Does free choice of hospital conflict with equity of access to highly specialized hospitals? A case study from the Danish health care system
During the last two decades, a common trait in public sector governance reforms in the Nordic countries has been the implementation of “free choice of hospital” policies, which seek to accommodate patients’ preferences for provider characteristics and create market conditions that incentivize hospitals to compete. In addition, choice in itself represents a value for individuals [1–3]. (Source: Health Policy)

Should interventions to reduce variation in care quality target doctors or hospitals?
Large variations in the quality of health care have been reported over many years, and in many countries [1,2]. Policymakers and professional bodies have responded to such variations with a variety of mechanisms including measurement ( ‘profiling’), monitoring, public reporting, regulation and incentives (financial and non-financial) [3,4]. These interventions have mostly been focused on organisational performance, particularly at the level of the hospital or clinical specialty, with the implicit assumption that the variation results from factors that can be influenced or affected by organisations and those who lead th...

Infectious disease health services for refugees and asylum seekers during a time of crisis: A scoping study of six European Union countries
In 2015, the European Union (EU) received the largest number of forced migrants since World War II: over 1.2 million asylum seekers were registered of which more than 50% were from Syria, Afghanistan, and Iraq [1]. Most of these migrants entered the EU through a combination of land and sea routes, with Greece and Italy being the main countries of arrival into the EU, receiving 853,650 and 153,842 migrants, respectively [2]. Subsequently, newly-arrived refugees continued to travel further north to intended destination countries. (Source: Health Policy)
