internal QM
 Participation in measures for external quality assurance
 § 137 SGB V: Regulations and decisions for QM
 Federal Joint Committee (G-BA) formulates basic
requirements for an internal QM and
 defines quality indicators for the legally requested
quality report

AWMF Guidelines
Working Group of the Scientific Medical Associations
(AWMF):
 Systematically developed (Evidence based medicine)
 Describe the Current state of the art and medical science
 Ascertain the decision making procedures of doctors and
patients in respect to an adequate medical diagnostic and
treatment standard for specific diseases or health
problems
 Clear recommendations to act based on assessements of
the scientific value and usability of study results
Dr. Erwig Pinter
QKB-Qualität im Krankenhaus Beratungsgesellschaft mbH
25
Clinical relevance of the AWMF Guidelines
AWMF:
 Guidelines are corridors for the medical decisions and
actions
 Deviations are possible in certain cases, but reasons have
to be stated
 The workflow according to the scientific guidelines of the
AWMF has to be adapted to the individual applicability in
an individual situation according to the parameters
 indication
 consultation,
 preferences
 participation in decision making
Dr. Erwig Pinter

26
Classifications of AWMF guidelines
AWMF:
 S1: Recommendations of scientific expert groups
 S2: Guidelines based on evidence (S2e) or consensus
of a discipline representing committee (S2k)
 S3: Guidelines based on evidence as well as on the
consensus of a discipline representing committee
Remark:
 In Germany it is important for the doctors liability to obey
in detail at least the S-3 guidelines (and a must to get
some certifications like OnkoZert)

Certification status in acute hospitals
Problems in status assessment:

no publicly available source about precise certification numbers since
certification in acute hopitals is voluntarily




Each certified hospital promotes its own certification
Only active KTQ certifications are listed publicly
ISO certifications are not released from the certification organisations
Private data sources about hospitals differ in definitions from the
Federal Authority of Statistics
Result: We could evaluate for you the current certification situation only on
a reference basis of about ¾ of the 2017 acute hospitals, namely in 1576,
but we can offer at least an overall view of conclusions

in General Certification Schemes (status 2012)

Many hospitals are additionally
certified in specific disease

Critics to General Certifications Schemes
Not specific for Health Care.
Origins from Industry
3 year periods between conformity
assessements
Valuable structured approach but not
all ISO elements meet the special
needs of indiviual patient
Self-assessment is big workload (1/2
year) in the valuable overall evaluation.
Implementation of the possible
improvements however is separate act
Some doctors see much formalism not
really improving outcome but
hindering patient work
If executives are not convinced by QM
and their necessary daily support goes
to a minimum:
the hospital freezes in QM between the
3 yearly self-assessements ->
No further organization developement

Assessment after 20 years QM experience
Preferred is structured QM approach of ISO type but only with special
touch to meet the health sectors needs:

Development in the health-care sector in understandable language of
the health care professionals






Focus on patient orientation
Evidence based medicine
Risk-management
Prevention of defects and non-conformities
Usable for all health-care organisations
For small and very complex organisations with all necessary aspects
(patient care, medical competence, clinical pathways etc.)

External quality assurance
Measures for external quality assurance according to the
Federal Joint Committee’s requirements:
Goal: improvement of the quality and comparability of health
care services
 German-specific
 Documentation and transmitting of data to the evaluating
institute in regard to defined quality indicators in 30
chapters
e.g. obstetrics, transplantation of cardiac pacemaker
 Recording and analyzing data across all hospitals in
Germany
 Some quality indicators are also part of the quality report
Dr. Erwig Pinter
QKB-Qualität im Krankenhaus Beratungsgesellschaft mbH
51
External quality assurance
1. Patient care and documentation
2. Transmitting the data to the AQUA Institute and regional
authority for quality assurance
3. The regional authority and the AQUA Institute analyze the data
4. Inform hospitals about results of the analysis
5. “Structured dialog” in significant deviations from normal
6. Objective agreement on quality improving measures
Dr. Erwig Pinter

Results of the external quality assurance 2012




1658 hospitals participated
465 quality indicators of 30 chapters
4 Mio. data sets to analyze
Results:
 In total, the quality of health care in Germany is on a
high level
 But specific potentials for improvement identified:
E.g. Current documentation in the field of liver
transplantation has to be strengthened with more
parameters

Quality reports of hospitals
 Legal obligation for hospitals to publish yearly a quality
report
 Content, range and data format are defined by the Federal
Joint Committee (G-BA)
 Part A: information about structure and health care
services of the hospital
 Part B: information about structure and health care
services of specialty departments of the hospital
 Information about quality assurance

“coordinated activities to direct and control an
organization with regard to quality”

QM implementation approaches differ
QM-approaches differ due to hospital size and service:
We experienced during the 20 years QM realisation in respect
to type and extent of QM realisation:
Dominating factors in initiatialization and realisation of QM
 Basic Services:
Individual executive experiences
 Main focus Services: Recommendations of associations
 Maximal Service:
Legal requirements factor

QM in regular and basic hospitals
Short way communications and decisions
 Two possible ways:
 QM is responsibility of some individual persons
additionally to and together with their actual work or
 Special appointed member of management with
responibility for Qualitätsmanagement and e.g. riskmanagement
 Important: Priority setting is a must in different QM-projects

QM postgraduate education as success factor
Focus in personnel training in Germany very important

Mandatory further education of doctors has to be proven all five years
(via collection of certification points per event)

Additional special health personal trainings in QM, teambuilding,
teamwork and communication


Most important in practical terms (BÄK/Bundesärztekammer):
QM-qualification by the Federal Medical Association
 “Curriculum of medical quality management”
 200 hours in three parts in one year with examination
 Target groups:
Medical chief executives, senior physicians and Consultants

Areas for improvement

QM has to be implemented and is to be applied in the entire hospital
(S. Pilz et al. 2013)

Deficiences in the implementation (N. Kasper, 2011)
1. Application

and elaborated standards is
not successful

2. Monitoring, measuring and act

Areas for improvement
Surveys on behalf of the Federal Joint Committee about the perception
of the users about the Quality Reports

Patients and doctors underutilize the Quality Reports of the clinics in
the clinic selection
 Patients in majority don‘t even know the Quality Reports

Perception of the hospitals
 Quality Reports do merely adequate reflect the real spectrum and
quality of the services of a clinic
 Quality Reports have to be improved in the way of presentation,
detailedness, comprehensibility for lay people, freedom of too
narrow legal arrangement

Mandatorily required QM
Certified QM in health sector is becoming more and more mandatorily
required by law:


QM as safety factor in economically stringent situations

Medical laboratories have to prove specified capabilities
Convincing evidence for benfits by QM in outcome and processes
based on our practical experience
Certifications required:


Rehabilitation hospitals
Dentists
Mandatorily QM implementation:

QM has to be implemented mandatorily by law
in each health service, e.g. practitioners, emergency medical service,
psychiatry etc.
