The Swedish Knowledge Agency - an independent fundraising foundation that aims to compile facts and analyze important social issues, has recently released the report "How is healthcare?". Sirona has assisted in the analysis.
In the Swedish Knowledge Agency's report, the main conclusions are that healthcare has received more resources, but that the number of healthcare contacts has not increased in line with the increase in resources. It is also noted that the workforce has grown, but that this mainly concerns administrative roles and not the staff groups that meet the patients. The analyses also show that queues have grown in recent years, which affects patient satisfaction. In summary, the report concludes that more resources have not solved the healthcare system's problems with queues and accessibility, which suggests that there are shortcomings in the allocation of resources within the healthcare system. The report highlights several of the challenges that we at Sirona work with daily.
We recommend everyone to read the report to get access to updated statistics and current information on how Swedish healthcare is doing. Read the report here.
The report has also been highlighted in several media outlets, so we would like to take this opportunity to recommend a worthwhile article on the subject:
