervention is assumed to work. Theories of change are often ‘atheoretical’, in that they reflect a bottom-up approach to understanding how a program works, and seldom systematically integrate knowledge of theoretical frameworks and empirical evidence. This means that a key component of the theory of change approach, that of knowledge g…
A Comparative Policy Analysis of Health and Social Care Integration in Australia
This study aims to identify the emergence and key features of concepts of 'integrated care' and its extension to 'social care' in Australian health policy. Poor social outcomes and poor health outcomes are linked, and we understand that as social determinants of health improve for patients, so does their health. Efforts to integrated health and social care in Australia have largely been limited to local models and innovator sites and a system wid…
Telling the story of Integrated Care in New South Wales
Problem and Aim: Like many regions around the world, local health systems in New South Wales, including the Ministry of Health, Local Health Districts Primary Health Networks and social and community partners, have implemented integrated care initiatives to bridge gaps in health, social and community services and deliver person-centred connected care. Over the past 25 years, these initiatives have involved a wide range of goals, locations, fundin…
Protecting children from unhealthy food marketing
Restrictions on marketing of unhealthy foods and beverages to children is a globally recommended policy measure to improve diets and health. The aim of the analysis was to identify opportunities to enable policy learning and shift beliefs of relevant actors, to engender policy progress on restrictions on marketing of unhealthy foods to children. We drew on the Advocacy Coalition Framework to thematically analyse data from qualitative policy inter…
Determinants and health outcomes of trajectories of social mobility in Australia
Decreasing SEP was associated with poor health outcomes, and increasing SEP with better health outcomes. A range of socio-demographic and psychosocial determinants of SEP trajectories were identified to inform policy responses that could modify trajectories of health inequalities in the Australian context
Primary school mobile dental program in New South Wales, Australia
The use of EDRs for oral health services evaluation research is a relatively new approach, and the evaluation works within the limitations and strengths of utilising administrative datasets. The study will also provide avenues to improve the quality of data collected and system-level improvements to better enable future services to be aligned with disease prevalence and population needs
Context and priorities for health systems strengthening for pain and disability in low- and middle-income countries
Musculoskeletal (MSK) health impairments contribute substantially to the pain and disability burden in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), yet health systems strengthening (HSS) responses are nascent in these settings. We aimed to explore the contemporary context, framed as challenges and opportunities, for improving population-level prevention and management of MSK health in LMICs using secondary qualitative data from a previous study expl…
Integrated health and social care with a Cald focus
Background: Underrepresented and underserved communities such as culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) groups experience higher reported prevalence and severity of multimorbidity along with unmet social needs and disadvantages in accessing services. Minority populations report higher rates of emergency department presentations globally and nationally and it is understood that services are more frequently accessed on consumer initiative whe…
Innovating Health Governance in Australian Integrated Care
Background: Australia is one of many countries implementing integrated care initiatives to facilitate the Quadruple Aim (the improvement of health outcomes, patient experience, provider experience and health system sustainability). These initiatives can be complex while working within a fragmented and siloed health system. NSW Health has created the Patient Centred Collaborative Commissioning Groups (PCCGs) program facilitating Local Health Distr…
Moving from silos to synergies
BACKGROUND: Governance processes play an important role in shaping the formulation and implementation of policy measures such as restrictions on marketing of ultra-processed foods. However, there is limited analysis of the factors that affect governance for nutrition, especially in low- and middle-income countries such as Thailand and the Southeast Asia region. This study aimed to examine governance factors that create opportunities and challenge…
Towards reconciling population nutrition goals and investment policy in Thailand
BACKGROUND: Government's investment policy is an important driver of food system activities, which in turn influence consumers practices, dietary consumption patterns and nutrition-related health of populations. While governments globally have committed to developing coherent public policies to advance population nutrition, the objectives of investment policies are seen as being divorced from nutrition and health goals. This study aimed to examin…
How policy actors assert authority in the governance of food marketing policies
Discursive framing in policies for restricting the marketing of food and non-alcoholic beverages
Health system governance and the UHC agenda
Immediately prior to the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 and the ensuing global COVID-19 pandemic, global health policy experienced a peak in political attention for Universal Health Coverage (UHC) as a key paradigm to strengthen health systems and achieve global health. As a set of health policy goals, UHC emphasises the responsibility of governments to enable broad equitable access to quality health services and strengthen the health system pillars tha…
Health systems strengthening to arrest the global disability burden
INTRODUCTION: Despite the profound burden of disease, a strategic global response to optimise musculoskeletal (MSK) health and guide national-level health systems strengthening priorities remains absent. Auspiced by the Global Alliance for Musculoskeletal Health (G-MUSC), we aimed to empirically derive requisite priorities and components of a strategic response to guide global and national-level action on MSK health. METHODS: Design: mixed-method…
Recognizing the roles of primary health care in addressing non-communicable diseases in low- and middle-income countries
Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality, are key challenges to achieving the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. Looking at trends over the years, the surge in NCDs is anticipated to continue, with the greatest impact on the poor and marginalized groups, mainly from low and middle-income countries (LMICs) [1]. During the COVID-19 pandemic, people with one or more underlying NCDs were particularly vulner…
Increasing the public health voice in global decision-making on nutrition labelling
To respond to the global noncommunicable disease (NCD) crisis, the Codex Alimentarius Commission (Codex), a multilateral United Nations body responsible for work on food standards, is developing global guidance for front of pack (FoP) nutrition labelling. Guidance from Codex regarding FoP nutrition labelling at the global level will almost certainly influence national policy making. This shift in Codex’s activities towards standards to address NC…
The Global Burden of Musculoskeletal Pain—Where to From Here
To summarize the current understanding of the global burden of musculoskeletal pain–related conditions, consider the process of evidence generation and the steps to generate global pain estimates, identify key gaps in our understanding, and propose an agenda to address these gaps, we performed a narrative review. In the 2010 Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD), which broadened the scope of musculoskeletal conditions that were included over previ…
The for-profit sector in humanitarian response
The engagement of the for-profit private sector in health, social and humanitarian services has become a topic of keen interest. It is particularly contentious in those instances where for-profit organizations have become recipients of public funds, and where they become key decision-makers in terms of how, and to whom, services are provided. We put forward a framework for identifying and organizing the ethical questions to be considered when con…
