How well did Czechia’s health care system survive Covid? What do its leading practitioners and experts think of its current state? What immediate solutions and long term goals would improve their ability to serve citizens? When you ask politicians about health care, you tend to get answers at the two ends of the spectrum. If their party is in power, everything is great. If their party is out of power, everything sucks. The answer, of course, is somewhere in the middle. But where? And what would it take to inch health care closer to perfection? AmCham CZ ‘s Health Care Council, led by Michala Malat of Johnson & Johnson and Vaclav Novotny of Aspironix, recently gathered experts representing a cross-section of the health care market and asked them to answer those questions. As expected, Pavel Hrobon of the Advanced Health Care Institute delivered different advice than David Kolář of AIFP. Miroslav Palat of CzechMed had different immediate priorities than Antonín Hlavinka of Olomouc Hospital, Michal Šnorek of Ceske Budejovice’s hospital,, or Martina Sochmanova of the nursing association. From his vantage point as a doctor, Martin Balik suggested different long term goals than Jitka Vojtova, who assesses health care through insuring patients. And Edita Mullerova sees all of this with the eyes of the patients she represents. Nevertheless, we could see some clear threads that tied the discussion together. The first is a desire, and determination, to provide better quality care more effectively. The second is a willingness to listen to different perspectives, to learn from them, and to figure a way to align interests and aims. AmCham is now stitching together a summary of the session, including a list of priorities, to share with policymakers in the government and parliament. Our aim is to build working coalitions to address these priorities, and to make Czech health care a competitive advantage for citizens and companies. Thanks also to Pavel Sedláček of Pfizer and Karin Bacmanakova of Bristol Myers Squibb for helping us put some order to the discussion, and to Jaroslav Skvrna and Pavel Nevicky of Deloitte for giving a place to meet and a opening framework for the debate. #HealthCare #digitization

This kind of positive feedback from future #mediaandtech leaders is a strong testament to Poland's growing attractiveness and to our RASP work culture ;) 🤩 And the good news doesn't stop there! Poland's economy is booming: ▶️ The Polish economy is on track for 2.8% growth in 2024, nearly triple the EU average! ▶️ This surge is driven by strong domestic consumption, fueled by rising wages and falling inflation. ▶️ Fresh EU funds are also contributing, despite ongoing judicial reforms. ▶️ The government is heavily investing in infrastructure projects like roads, railways, and ports, creating jobs and boosting activity. ️ ▶️ German exports to Poland are thriving, particularly in the automotive sector. 🇩🇪🇵🇱 ▶️ The new Ministry of Industry is driving a low-carbon future with investments in renewables and nuclear power. ♻️⚛️ ▶️ The strong Polish-German relationship is further strengthened by rapidly growing trade.

The European Parliament has concluded that low turnout at next month’s European elections will benefit anti-European populists, so efforts need to be made to encourage people to get out and vote – particularly younger voters, who, it is thought, are much more likely to vote for pro-European, non-populist parties. We explore below whether those conclusions are correct in CEE, and whether there is any evidence that the campaign is working. 👇

#healthsystems >> 📊 Progress of Poland in developing its cancer care system 🏥 Cancer is the second leading cause of death in Poland. Although the incidence of cancer is low in comparison to other European countries, mortality and survival ratios are worse than Europe’s average.83 Overall cancer mortality was 15% higher than the EU average of 247 / 100,000 in 2019, despite incidence rates that were 5% and 3% lower than the EU for men and women respectively. Poland’s health system is based on universal social health insurance that covers almost all residents. Recent reforms have focused on improving organization of care for key health problems such as cancer. Presently, the country fully reimburses over 60% of novel oncology therapies, and the National Health Fund supports the use of more than 100 authorized novel agents. 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 🩺 There are screening programs for breast, cervical, and colorectal cancers, but the participation of target groups is low, at 16%, 20%, and 40% respectively.87 Poland was the second country in Europe to implement a nationwide screening program for lung cancer, doing so in 2020. A population-based cervical screening program was implemented in 2006, and has led to a decrease in deaths from cervical cancer; however, screening rates are low in comparison to other European countries, and the screening procedure is carried out in gynecologist’s offices rather than in primary care. 𝗦𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘃𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 💰 Poland has recognized the need to improve the organization of cancer care in areas such as reducing waiting lists for both diagnostics and treatments. On Jan 1st, 2015 the country implemented a controversial oncological therapy fast-track known as the oncological package, which led to significantly shortened diagnostic and treatment times. The oncological package also aimed to abolish financing limits on the coverage of services provided in the pathway, a move that led to a substantial increase in spending, from €1.6bn in 2014 to €2.2bn in 2019. 𝗗𝗶𝗴𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 📱 E-health has been recognized as playing a pivotal role in meeting health priorities. Poland has initiated an eHealth Development Programme, focusing on enhancing primary care with e-health solutions as part of the goals of the national strategy, known as the Healthy Future Strategy framework. The strategy outlines the goals that Poland is utilizing to progress its medical infrastructure, and it establishes new benchmarks, goals, and preferences for the financial, societal, health, and geographical growth of its population.

This is a very timely occasion for government, civil society and the experts to gather and discuss the new approaches Ukraine should find to champion the battle against disinformation. Just in the beginning of the weeek the new Media Literacy Index has been revealed by Detector Media showing the decline of the media literacy level of population from 81% in 2022 to 76% in 2023. The conference aims to map out ways of raising media literacy and exchange of experience and to gain a better understanding of possible feasible alliances/coalitions on this road. Among the conference’s goals is also to compare best Ukrainian practices with those in other countries and start to form foundations for implementing them. UNDP Ukraine supports this important discussion initiated by the Ministry of culture and information policy and OSCE in Ukraine, together with Council of Europe, European delegation to Ukraine, IMS and UNESCO.

Is the security situation for Czechia, and the free world, the worst since World War II? What has lead us to this state? What can we, as businesses and individuals, do about it? Waking Monday to newspaper articles describing how most of the world were begging the leaders of two of humanity’s major religions not to blow each other up generated feelings of discouragement. This was my mood when I read the article on BIS chief Michal Koudelka’s assessment of the security of the Czechia. I will not contest where this moment ranks in terms of fear for our children’s future. I will note that the seeds of today were planted by our actions yesterday. What is happening on our internet feeds now is the surface phenomena of deeper issues that we have yet to address adequately. If we want a safer future tomorrow, we not only must face down the external threats today, but examine our own role in creating them. First, mass migration is caused by many things, but one factor will grow. Climate models suggest that equatorial regions will become uninhabitable, and predict that dislocation of populations will increase throughout this century. This will also cause the failure of states, and increased conflict. As a global society, we have transformed climate change into a symbol of our political beliefs. Our politicians, business, university and media leaders have failed in their roles to frame the public debate on this issue so that we properly understand what science says on the subject, and what economists and others predict will be the costs and benefits of taking action or not taking action. The Kremlin invaded Ukraine because it calculated that our individual interests would outweigh our national interests. This judgement was not merely the Kremlin projecting its own mindset on us, but also based on how we interacted with Russia since 1989. When Europe and America sanctioned Russia for seizing Crimea, reps of the two primary business organizations argued in a meeting with the US State Department that Czech companies had found a way to circumvent the sanctions, and therefore the sanctions should be eliminated. We should take a look at how exports to countries adjacent to Russia have been affected since February 2022. Last week, political reps at our Future of Health Care event blamed politics for a lack of improvement in health care, and pointed the finger at one man. We elect politicians to solve the differences through compromise (or we should). Creating demons wins elections, but it does not create good conditions for negotiated agreements that advance society. Mr. Koudelka is right that we face many external threats. How we handle our internal affairs will determine how successful we are in overcoming them. This applies equally to the United States as it does to Czechia, and to all nations that want individual freedom, democracy and free enterprise to prevail.

🚨 PMA calls on Slovakia's President to reject the controversial public broadcasting law, which could expose RTVS to political interference and censorship. PMA and other civil society organisations, media freedom groups, and media associations have long warned that the changes will make RTVS vulnerable to political interference and could result in it becoming a government mouthpiece. In a statement, the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) called the decision “a blow to democracy and independent media in Slovakia”. 💭 “It is a black day for the independent public space in Slovakia. It is a dark day for the media space in Slovakia. And it is a black day for civil society in Slovakia.” – RTVS CEO Ľuboš Machaj. Read our statement in full 👇 https://lnkd.in/e-Af7yER
