System to be implemented for all DHA hospitals, primary health care centres and speciality clinics to ensure delivery of effective, high quality patient care.
Dubai, United Arab Emirates, 22 June, 2015: The Dubai Health Authority(DHA) has formed a supervisory committee for the cost calculation system project.
His Excellency Humaid Mohammed Obaid Al Qatami, chairman of the board of the DHA said that the aim of the committee is to utilise the latest concepts and methods to understand the real costs of delivering care across the DHA so that the DHA can maximize the use of its resources to deliver the best quality of care possible.
The ten member committee is chaired by Jassim Al Awadhi, CEO of Shared Support Services Sector at the DHA.
The system will be implemented for all DHA hospitals, primary health care centres and speciality clinics to ensure delivery of effective, high quality patient care. The cost calculation system combines financial information with patient activity data to apportion income and costs to patient level. This will provide DHA with the ability to produce service line reports as well patient level analysis reports. By understanding what drives the costs of care at the patient level, provides the DHA with information available to help manage services in a cost efficient manner and further improve the performance of the various departments within the DHA
The committee will provide detailed reports with regard to progress, identify obstacles and challenges and propose appropriate solutions to ensure the project is completed on time.
