  5. PRINCIPLES OF THE PROGRAMME • The focus is on the patient: the comments and level of satisfaction of patients • Safety of care: safety is one of the major dimensions of quality of care, and one of the main expectations of patients. • Continuous quality improvement: quality management system • Involvement of professionals working in the health care organisation : It is essential that everyone participate in such initiatives, so that they will accept changes and adopt appropriate solutions. • Continuous assessment and improvement of the assessment process: research on indicators providing proof of principle

  6. The OECI Accreditation Working Group Need for Members • involved in everyday specialised patient care • participating in medical care and research, in healthcare institutions management • researchers from national agencies involved in Healthcare assessment or insurance. • involvement of patient groups • Support from professional cancer societies

  7.

Accreditation system : What is needed ? • Standards and criteria for quality multidisciplinary cancer care delivered in cancer centres throughout Europe, • A process allowing to survey the cancer centres in order to assess compliance with those standards, • A tool to collect standardised and quality data from approved cancer centres, to measure treatments patterns and outcomes.

  11. Recent Progress

  12. OECI Accreditation Tool now ready to use ! Standards and criteria (qualitative questionnaire) + scoring system based on compliance level + Quantitative questions Translated into an electronic manual Electronic OECI accreditation tool (Web-based)

Tool Validation of tool / Acceptance Dissemination to OECI Centres Definition of Catgories of Cancer Structures Designation Project Validation through quality indicators Link quality to outcome / Benchmark

  23. Collaboration : A Necessity for improvement • Quality standards/criteria must be approved by consumers and providers (patients and health authorities) • Quality standards/criteria must be approved by professionals (professional societies and peers) • The process must be disseminated in cancer structures at national level and all over Europe • Harmonisation and integration is the key: overlapping and duplication should be avoided An integrated and open approach is the leading principle

  24. EXTERNAL DEVELOPMENTS EU recognition In depth Professional Accreditation Links with Funders OECI Accreditation Patients Information Public Reporting Driving Industrial strategy In depth Tumour Specific Accreditation International Links (US, Canada) National Application inform the authorities, public and the patients facilitate the sharing of expertise

  25. Long-term Impact • Improved care to individuals • Strengthened community confidence in the quality of continuous care in the hospital • Healthcare professional education on standards of high quality care • Stimulation of quality improvement efforts if the accreditation recommendations are implemented after the accreditation process • Objective evaluation of the hospital’s quality of care

  26. Long-term Impact • Potential for improved liability insurance coverage • Comparative assessment of care structures • Provision of a more coherent overall vision with a clear evidence base • Report provided to the public • More harmonisation and equity for patients

  27. Patients Health Authorities A c c r e d i t a t i o n Cancer Centres Cancer Care / Research Professionals and Organisations (Research) Funders (Industry) OECI Accreditation Programme A new alliance between the Cancer Institutes and their partners in the continuous progress and search for excellence of research and care in oncology
