Abstract:
The key to clinical paths administration lies in the optimization of the key processes and sectors in medical service, which will achieve an integration that is based on patients and span departments to cover all medical service sectors and processes. The clinical path practice was introduced into the hospital in 2005, and the clinical paths have been put into practice for over 20,000 cases/occasions by the end of 2009, scoring satisfactory social and economic outcomes as of now. For the purposes of speeding up the clinical path practice for expected outcomes in optimizing key medical service processes, we have got the following eight experiences and lessons: (1) Build shared demands; (2)Establish a powerful leadership; (3) Develop and promote visions; (4) Eliminate resistance and pool the forces; (5) Keep on the efforts and focus on details; (6) Reward involvements; (7) Recruit and develop key operators within the hospital; (8) Systemize and supervise the experiences of implementation.Promotion of clinical paths is a renovation in management with its inherent rules. Adoption of appropriate technical strategies and cultural strategies will upgrade the quality and acceptance of clinical path implementation.
