Apuramento de custos por utente nos cuidados de saúde primários

RESUMO - Introdução: A ausência de um plano de contabilidade analítica para os Cuidados de Saúde Primários é um problema para a realização da contabilidade interna, fundamental para a gestão de qualquer instituição de saúde. Sem linhas orientadoras para a uniformização dos critérios de imputação e distribuição dos custos/proveitos, torna-se complicado obter dados analíticos para que haja um controlo de gestão mais eficaz, que permita a utilização dos recursos de uma forma eficiente e racional, melhorando a qualidade da prestação de cuidados aos utentes. Objectivo: O presente projecto de investigação tem como principal objectivo apurar o custo por utente nos Cuidados de Saúde Primários. Metodologia: Foi construída uma metodologia de apuramento de custos com base no método Time-Driven Activity-Based Costing. O custo foi imputado a cada utente utilizando os seguintes costs drivers: tempo de realização da consulta e a produção realizada para a imputação dos custos com o pessoal médico; produção realizada para a imputação dos outros custos com o pessoal e dos custos indirectos variáveis; número total de utentes inscritos para a imputação dos custos indirectos fixos. Resultados: O custo total apurado foi 2.980.745,10€. O número médio de consultas é de 3,17 consultas por utente inscrito e de 4,72 consultas por utente utilizador. O custo médio por utente é de 195,76€. O custo médio por utente do género feminino é de 232,41€. O custo médio por utente do género masculino é de 154,80€. As rubricas com mais peso no custo total por utente são os medicamentos (40,32%), custo com pessoal médico (22,87%) e MCDT (17,18%). Conclusão: Na implementação de um sistema de apuramentos de custos por utente, é fulcral que existam sistemas de informação eficientes que permitam o registo dos cuidados prestados ao utente pelos vários níveis de prestação de cuidados. É importante também que a gestão não utilize apenas os resultados apurados como uma ferramenta de controlo de custos, devendo ser potenciada a sua utilização para a criação de valor ao utente.

How small accounting firms can compete in an environment in which the big four are getting bigger

This paper sets out to determine how small accounting firms can compete in the United States in the early 21st century. The first chapter identifies the central goal of the paper: namely, to use existing literature and market data to define a business strategy for Ross & Moncure, Inc., a small accounting firm in the metropolitan Washington area. The second chapter is a literature review, and in it the author finds that large accounting firms are advantaged in terms of reputation, ability to diversify, and ability to retain employees, but are disadvantaged in their ability to form longstanding successful relationships with clients. In the third chapter, the author explores the relationship between the Big Four firms and their employees. The goal of this chapter is to determine how small accounting firms can compete for top talent in the HR market, and the author finds that this can be done by offering faster career progression and more client interaction. The fourth chapter looks at the market for accounting services in the United States, exploring the different options that consumers have to meet their accounting needs. It is found in this chapter that big and small accounting firms tend to compete for clients of different profiles. In the fifth chapter, the author uses proprietary company data to explore the composition, existing strategy and culture of Ross & Moncure. In the sixth chapter, all of the previous chapters come together to formulate a strategy and plan for action for Ross & Moncure: specifically, that the firm should further cultivate networks and relationships, and should create a fulfilling professional environment by increasing client-employee interaction, encouraging external education, and allowing employees to take on many different projects

A technological innovation plan for enterprises in the Azores

The INOTEC-Empresa – the Technological Innovation Plan for Enterprises in the Autonomous Region of the Azores (RAA) - was developed in 2006-2007, at the request of the Regional Government, with the main aim of promoting innovation within small and medium enterprises. The methodological approach used in the development of the INOTEC – Empresa Plan was designed to obtain a comprehensive view of regional actors and included a document review, participation of the various actors through interviews, a collection of statements from RAA – Região Autónoma dos Açores – entrepreneurs, academics, public leaders and other key players, together with an analysis of their views and a survey of the innovation dynamics of the most relevant Azorean enterprises. The INOTEC-Empresa – the Technological Innovation Plan for Enterprises – comprises seven programmes aimed at promoting innovation in the Region.

Analysis of the pathway of developing a national mental health plan for Suriname

ABSTRACT: The aim of this analysis was to analyze and describe the steps that have been taken in the development of the mental health policy in Suriname after the WHO AIMS. The objectives are: 1.To review the steps to be taken in developing a mental health policy and plan for a country 2.To gather information and data concerning mental health policy and plan development in Suriname 3.To draw conclusion from the experience gained that can be applied to other countries. In general, the information that was gathered from the four countries Guyana, Barbados, Trinidad & Tobago and Suriname, was compared with the WHO steps for developing a mental health policy and plan. Were these steps taken into consideration, when developing their mental health policy and plan? If not, what were the reasons why it did not happen? The checklist for evaluating a mental health plan was used in Suriname. This checklist assisted to see if the results of the recommendations given by the WHO AIMS to develop a effective and balanced mental health plan were taken into consideration. The mayor findings of the analysis are that Suriname as well as Guyana used the steps in developing their mental health policy and plan. Barbados and Trinidad & Tobago did not develop a mental health policy and plan. Suriname and Guyana have a mental health coordinating body at the Ministry of Health. Trinidad & Tobago as well as Barbados have a mental health focal person at the Ministry of Health of the respective countries. It can be concluded that successfully improving of health systems and services for mental health is combining theoretical concepts, expert knowledge and cooperation of many stakeholders. The appointment of a mental health coordinating unit at the Ministry of Health is crucial for the development of mental health in a country. Furthermore, mental health is everyone’s business and responsibility. Implementing the steps to be taken when developing a mental health policy and plan as recommended by WHO may be a slow process requiring the mobilization of political will. That’s why it is crucial that persons responsible for this process work close with all stakeholders in relevant sectors, taking their needs into consideration and try to translate that in clear objectives. It is common knowledge that improving the quality of mental health must be accompanied by the availability of financial and human resources. Finally, a mental health policy and plan should be one document tackling all aspects of mental health of a community.
