3 Sustainable design for health by Rosemary Glanville, Phil Nedin in Investing in hospitals of the future. Bernd Rechel, Stephen Wright, Nigel Edwards, Barrie Dowdeswell, Martin McKee. Ch.12, pp World Health Organization 2009, on behalf of the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies HEALTH AND EUROPEAN INTEGRATION: PART OF THE PROBLEM OR PART OF THE SOLUTION? Helmut Brand and Willy Palm - Eurohealth 2014; 20(3). A sustainable approach requires that selections be based on a whole life-cycle cost model. There appears to be little doubt that there will be an increase in the initial capital cost of a project when developing it as a sustainable model. However, these additional costs can be offset over the life of the facility. Achieving a sustainable design can typically add 6 12% to overall capital costs The goal must be to create a sustainable facility that is capable of being adapted to changing circumstances and which provides a healing or therapeutic environment, with decisions based on an understanding of costs over the whole life of the facility and not just the construction phase. This is inevitably challenging, as the future is intrinsically unpredictable. Health protection is also considered to be intrinsically part of the so-called European social model Angela Merkel, reminded us that in the EU, with 7% of the world s population, we generate 25% of the world s economy but also spend nearly 50% of all social benefits in the world. The main question was the effects of the crisis for health, the focus turned to how health systems can be made resilient and innovative

7 Elements of sustainable, highquality and fair models for European healthcare systems Thought provoking experts : A Top-down reform. Is there a best structure for healthcare systems? Can different stakeholders agree on common goals? What needs to change now to move towards an improved system? Pascal Garel, Chief Executive, European Hospital and Healthcare Foundation (HOPE) Jaak Peeters, Chairman, EMEA, Janssen Joanna Groves, Chief Executive Officer, International Alliance of Patients Organizations. Birgit Beger, Secretary General, Standing Committee of European Doctors Financing: who pays? Should the private sector bear more of the cost of healthcare and be more involved with the modernisation of the public sector? Should the individual be prepared to shoulder a higher cost of healthcare? Guillem López Casanovas, President, International Health Economics Association; Member of the Board, Central Bank of Spain and Professor of Applied Economics and Dean, Universidad Pompeu Fabra.

8 About the Expert Panel on effective ways of investing in Health (EXPH) Sound and timely scientific advice is an essential requirement for the Commission to pursue modern, responsive and sustainable health systems. To this end, the Commission has set up a multidisciplinary and independent Expert Panel which provides advice on effective ways of investing in health (Commission Decision 2012/C 198/06). The core element of the Expert Panel s mission is to provide the Commission with sound and independent advice in the form of opinions in response to questions (mandates) submitted by the Commission on matters related to health care modernisation, responsiveness, and sustainability. The advice does not bind the Commission. The areas of competence of the Expert Panel include, and are not limited to, primary care, hospital care, pharmaceuticals, research and development, prevention and promotion, links with the social protection sector, cross-border issues, system financing, information systems and patient registers, health inequalities, etc. Expert Panel members Pedro Barros, Margaret Barry, Helmut Brand, Werner Brouwer, Jan De Maeseneer (Chair), Bengt Jönsson (Vice-Chair), Fernando Lamata, Lasse Lehtonen, Dorjan Marušič, Martin McKee, Walter Ricciardi, Sarah Thomson

9 Symbiosis Reciprocal Rewards Stabilize Cooperation in the Mycorrhizal. E. Toby Kiers et al. Science, 333, 880 (2011) Plants and their arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal symbionts interact in complex underground networks involving multiple partners. This increases the potential for exploitation and defection by individuals, raising the question of how partners maintain a fair, two-way transfer of resources. We manipulated cooperation in plants and fungal partners to show that plants can detect, discriminate, and reward the best fungal partners with more carbohydrates. In turn, their fungal partners enforce cooperation by increasing nutrient transfer only to those roots providing more carbohydrates. control is bidirectional, and partners offering the best rate of exchange are rewarded. An alternative explanation for the stability of the plant-mycorrhizal mutualism is that both plants and fungi are able to detect variation in the resources supplied by their partners, allowing them to adjust their own resource allocation accordingly. On the basis of these observations we conclude that, unlike many other mutualisms, the symbiont cannot be enslaved. Rather, the mutualism is evolutionarily stable because

23 Complexity and sustainability Pr. Gabriele Pelissero, University of Pavia and AIOP Italy The inherent complexity of healthcare is related with the difficulties all healthcare systems experience in being truly sustainable. Since the 60s-70s, healthcare has reached its industrial stage. Innovation has became pervasive: pharmaceuticals, treatments, diagnostics. Innovation is expensive, and states budgets are shrinking due to the high costs of the European social model. With state budgets shrinking and a shrinking demography, public debt is no longer an option to sustain the welfare systems. The private sector combines a positive attitude towards innovation with a strong managerial efficiency. Its role can be in helping to rationalize the system: well-advised approach to innovative cures, best management capabilities.

29 Competition among providers EXPERT PANEL ON EFFECTIVE WAYS OF INVESTING IN HEALTH (EXPH) European Commission The European Union of Private Hospitals (UEHP) welcomes with satisfaction the preliminary opinion on competition among health care providers, through a comparative study of the reforms implemented in a few health systems. From this investigation about policy options undertaken by the EC Panel of expert follows that EU countries efforts to introduce competition have not always achieved the expected results. Nevertheless, we would like to draw the experts attention on the issue concerning the results of the regulatory reforms introduced to increase competition, often through the creation of quasi markets or welfare markets in the healthcare field, underlining that the attempts at active competition in healthcare markets have often been weakened, if not reversing the policy trends at theoretical level, at least not adequately implementing them. Same question in the EUROFOUND working group
