The Three Factors Crucial to Effectiveness in Healthcare

The Three Factors Crucial to Effectiveness in Healthcare

1 June, 15:00–16:15

A clear goal has been set for the Russian healthcare system: extend life expectancy to 76 years by 2025. All three dimensions of healthcare, i.e., preventive care, medical treatment, and administration, should serve this end. Success will depend on coordinated efforts by all stakeholders: healthcare executives, regional authorities, representatives of the medical and pharmaceutical industries, scientific and educational communities, doctors, and the population itself. What are the key priorities of the Russian healthcare development strategy for the period to 2025? How should people be motivated to lead a healthier lifestyle, and how should business be incentivized to take care of the health of its employees? What is the formula for efficient healthcare management? What improvements should be made in medical education? What are the best private investment opportunities in healthcare?

Without investments, there is no way to have a truly healthy population. If the Russian Federation invests for ten years in making universal access to ten therapeutic areas, we will see a 10% reduction in mortality.

Today, the issue of providing specialized emergency aid has not been entirely resolved. A huge reserve lies in constructing a logistically effective functioning system that will, when required, without interim hospitalization, take a patient to the requisite facility where they may be effectively treated.

We have never considered healthcare as an isolated sector; we connect it to education, sports, culture, and we try to educate people on a spiritual and moral basis.

Besides working actively in all areas on developing the healthcare system through the efforts of the authorities, each person’s motivation and responsibility for their health is of utmost importance for us.

I estimate that, overall, about 75% of the rise in life expectancy worldwide has been due to biomedical innovation in general and pharmaceutical innovation in particular.

There is a lot of value that we can bring with digital. It will bring a lot of changes to the system. It will help patients gain access to their own data; help professionals to navigate tons of data; it will help providers run clinics more efficiently and, ultimately, it well help the payer, because the system will be more efficient and less expensive.

Without disease prevention and without emphasis on a healthy lifestyle, we will never get things moving. And here we have supported the Ministry of Healthcare, which has developed a healthy lifestyle strategy, and small, medium, and big enterprises are already investing in sports development, in setting up healthy food services for their employees.
