Given the current and future challenges in healthcare, more than ever it is vital to improve service user experience, quality of care, and provide sustainable solutions. Healthcare organizations around the world have been facing significant threats such as decreasing financial resources, workforce shortages, increase in the number of people needing care as a result of ageing populations, increasing rates of chronic disease, lack of shared data for decision making, scarcity or inadequacy of medical equipment and medications, and an absence of clear healthcare system governance. Many countries have embarked on universal health coverage, while others struggle with rising healthcare costs. To compound this, a global pandemic has highlighted the importance of virtual healthcare, new technologies, and the need to create and adapt approaches to healthcare management and delivery. These health and organizational challenges require bold and innovative steps to improve healthcare quality around the world.

This includes ministries of health, public and private healthcare systems, hospitals, clinics, non-governmental organizations and agencies that provide healthcare services, and more.

It can be applied to a management system for quality in healthcare organizations and is briefly described as follows. - Plan: establish healthcare quality objectives and processes necessary to deliver results in accordance with the organization’s healthcare quality policy (Clause 6). - Do: implement the processes as planned (Clauses 7 and 8). - Study: monitor, measure and assess processes against the organization’s policies, including its commitments, objectives and operating criteria and report the results (Clause 9). - Act: take actions to continually improve (Clause 10).
