Trust-Building Plan: More Surgeries, Less Waiting. A model for managing surgical patients

On December 2012, a total of 32,103 covered patients had been waiting for 432 days (on average) to undergo a surgical procedure, which translated into 50 per cent of dissatisfaction and reliability loss that showed up in several surveys.

Therefore, the top management established - as an institutional policy - a new model called Trust-Building Plan: More Surgeries, Less Waiting, which turns the waiting into a new opportunity to get back the trust of covered patients and associates, and to increase user's satisfaction.

Repeatable Medical Prescriptions Programme

The Repeatable Medical Prescriptions Programme aims to keep track of prescriptions for beneficiaries who go to first and second level medical units and follow controlled treatments for chronic-degenerative diseases, so that the patient can refill their medication over a period of 90 days, i.e. on the first consultation and the following two months. This optimizes the agenda of doctors who can provide services to other patients.

Adult Overweight and Obesity Preventive and Curative Programme

Under the Adult Overweight and Obesity Preventive and Curative Programme (Programa de Prevención y Regresión del Sobrepeso y Obesidad (PPRESyO)), the follow-up of patients used to be done empirically by means of a flat file, which resulted in lack of monitoring. For this reason, it was necessary to develop a user-friendly and intuitive technological platform to improve the service. This platform consists of tools for nutritional diagnosis, a calculator of protein and carbohydrate distribution, and the monitoring of the patient's diet.

Personal Loans Call Centre

Support training course for non-professional carers of the elderly

The tendency to care for people with health impairments at home has been growing in recent decades. This has led health and social security institutions to identify households as settings for care, and the family, as a fundamental element to support this practice. In this context, the State Employees' Social Security and Social Services Institute (Instituto de Seguridad y Servicios Sociales de los Trabajadores del Estado (ISSSTE)) has developed an interactive multimedia course that can be consulted by anyone with internet access.
