Decision-making methods on expediency of introduction of innovations in treatment and diagnostic process
Abstract
The fact that each management solution is made with the lack of information defines the risk of making a wrong decision. Such decisions made by competent specialists in individual agencies as well as networks of health authorities can produce a strong effect on lives and health of patients. It explains the increasing topicality for defining methods and means of making reasonable decisions. In the article based on the analysis of normative documents, scientific and methodical literatures, with the interaction of experts in health services, such methods and means are described, analyzed and systemized. The research showed that using of each alternative (analysis of regulatory documents, expert survey, clinical and economic analysis) has its own advantages and disadvantages. And it depends on the case which method will be the most reasonable to use.
