WHO report on global health worker mobility by World Health Organization Pdf

The report presents two key indicators of estimating health worker mobility as reported by destination countries – the share of the foreign-trained and/or foreign-born health workers. The results presented in this report formulate new thinking around the interlinkages of monitoring Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Indicator 3.c.1 on health worker density and distribution and health worker mobility and migration. This report provides the most comprehensive compendium of data on health workforce migration ever published, with data from 134 countries, areas and territories, covering all six WHO regions. This report stipulates [highlights/emphasizes?] the importance of accurately measuring and monitoring health worker mobility – as a lever of influence – in designing, implementing and assessing remedial policies aimed at addressing skills imbalances and future health systems performance development.

Health Professional Mobility and Health Systems by Matthias Wismar Pdf

The mobility of health professionals affects the performance of health systems, and increasingly so since the European Union (EU) enlargements in 2004 and 2007. This publication presents research on the gaps in knowledge about the numbers, trends, impacts and policy responses to this dynamic situation, in particular in Austria, Belgium, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Turkey and the United Kingdom. Conducted within the framework of the European Commission s Health PROMeTHEUS project, the research posed a set of questions of key interest to policy-makers: * What are the scale and characteristics of health professional mobility in the EU? * What have been the effects of EU enlargement? * What are the motivations of the mobile workforce? * What are the resulting impacts on health system performance? * What is the policy relevance of those impacts? * What are the policy options to address health professional mobility issues? In answering these questions, this publication offers policymakers evidence of the nature and extent of health professional mobility in the EU, analyzes its impact on country health systems and outlines some major policy strategies to address mobility.

Recent Trends in International Migration of Doctors, Nurses and Medical Students by OECD Pdf

This report describes recent trends in the international migration of doctors and nurses in OECD countries. Over the past decade, the number of doctors and nurses has increased in many OECD countries, and foreign-born and foreign-trained doctors and nurses have contributed to a significant extent. New in-depth analysis of the internationalisation of medical education shows that in some countries (e.g. Israel, Norway, Sweden and the United States) a large and growing number of foreign-trained doctors are people born in these countries who obtained their first medical degree abroad before coming back. The report includes four case studies on the internationalisation of medical education in Europe (France, Ireland, Poland and Romania) as well as a case study on the integration of foreign-trained doctors in Canada.

Health Care Provision and Patient Mobility by Rosella Levaggi,Marcello Montefiori Pdf

Patient mobility across Europe is markedly increasing and new generations will actively ask to be treated by the health-care system that best meets their needs. At a political level, the EU issued the EU Directive no. 24/2011/CE of 9th March 2011 concerning the application of patients’ rights in cross-border health care and has contributed to improving the level of freedom of choice for the European citizen, but it does not seem to have increased actual patient mobility across Europe. Freedom to choose is necessary to grant the people of Europe the same access to public-sector health-care services. The latter is a key instrument for an efficiently functioning “single market” ensuring real mobility within the EU. The aim of this book is to study the current European health care market and discuss the hypothesis of a European right of citizenship with reference to health-care services. It examines patients' mobility from several perspectives: determinants of patient mobility, governance of cross-border mobility at EU level as concerns patients and health-care professionals, policy implications, and case studies. It is intended for health researchers, decision-makers and professionals concerned with health-care provision and patient mobility. The goal is to provide, through scientific and methodological rigor, new informative tools useful for the implementation of new policies in the health-care sector in order to implement effective health-care integration in the European Union.

How Can Countries Address the Efficiency and Equity Implications of Health Professional Mobility in Europe? by Irene Ariadne Glinos,Matthias Wismar,James Buchan,Ivo Rakovac Pdf

Health workers in the European Union (EU) are free to seek employment in another Member State as guaranteed by EU law. This mobility of health professionals changes the composition of the health workforce in source and destination countries and may aggravate or mitigate existing problems such as shortages, mal-distribution and skill-mismatches of health professionals. To mitigate unwanted effects and strengthen positive ones, the Member States of the World Health Organization have adopted the Global Code of Practice on the International Recruitment of Health Personnel. The Code, however, needs to be contextualized for Europe, taking into account the freedom of movement in the EU. Mitigating unwanted effects and strengthening positive ones is highly relevant in the EU as some Member States rely to a large extent on foreign health professionals while others experience important outflows. In the EU free mobility area, flows of health professionals are dynamic, often changing direction and magnitude, and affect all countries. Countries are faced with the constantly changing conundrum of efficiency and equity, that is, between the free mobility of health professionals in the European labour market on one hand, and the planning requirements of health systems ensuring universal health coverage on the other hand. It is necessary to disentangle the conundrum and make it accessible to policy-makers and stakeholders as health professional mobility: has clear effects on efficiency and equity; is a complex phenomenon, neither positive nor negative per se, but implying merits and drawbacks for both source and destination countries; and affects the EU as a whole and destination and source countries simultaneously. Three sets of policy options can be used to address the consequences of health professional mobility on efficiency and equity at EU and country level: policy options to foster health workforce sustainability; policy options to manage mobility; and EU action to address the consequences and opportunities of free mobility. Countries can choose from a wide range of policy options that correspond best with their needs (Table 2). Implementing policy options will often require strong intersectoral governance and consensus building across government departments and stakeholders.

Medicine, Mobility, and Power in Global Africa by Hansjörg Dilger,Abdoulaye Kane,Stacey Ann Langwick Pdf

Recent political, social, and economic changes in Africa have provoked radical shifts in the landscape of health and healthcare. Medicine, Mobility, and Power in Global Africa captures the multiple dynamics of a globalized world and its impact on medicine, health, and the delivery of healthcare in Africa—and beyond. Essays by an international group of contributors take on intractable problems such as HIV/AIDS, malaria, and insufficient access to healthcare, drugs, resources, hospitals, and technologies. The movements of people and resources described here expose the growing challenges of poverty and public health, but they also show how new opportunities have been created for transforming healthcare and promoting care and healing.
