Pinch Analysis as a Quantitative Decision Framework for Determining Gaps in Health Care Delivery Systems

摘要: With “good health and well-being” being set as one of the targets Sustainable Development Goal (SDG), this paper proposes application pinch analysis, a quantitative method originally applied to conserve scarce resources in source-demand allocation networks, for identifying gaps care service delivery. This is also found be useful infrastructure capacity planning policy testing. The major contribution context identification marginalized sections testing specific policies targeted towards them, which will justify release financial aid development appropriate sections. We explored concept investigating in-patient delivery system developing nations, where facilities (both public private) thrive by offering services at drastically different prices. A novel framework developed paper, supported case study Kolkata, India both surplus faced population are identified. In order offset these gaps, we offer recommendations possible implementation. few hypothetical scenarios examined understand importance analysis conclude proving that can robust integrated decision-making sector, especially resource-constrained communities.
