IMPLEMENTATION OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES IN HOSPITAL: AWARENESS OF THE MEDICAL SPECIALIST
Introduction. To identify the knowledge and opinion on the introduction of healthcare technologies of employees of the healthcare organization a survey was conducted between the doctors, department heads and directors of seven hospitals in Almaty. The questionnaire was used to cover their work experience in the implementation of medical technologies in their workplaces and knowledge in the field of technology assessment (HTA). The survey was followed by a structured two-stage interview with hospital managers and doctors to clarify the answers. Most of the survey participants were not aware of the process of introducing medical technologies in Kazakhstan or the basics of decision-making in the healthcare system. The participants spoke in favor of a clear process of technology implementation in their hospitals and made a useful choice regarding implementation options. The use of HTA to facilitate decision-making on new technologies has been supported, but further training of personnel is required. Difficulties were noticed in the use of HTA in hospitals in the form of a lack of funding and staff working hours. Almaty healthcare facilities face difficulties, such as managing the selection and implementation of new medical technologies. Healthcare professionals are generally aware of the evaluation of healthcare technologies, which would help them make decisions, but its implementation in everyday life requires further development consideration.
Aim: Assessment of awareness of medical specialists in the field of health technology assessment
Materials and methods: For the design of the study was used qualitative research includes mixed methods: survey and interview of stakeholders of the health organizations in Almaty. A total of 315 medical staff took part in the survey and 22 in interviews. The SPSS program was used for descriptive statistics of the received data.
Results: The survey was conducted before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Before lockdown for several questions there were many nil responses from participants and after COVID-19 respondents were able to answer a lot of questions compared to the previous survey. Responses in the survey covered the interest of hospital staff in HTA, aspects of its application and the process of introducing new technologies to their organizations.
Сonclusions: All managers and most physicians agreed that an implementation process for new technologies was necessary, given current government policies. There were differing views on outsourcing as an option for preparation of HTA reports and subsequent advice to the hospitals. A need for additional training and and accessibility of available information in the field of HTA was supported by the interviews with managers and physicians.
