Public reporting, Transparency and Accountability
Publically available information is essential for achieving the best outcomes and value in the healthcare sector.
We believe that publically available information is essential for achieving the best outcomes and value in the healthcare sector. We will review the current state of public reporting in the healthcare sector. We will discuss how to make information more transparent, timely, reliable, and useful for us as patients, consumers and citizens.
Citizens4health effort is build on the following beliefs:
Transparency and accountability are crucial to both democracy and the healthcare market sector
By working together, as citizens and healthcare stakeholders, we can have the best healthcare system in the world.
People need to engage in the healthcare system as citizens, not just as patients and consumers.
Public reporting is an essential component of any meaningful change to our healthcare system.
Personal opinions and political beliefs should not obscure facts and statistics about our healthcare system.
Every hospital must be a top hospital, providing safe care and optimal outcomes.
