THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Global. View’s. Global View 2 Regardless of today’s financial setbacks (recession, devaluation, currency flight, slowdown in demand. GDP growth swings moving from plus to minus percent, etc. ) governments must continue to provide adequate funding for meeting basic social needs and financing infrastructure building that promotes health, nutrition and education. 2 Global. View is devoting its energies to the creation of a new architecture for developing vast flows of capital to help governments provide uninterrupted universal access to these basic services regardless of how destabilized economies may become – in developing, industrial and post -industrial nations. 2 Everyone agrees with Global. View that there needs to be better information generation, information gathering, and information sharing throughout all public sectors for better decision making. Timely and appropriate information can even strengthen the global flows of trade and foreign investment. 3/15/2018 © H. C. , C. R. 4
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Global. View’s Blueprint for Change. 2 Global. View has created a blueprint of dramatic reforms in the way governments conduct their business dealings to ensure that life-saving and life-enhancing programs are not reduced or eliminated. A blueprint that shows governments how they can deploy The Global. View Network throughout their nation – immediately – without any financing required. 2 Global. View is moving toward a planetary information infrastructure for the whole global economy and all the governments and systems within it. A series of short- and intermediate-term actions that Global. View can help execute can help governments with specific problems: © H. C. , C. R. . Improvements in public procurement and public sector management. An internationally supported public procurement adjustment program. Immediate procurement supervisory and training steps for each nation. Vigorous, accelerated efforts to structure domestic / global e-commerce. Improved arrangements focusing on greater public / private coordination.

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK A Global. View Thought. 2 On our planet vast gulfs exist between one man’s (or woman’s) reality and another’s. Even so, each man is born with the yearning to make the most of his life regardless of the environment in which he lives. An individual’s state of health is often a determining factor between a life of fulfillment or a life of frustration. A life of success or a life of despair. 2 Where there’s health, there’s hope! 2 With health a person can reap benefits in their life that now would seem unattainable throughout many parts of the world. 2 With health a person’s experience can be extended providing far greater resources at their command. 2 Family relationships can show the greatest changes. 2 There can be a metamorphosis liberating many who will rise above economic and political circumstances to develop their abilities to live 3/15/2018 © H. C. , C. R. happier, more fulfilling lives. 6
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK The Information Age. 2 The transition from industrial to post-industrial societies requires even the most advanced nations to adapt their institutions and mentality to the Information Age. 2 The Information Age requires pragmatic, conceptual and philosophical solutions for coping with the problems of post-industrial society. It is not confined to the material evolution of society itself, but builds on such an evolution the appropriate political and humanitarian elements that make Information Age societies more efficient and agreeable 2 The Information Age recognizes the private sector as the engine of growth. Government interdependence, the necessity to compete, equal opportunity and mutual responsibility are all elements that have universal application. 2 Alan Greenspan, U. S. Federal Reserve Board Chairman, says higher levels of growth in the U. S. probably can be credited to productivity 3/15/2018 increases made possible through better use of information technology. © H.

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Areas That Must Be Addressed. 2 To take part in the global economy it is critical governments have in place the information and communication infrastructure that will permit their countries and people to develop successfully. Social and political development is influenced by access to affordable communications. . People must have access to telephony, computers and networks. . The access must be affordable, such that a much larger percentage of people from all strata within society are able to use these technologies. . Information must be provided in a manner that makes it easy to use and useful in that it provides real value in their work, social and political lives. . An enabling environment must be established that encourages all elements in society to engage in building an Information Society focused on meeting the needs of the people in each nation, region and worldwide. 2 World leaders must call for development of National Information Infrastructure Plans to help guide public/private entities that are active and often must collaborate. Multilateral Banks should provide technical 3/15/2018 support to facilitate national, as well as regional and global plans. © H. C. , C. R. 8
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Information. is a Product 2 Information is the product of a well-defined production process. It is a product with a life cycle. Properly managed information adds value. 2 The information-as-product approach has one clear goal: to deliver quality information to the information consumer- as a total product: . Intrinsic Information Quality - Accuracy, Objectivity, Believablility, Reputation. Accessibility Information Quality - Accessibility, Ease of Operatons, Security. Contextual Information Quality - Relevancy, Value Added, Timeliness, Completeness, Amount of Information. Representational Information Quality - Ease of Understanding, Concise and Consistent Rrepresentation, Interpretability, 2 The information-as-product approach requires the need to understand the needs of each information consumer in their different functional departments in order to design and develop standardized and controlled 3/15/2018 procedures for collecting and updating data. © H. C. , C. R. 9
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK TCP/IP - Global. View’s. Connectivity Cure-all 2 With the ubiquity of the Internet, Global. View’s goal is to move each of our world’s government information systems, their public procurement entities, and all their in-country and cross-border trading partners to TCP/IP-based connections to all applications, at all levels, in all areas. Increases “total-cost-of-ownership” savings. Eliminates redundancies. 2 Global. View’s commitment to TCP/IP and Internet-based communication strategies will provide faster access, allow common applications to run worldwide, and deliver information to information consumers around the globe or around the corner at the highest performance and lowest network costs. Intranet / Extranet / Internet / E-commerce all in one. 2 Global. View’s approach will leverage the Internet over time: © H. C. , C. R. .

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Realizing Global. View’s Vision. 2 Today’s trading partner networks are complex, redundant and costly. Individual applications and business processes often use aging, proprietary protocols. Each trading partner may require other trading partners to use specific communications methods and service providers. A common network infrastructure for all public procurement frees resources and lowers costs. Current problems are organizational. 2 Global. View’s envisions all data communications between trading partners using the TCP/IP protocol suite. This would simplify networking issues and help contain the costs associated with trading partner data communications. A single logical TCP/IP communication link that will provide users with access to all other trading partners. 2 The logical line may consist of multiple physical links to one or many service providers to supply access diversity. As more applications are offered, trading partners will be able to eliminate many of their current multiple connections, thus gaining economies of scale. The size or 3/15/2018 speed of the connection can vary to meet each trading partner’s needs. © H. C. , C. R. 11
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Primary Requirements and Pertinent Metrics. 2 The Public Internet is not the place for governments and their trading partners to conduct serious business among themselves. Global. View will provide a central overseer to certify and monitor its Internet Service Providers, assist with resolution, manage security, and provide useful information to trading partners on ISP performance and services. 2 Reliability - Trading partners must be reachable 24/365. . Primary reliability requirement is high service availability. . Pertinent metrics include physical route diversity; routing protocol convergence times; error and disaster recovery plans; backbone, exchange point and access circuit availability; replacement of failed customer premises equipment. 2 Performance - Speed and responsiveness must be constant. . Primary requirements include minimal network congestion and efficient and predictable routing. . Pertinent metrics are latency, packet cell loss, link utilization, throughput, 3/15/2018 and efficient exchange of routing information. © H. C. , C. R. 12

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Electronic Commerce Principles. 2 Using as a model the recommendations of various US and European commissions on Electronic Commerce and the Global Information Infrastructure the following principles must be taken into consideration: . Development of the Global Information Infrastructure should be led by the private sector. The rapid evolution expected in the next decade, in Electronic Commerce and the Internet, will only be possible in a marketdriven economy not in a regulated industry. This holds true for almost every issue including: telecommunications, payment methods, information technology, Internet accessibility, etc. ). Governments should provide a suitable legal environment to buy and sell products and services through the Internet. However, they should not impose unnecessary regulations, restrictions or taxes on commercial activities that take place via electronic commerce or the Internet. © H. C. , C. R. . Minimal Regulations and a simple legal environment will ensure competition, protect intellectual property and privacy, prevent fraud and support electronic transactions for this new medium in which there are no state, 3/15/2018 national or international borders. 14

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Globalization of Public Procurement. 2 The majority of current public procurement is based on traditional administrative practices and means of communication – mainly a paperbased system of notification, dissemination and tendering. 2 The Global. View Network will revolutionize the awarding of contracts. An ”electronic marketplace” in which suppliers list products and prices in electronic catalogues; contracting entities compare prices and conditions; order electronically best value items that meet their needs. 2 Electronic procurement will be more transparent, more open to dialogue with suppliers, and more efficient than paper-based systems. 2 Worldwide use of Global. View‘s Network will greatly diminish the dangers that incompatible national electronic public procurement systems could create. Major new problems of technical incompatibility among systems could make it more difficult to communicate and consequently we may not be able to reap the expected benefits of 3/15/2018 electronic public procurement. © H.

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Public Procurement Training. 2 Changing traditional procurement practices will succeed when there is a change in management ethos away from closed relationships with limited suppliers to a transparent and truly commercial environment open to other bidders and value for money is the primary motivation. 2 Training on procurement rules and best practice may well be the best and least costly way to achieve such a change. The Global. View Network will provide systematic and rigorous training for officials in order to give them the tools that effective procurement demands. 2 The Network will spread a global program of training worldwide. Steps must be taken now to stimulate the training of procurement officers in the new and evolving skills they need to better perform their new role. 2 The Network will provide tools and methods needed to improve Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) access to public and private procurement markets and to fulfill their training needs in relation to information 3/15/2018 technology and related challenges such as security and confidentiality. © H.

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Multilateral Banks (Project Procurement). 2 After a loan is approved, funds are available to implement the project and purchase the items, works and expertise needed. Implementation of the project is the responsibility of the borrower, as is procurement of goods and services. The Multilateral Development Banks are not a party to any contract, but they do require that procurement follow agreed procedures as reflected in the legal documents. These include, among others: . The criteria for packaging the contracts. The various methods of procurement that may be used. The thresholds within which those methods apply. Rules for prior and subsequent review of specifications. Bid documents. Evaluations 3/15/2018 © H. C. , C. R. 36
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Multilateral Banks (Project Procurement). 2 They carefully supervise implementation and the procurement process to ensure that procedures are followed and the process is fair and impartial. While specific procurement rules and procedures may differ depending on the type of project, the Banks have three basic concerns that govern their procurement policies: . To ensure that the loan is used to buy only those goods and services needed to carry out the project, and that they are procured in the most efficient and economical manner possible. . To give all qualified bidders from the Banks’ member countries an equal opportunity to compete for Bank-financed contracts. . To encourage development of local contractors and manufacturers in borrowing countries. 3/15/2018 © H. C. , C. R. 37
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Multilateral Banks (Project Procurement). 2 The Banks’ experience has shown that these objectives can best be achieved through an international competitive bidding process (ICB) with a margin of preference given to domestic goods and, under certain conditions, to domestic contracting services in developing countries. They have some special features and requirements that prospective bidders should note, including the following: . Public Advertising – All goods or works to be procured through ICB must be advertised internationally and in at least one major local newspaper. For large, specialized contracts, invitations should also be advertised in technical magazines, newspapers, trade publications of wide international circulation. . Currency of Bid – Bidders are entitled to bid in their own currency or other currencies in which they would incur expenditures, or in an international currency specified by the borrower in the bidding documents. © H. C. , C. R. . Payments – Successful bidders are entitled to receive payments in the currencies of their bid, thereby minimizing the bidders’ exposure to 3/15/2018 exchange rate fluctuations. Bidders in Bank-financed contracts are not required to accept any portion of their payments in countertrade. 38
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Transforming European Public Procurement. (SIMAP) 2 Quoting Mario Monti (member of the European Commission – Directorate General XV): 2 “Developing and applying an effective public procurement policy is an essential element in delivering the best possible services at the lowest cost to the public. It is also of prime importance to helping EU suppliers to compete in an increasingly competitive world procurement market. ” 2 “However, the benefits for procurement authorities, utilities, taxpayers, customers and suppliers will be more effectively secured if we can extend and improve our systems for collecting and disseminating information about contracting opportunities to potential suppliers across the Union. ” 2 “We must also continue to build confidence and commitment among suppliers and contracting entities. To do this we need to provide both purchasers and suppliers with relevant, accessible and comprehensive 3/15/2018 information in the right form and at the right time. ” © H. C. , C. R. 39

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Transforming European Public Procurement. (SIMAP) 2 At their February 1995 Summit on the Information Society the leaders of the G 7 nations decided that electronic tendering should be developed as a priority application for the new information superhighways. 2 In a few years the whole procurement process could take place electronically, from internal planning through electronic tendering to invoicing and payment, offering enormous savings in time and efficiency. 2 It is not only in the context of relations between purchasers and suppliers that change is occurring. Inside purchasing organizations, procurement practices are undergoing far-reaching re-engineering, with a view toward greater streamlining, reduction in manual procedures, significant cost savings and enhanced user friendliness at all levels of the organization.

Information on topics of previous work for other procuring entities will be easily accessible help decision-makers decide on contract awards. 2 European Commission has launched an initiative to use new electronic tools in order to make public procurement more efficient. This initiative is known as SIMAP. Two pilot projects have already been launched to demonstrate and develop tools for use in public procurement. These projects involve 75 procurement entities (from all 15 Member States) which issue a large number of procurement notices. 2 The use of a Common Procurement Vocabulary developed by the Commission, which attributes a nine digit code to some 6, 000 commonly used terms, allows tender opportunities to be translated into the EU’s eleven official languages for publication in the Official Journal of the EU and in its online equivalent TED (Tenders Electronic Daily) in 3/15/2018 accordance with the Union’s procurement legislation. © H.

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Overview of WTO Agreement on. Government Procurement 2 Procurement of products and services by government agencies for their own purposes represents an important share of total government expenditure and thus has a significant role in domestic economies. 2 While ensuring best value for money will be secured through an open and non-discriminatory procurement regime, governments sometimes seek to achieve certain other domestic policy goals through their purchasing decisions, such as promotion of local industrial sectors. 2 Measures to this effect may be either explicitly prescribed in national legislation, for example prohibitions against the purchase of foreign goods or services or from foreign suppliers, preference margins, setasides and offsets, or measures or practices which have the effect of denying foreign products, services and suppliers the opportunity to compete in domestic government procurement markets, including selective tendering, non-open technical specification requirements and, lack of transparency in tendering procedures including contract awards. 2 Such discriminatory government procurement procedures and practices 3/15/2018 © H. C. , C. R. can lead to distortions in international trade. 47
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Overview of WTO Agreement on. Government Procurement 2 Government procurement has been effectively omitted from the scope of the multilateral trade rules under the WTO, in the areas of both goods and services. In the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, originally negotiated in 1947, government procurement was explicitly excluded from the key national treatment obligation. More recently, government procurement has been carved out of main commitments of the General Agreement on Trade in Services. 2 Since it is estimated that government procurement typically represents 10 -15% of GDP, this represents a considerable gap in the multilateral trading system. 2 The trade-restrictive effects of discriminatory procurement policies and of the desirability of fulfilling these gaps in the trading system resulted in a first effort to bring government procurement under internationally agreed trade rules in the Tokyo Round of Trade Negotiations. As a result, the first Agreement on Government Procurement was signed in 1979 and entered into force in 1981. It was amended in 1987, with this 3/15/2018 amended version entering into force in 1988. © H. C. , C. R. 48
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Overview of WTO Agreement on. Government Procurement 2 The GPA establishes an agreed framework of rights and obligations among its Parties with respect to their national laws, regulations, procedures and practices in the area of government procurement. The cornerstone of the rules in the Agreement is non-discrimination. © H. C. , C. R. . Government Parties to the Agreement are required to give the products, services and suppliers of any other Party to the Agreement treatment "no less favorable" than that they give to their domestic products, services and suppliers and not to discriminate among goods, services and suppliers of other Parties. . Each Party is required to ensure that its entities do not treat one locallyestablished supplier less favorably than another locally-established supplier on the basis of degree of foreign affiliation or ownership nor discriminate on the basis of country of production of the good or service being supplied. . In order to ensure that the basic principle of non-discrimination is followed and that access to procurement is available to foreign products, services and suppliers, the Agreement lays heavy emphasis on procedures for providing transparency of laws, regulations, procedures and practices 3/15/2018 regarding government procurement. 49
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK G 7 Initiative "A Global Marketplace for. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) 2 Early in 1995 the G-7 nations launched a group of eleven initiatives that collectively aim to demonstrate the potential of the information society and stimulate its deployment. One of these initiatives, "A Global Marketplace for SMEs", has the overall objective of facilitating increased competitiveness and participation in global trade for SMEs by exploiting the opportunities offered by the development of the global information society. Electronic commerce enables companies to be more efficient and flexible in their internal operations, to work more closely with their suppliers, and to be more responsive to the needs and expectations of their customers. It allows companies to select the best suppliers regardless of their geographical location and to sell to a global market. 2 One special case of Electronic Commerce is electronic trading, in which a supplier provides goods or services to a customer in return for payment. 2 The initiative is open to participation by non-G-7 countries and 3/15/2018 international organizations. © H.

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Europe's Health Future. 2 There are wide variations between European healthcare systems but there are many shared perspectives and themes in their reform programs - because they are responding to common pressures and the possibilities offered by modern information systems. 2 The starting point for most healthcare reforms has been the concern to control escalating costs, but other objectives, such as to ensure equitable access and to improve quality of care have been major determinants of European health reforms. 2 While central measures to control cost have had an important impact, the main aim of health reforms has been to change the way decisions are made about the direction and management of health services. The aim is to create a self-regulating system, which reflects an appropriate balance between the desired level and quality of service and the resources which are affordable. 3/15/2018 © H. C. , C.

Enhancing skills of technical advisors in: collecting valid data; improving the quality of data; conducting appropriate analysis; and communicating with decision makers about technical information. Identifying and communicating with senior decision makers about program 3/15/2018 achievements and resource needs clearly and compellingly 94
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK 2. Ensuring Active Surveillance. 2 According to Health for All, a hallmark of a sustainable health system is its emphasis on active surveillance and monitoring. Global, regional, national and local surveillance, monitoring and early warning systems will alert the public to impending threats to health, thus allowing appropriate action to be taken. Enhanced linkages between local settings, national organizations and WHO will be made possible by improved information and communications technologies. Complementary mechanisms that monitor States' implementation of agreed obligations will be part of global surveillance. 2 National and local information systems for health such as The Global. View Health Network are a prerequisite for the development of effective, efficient, equitable and quality health systems. National and local monitoring, surveillance and evaluation need to provide timely information to decision-makers and the public that will facilitate evaluation and management of health systems and facilitate the best 3/15/2018 use of resources. © H. C. , C. R. 95
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK 2. Ensuring Active Surveillance. 2 An integrated system of active surveillance and monitoring for health will focus, at least, on the following areas: . Infectious diseases. Health status and trends, including birth and death rates. Implementation of international norms, standards and regulations. Progress in reducing health inequities. Performance of the essential public health functions. The impact of various lifestyles on health status. Transnational health problems and sectoral impacts on health 3/15/2018 © H. C. , C. R. 96
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK 3. Making Care Available Across the Life Span. 2 According to Health for All, a life span approach to health care acknowledges the complex and interrelated effects of many factors on the health of individuals and their children. Life span care emphasizes interventions with a preventive potential that extends from birth to death. The life span approach is based on evidence of intergenerational effects, and on linking early factors - present from before conception to childhood - with health in adolescence and later life. There are many examples of conditions and behavior whose early prevention is important for later health. 2 A life span approach to health promotion, prevention and care has the potential to limit disability and enhance the quality of life in later years. Health care settings in the twenty-first century will differ from today. A greater focus on incorporating scientific evidence into clinical practice, combined with an emphasis on quality of care, should reduce variations in diagnoses and outcomes. A wider range of care and specific services 3/15/2018 in community settings should be available directly or indirectly, such as © H. C. , C. R. through the use of communications technology. 97
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK 3. Making Care Available Across the Life Span. 2 The Global. View Health Network would provide capacities for the conversion of raw, disparate streams of patient data into uniform, actionable, comparative clinical information - one of the best ways for the world's medical community to track the effectiveness of different therapies. Also, the objectivity and inherent fairness of informatics systems provide what all health professionals crave: feedback. 2 Health care providers at all levels of the system can now look at various processes, costs and quality components of the care they deliver and the sum of these components can now be calculated to determine which clinical approaches are clearly better, more cost-effective and less risky. 2 Cutting edge databases can report how effectively patients have responded to various procedures. Monitoring and measuring medical practices and the ability to form a consensus about what tests and procedures will be allowed will translate into better health for everyone 3/15/2018 across their life span - and into Health for All. © H. C. , C. R. 98

Develop extensive networks, and coalitions with health care and social agencies to 3/15/2018 develop cooperative efforts to meet the medical needs of the underserved. 99
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK 4. Preventing and Controlling Disease. Protecting Health 2 According to Health for All, disease prevention for populations is crucial to human development. Disease prevention and disease management across the life span benefits individuals and communities. Communitybased disease prevention and health protection services benefit all, with implementation demanding minimum individual participation. Maintenance and extension of such services, where needed, should be a priority of local government. 2 The auditing of preventive actions and disease management programs can be vastly improved through the usage of The Global. View Health Network. The opportunity exists to yield improved health and a reduction of costs through these actions. The bottom line of prevention is to reduce the incidence of disease (infectious or chronic). The Network would monitor and audit the determination of incidence locally and nationally. Disease management programs offer great potential to reduce costs while improving outcomes and are great opportunities for 3/15/2018 improvement and savings. © H. C. , C. R. 10

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK 5. Fostering the Use Of, and Innovation. In Science and Technology 2 According to Health for All, closer partnerships between science and technology, between users and innovators, and between the private and public sectors will increase the chances that innovations in science will contribute to improved health worldwide through the development of technology and the implementation of research. 2 The scope of technologies for health extends from those that provide a direct benefit to health such as genetic modification, biologicals, pharmaceuticals and medical devices to those that are supportive of health system functions, such as telecommunications, information technologies, devices for environmental protection, and food technologies. 2 Communications and electronic information technologies, for instance, offer opportunities for the most remote researchers to participate fully and contribute to scientific progress. The Global. View Health Network would provide the 24/365 two-way communication needed for voice, 3/15/2018 data, video and the ability to share images of all kinds. © H. C. , C. R. 10
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK 5. Fostering the Use Of, and Innovation. In Science and Technology 2 The Network's data collection and analysis capabilities will assist governments to collaborate with various individuals, agencies, NGOs, and institutions in identifying specific health needs and finding quality, cost-effective solutions for each of them (pilot programs). This will foster community-based, primary health care services for selected age groups which are subject to frequent problems, and for specific segments of the population that receive inadequate health services. 2 This would assist governments to focus on creative health projects that involve a wide representation of community interests. The value of collecting information and analyzing data from a set of given projects lies in putting it to use by disseminating it to local officials, institutional leaders and other policy makers. Policy makers may then make better, more knowledgeable decisions about health care for people if they have information from several successful, proven projects. Information, for example, on the costs and benefits of preventive community health 3/15/2018 care for the elderly, as opposed to the costs and drawbacks of treating © H. C. , C. R. such individuals after they become ill. 10
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK 5. Fostering the Use Of, and Innovation. In Science and Technology 2 In support of WHO's Health for All, The Global. View Health Network would provide assistance that would: .

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK 6. Building and Maintaining. Human Resources for Health 2 According to Health for All, a well-trained and motivated workforce is essential for health systems to function well. The health workforce of the twenty-first century must be capable of providing quality health services based on Health for All values. A culture of health that respects and supports the right to health, ethics, equity, and gender sensitivity, and analysis in protecting and promoting public health is fundamental. 2 Global. View’s well-designed computer-based courseware provides enhanced ease of access to instructional courses and sequences. With interactive multimedia consistent, high-quality training presentations could be given at a time that is convenient for each worker’s schedule. For staff with wide ranging computer skills and training needs the courses allow users or their supervisors to customize training or “pick and choose” as needed. High demands and narrow budgets are a genuine challenge for computer-based training. As the systems mature and health providers cope with the changes in their training and 3/15/2018 educational needs, interactive multimedia will become the trainer-of© H. C. , C. R. choice in health care. 10
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK 6. Building and Maintaining. Human Resources for Health 2 In support of WHO's Health for All, The Global. View Health Network would provide assistance that would: © H. C. , C. R. . Expand human resources planning's current emphasis on medical and nursing personnel to be complemented by a cadre of people capable of working in a multidisciplinary and collaborative fashion. . Extend the boundaries of existing developmental, environmental, social, public health and medical disciplines to include members of the community who will increasingly provide care for people at home and in the community. . Constantly upgrade health worker's skills to utilize new technologies.

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK 7. Securing Adequate Financing. for Sustainable Health Systems 2 According to Health for All, government action and regulation are needed: . To secure an adequate level of financing (through public or private sources). To promote cost containment and fiscal discipline. To provide essential drug and technology lists. To ensure that national resources are utilized equitably to meet health needs. 2 Close collaboration between health, finance and planning departments in government is required to achieve these objectives. When the government is the main funder of health systems, it follows that equity of access, efficiency, and cost containment is more likely. 2 The Global. View Health Network would make it possible for health information to be recorded, collected, analyzed and acted upon with immediacy and foresight. 3/15/2018 © H. C. , C. R. 11
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK 7. Securing Adequate Financing. for Sustainable Health Systems 2 Data-based decision-making contributes to the enactment of policies and programs that allocate health resources to priority problems as supported by epidemiological and demographic data. 2 In today's health care environment, epidemiological data collection is principal to creating priorities for the delivery of care and management of finances. 2 Additionally, epidemiological data helps health care providers make educated decisions relevant to budgetary planning and long-term forecasting. 2 Future trends suggest that this form of data collection will drive much of healthcare decision making and will determine how funds are allocated. 2 Being able to monitor and respond to changing health conditions, 3/15/2018 whenever and wherever they happen, are keys to health success. © H. C. , C. R. 11
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK 7. Securing Adequate Financing. for Sustainable Health Systems 2 In support of WHO's Health for All, The Global. View Health Network would provide assistance that would: .

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Primary Health. Care System 2 The World Health Organization's Health for All Program emphasizes Primary Health Care (and Prevention) as the centerpiece of health system reform worldwide because PHC programs are more costeffective than curative programs. 2 WHO believes PHC should constitute the core of an affordable basic health package accessible to all citizens. 2 PHC prevents disease, promotes healthy lifestyles and stimulates community participation. 2 Even in developed nations, such as the United States, after decades of relative neglect in a health care system that placed most of its emphasis on specialization, high technology, and acute care medicine, the value of PHC is again being recognized as vital to the reform sweeping the U. S. health care industry. 3/15/2018 © H. C. , C. R. 11
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Primary Health. Care System 2 The Global. View Health Network’s definition of primary care is presented in terms of the function of primary care, not solely in terms of who provides it. The critical elements include: . Integrated and accessible health care services. Services provided by primary care clinicians – generally considered to be physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants – but involving a broader array of individuals in a primary care team. Accountability of clinicians and systems for quality of care, patient satisfaction, efficient use of resources, and ethical behavior. The majority of personal health care needs, which include physical, mental, emotional, and social concerns. A sustained partnership between patients and clinicians. Primary care in the context of family and community 3/15/2018 © H. C. , C. R. 11
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Primary Health. Care System 2 The Global. View Health Network’s road map for reaching its goals are reflected in five assumptions: . Primary care is the logical foundation of an effective health care system because primary care can address the large majority of the health problems present in a population. . Primary care is essential to achieving the objectives that together constitute value in health care / quality of care (including achievement of desired health outcomes), patient satisfaction, and efficient resource use. . Personal interactions that include trust and partnership between patients and clinicians are central to primary care. . Primary care is an important instrument for achieving stronger emphasis on (a) health promotion and disease prevention and (b) care of the chronically ill, especially among the elderly with multiple problems. . The trend toward integrated health care systems in a managed care environment will provide opportunities/challenges for primary care. 3/15/2018 © H. C. , C. R. 11
THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Primary Health. Care System 2 To bring this PHC vision closer to reality, The Global. View Health Network intends to address the opportunities for and challenges of reorienting primary health care in our world: . Give a clear definition of the function of primary care that can guide public and private actions to improve health care. . Encourage certain organizational arrangements for health care, built on a foundation of strong primary care that will facilitate the coordination of the full array of services essential for maintaining and improving patient health status. . Argue for development and dissemination of improved information systems and quality assurance programs for primary care. .

THE GLOBALVIEW NETWORK Primary Health Care Steering Group. 2 The Global. View Health Network envisions a Best Practice Primary Health Care System that can be customized for integration into any of our world's national health systems – electronically supported by The Global. View Health Network. Coordinated implementation by many participants over time is unlikely to take place unless an entity exists whose purposes are to build appropriate coalitions, stimulate action, and monitor and facilitate implementation. 2 The Global. View Health Network suggests the formation of a Primary Health Care Steering Group to coordinate efforts to promote and enhance primary care, conduct research and development projects, provide technical assistance, disseminate information on primary care infrastructure, innovative models of primary care, and methods to monitor primary care performance. Important parts of the Health for All agenda require government action, but for many elements the key decision makers are to be found in in health care plans, in educational 3/15/2018 institutions, in professions, and in private foundations and NGOs. Many © H. C. , C. R. of these are committed to a renewed emphasis on primary care. 11
