7. High-cost, high-need research: Comparing the patient journey in national health systems

December 17, 2021 • LSE Department of Health Policy • Season 1 • Episode 7

The way health care systems are funded, structured, and operationalised differs vastly across countries, which makes it challenging to understand how a given health care system performs compared to its neighbours.

Our guest, Dr Irene Papanicolas, argues that deriving an understanding of how health systems deliver care to vulnerable patient groups can play an important role to encourage policy transfer and mutual learning.
