Robotic Surgical System Adoption and Radical Prostatectomy Volume in Japan: A Nationwide Hospital-Level Longitudinal Difference-in-Differences Study
Background Robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) has become the dominant approach for prostate cancer surgery, replacing open and laparoscopic procedures. However, whether the introduction of robotic surgical systems has increased the overall number of radical prostatectomies (RPs) remains unclear, particularly within social health insurance systems. Methods We conducted a nationwide longitudinal observational study using hospital-level data from Japan between 2016 and 2023.
Virtual Interconsultations for Primary Care Referrals to Rheumatology: Real-World Implementation and Societal Cost-Avoidance Analysis in a Public Health System
Background Rising demand for rheumatology care strains referral pathways between primary care and specialist services. We evaluated whether a virtual interconsultation (VIC) program, an asynchronous e-consult system integrated into the electronic health record (EHR), improved referral efficiency for new patients and generated net societal cost savings in a public health system.
Barriers and Enablers for Implementing Health Navigators in Paediatric and Adolescent Oncology in Chile: Local Insights From a Qualitative Study
Background Childhood cancer poses significant public health challenges globally, with survival disparities between high-income countries (HICs) and low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). In response, the World Health Organization (WHO) launched the CureAll initiative to strengthen childhood cancer care.
Trends in Low-Value Care Following a Payer-Initiated Audit and Feedback Intervention: A Retrospective Analysis in Hospitals With Varying Payment Models
Background Reducing low-value care (LVC) remains a significant challenge in healthcare systems, despite efforts for de-implementation. To facilitate de-implementation payers may use provider Audit & Feedback (A&F). This study aims to examine trends in LVC following a payer-initiated A&F program, and to explore whether this association varies across hospital payment models.
