Perceptions of dental schools from within and outside the university.

Perceptions of dental schools held by high-level administrators of their parent institutions and officials in the local community have great potential to influence the future of dental education. The intent of this investigation was to gain a preliminary knowledge of such perceptions at seven institutions in the United States and to use this information to formulate hypotheses that can provide the basis for further targeted investigations that provide evidence useful in decision making and planning processes within dental schools. Interviews with university administrators, executive directors of state dental associations, and state government officials in seven areas of the United States were conducted. The hypotheses drawn from these interviews are: 1) dental schools are generally too insular and need to interact more with their parent institutions and external community; 2) dental schools need to systematically and continually get the message of the value of their services out to the public and political constituencies; and 3) multidisciplinarity and integration with other units are important to university administrators but largely outside the concerns of those external to the university. We suggest that these hypotheses form the basis of subsequent, more targeted, follow-up investigations with the intent of formulating specific recommendations for action.

The evolution of a human services network.

The delivery of human services in most communities is complicated by competition between agencies for money, esteem, and clientele. There is a need for developing a strategy of interagency service coordination. Representatives of human service organizations in a suburban community worked together to establish a network of services emphasizing coordination and the utilization of multiple resources to meet identified program needs. The description of this project includes: (a) a discussion of the community and its special problems; (b) a specification of objectives for service coordination; (c) a presentation of the theoretical framework underlying the development of the network; (d) an analysis of the stages of development; and (e) a summary including evaluations, conclusions, and possible future directions.

Bringing palliative care to a Canadian cancer center: the palliative care program at Princess Margaret Hospital.

It is increasingly recognized that complete care of the patient with cancer includes palliative care, which is applicable early in the course of illness, in conjunction with life-prolonging treatment. Princess Margaret Hospital (PMH) is Canada's largest center for cancer care and research, and it is an international referral center for patients with cancer. The Palliative Care Program at PMH has developed into a comprehensive clinical, educational, and research program, with an acute palliative care unit, daily palliative care clinics, a cancer pain clinic, and a consultation service that sees urgent consultations on a same-day basis in inpatient and outpatient areas. We will describe the components, successes, and challenges of our program, which may be useful for others, who are developing palliative care programs in an academic setting.

Critical issues in hospital antitrust law.

Antitrust litigation involving hospitals is common. This paper describes recent developments and underlying issues in antitrust law with respect to hospital-hospital relations, hospital-physician relations, and hospital-payer relations. A key unanswered question in each of these areas is how government regulation and public purchasing affect competitive markets for hospital services.

A threatened privilege.

Because their tax-exempt status was at stake, Wisconsin hospitals joined together in 1990 to study and develop a system to better measure and quantify their provision of needed community services. The goal of a task force made up of members of the Catholic Health Association of Wisconsin (CHA-W) and the Wisconsin Hospital Association (WHA) was to develop a proactive response to potential legislative and municipal initiatives that could challenge the tax-exempt status of not-for-profit hospitals. The CHA-W/WHA Task Force on Social Accountability decided to generate data to demonstrate hospitals' tax-exempt worthiness and to show that hospitals pay for many of the direct municipal services they receive. The task force surveyed Wisconsin hospitals on the services they provide to their communities, the municipal service fees they pay, and whether any of their services compete with local businesses. The survey results showed that Wisconsin hospitals do provide needed community services. However, the hospitals do not always adequately communicate to their communities the extent of these benefits. The survey results also showed that Wisconsin hospitals pay most service fees that are quantifiable and measurable. In 1991 the task force adopted a statement of policy which emphasizes that hospitals must clearly demonstrate that they have assessed the health-care needs of their communities, implemented programs to respond to those needs, and maintained their mission to serve.
