“…Citizens' legal rights, say, to sue for negligence may be unenforceable. These problems may not be relieved entirely by independent regulation to protect consumer interests, as has been suggested (Duckett & Swerissen 1996). For a parallel case regarding employment services, see the Commonwealth Ombudsman's submission to Senate 1998-9; Moyle cited in Crossland (1999), and Alford & Gullo (2000).…”

In 1999 the Victorian primary care and community support system began a process of substantial reform, involving purchasing reforms and a contested selection process between providers in large catchment areas across the State. The Liberal Government's electoral defeat in September 1999 led to a review of these reforms. This paper questions the reforms from a rural perspective. They were based on a generic template that did not consider rural-urban differences in health needs or other differences including socio-economic status, and may have reinforced if not aggravated rural-urban differences in the quality of and access to primary health care in Victoria.

[29][30][31][32] Funding mechanisms should be linked to performance benchmarks to further encourage and reward the success of workforce initiatives.…”

We administered an electronic survey in OctoberNovember 2006 to gauge stakeholder perspectives on Australia's recently adopted health workforce policies. Nearly all of the 41 survey respondents (65% response rate) ranked workforce as very important to overall health policy. Respondents identified decreasing health disparities and rates of disease and mortality as top goals, and identified improved quality and safety and more professionals in rural areas as priority measures for success. Lack of coordination between the governments and insufficient long-range planning were seen as threats to the success of the new workforce initiatives. The survey results suggest the need for clear goals and measurable outcomes. Although they represented different organisations and perspectives, the health workforce policy opinion leaders that participated in this survey reflected remarkable commonality in goals, measures, alternatives, and

“…Hvis vi skiller mellom begrepene output og outcome (Duckett & Swerissen, 1996), hvor output dreier seg om tjenestene, mens outcome er hva slags resultater eller betydning for den enkelte bruker som tjenestene medfører (livssituasjonen), ser vi tydelig at samproduksjonsperspektivet er orientert mot outcome. Her skiller perspektivet seg fra konsumenttenkninga som er outputorientert, mens det er sammenfall med rettighetsdiskursen som også er outcomeorientert.…”

Brukermedvirkning som innflytelse og deltakelse– en studie av omsorgslederes vurderinger

Brukermedvirkning som samproduksjon har blitt et mer sentralt perspektiv de senere åra i den offisielle omsorgspolitikken. Denne artikkelen retter søkelyset mot lederes forståelser av brukermedvirkning innen kommunale omsorgstjenester. Det empiriske grunnlaget er intervjuer med omsorgsledere på ulike nivåer og tjenesteområder i fem kommuner. Lederne vektla en individuell tilnaerming der brukerne bør ha innflytelse både ved utforminga av tjenestetilbudet og ved sjølve tjenesteutførelsen. De hadde også en forventning om at brukerne skal vaere deltakende, aktive og benytte sine ressurser. Denne forventningen vil kunne skape spenninger mellom brukerne og fagpersonalet. I slike situasjoner blir styring ifølge lederne utøvd gjennom dialog, veiledning eller ulike former for motivering. Vi finner igjen sentrale elementer fra samproduksjonsperspektivet i omsorgsledernes vurderinger uten at de benytter samproduksjon som begrep.
