Hospital Governance in Europe

The economic crisis and several scandals have increased recently the interest of the public in the corporate governance. In health care, governance is since long a crucial element in the organisation and management of hospitals. Given the evolution of health care and the specific situation of hospitals, EAHM has taken the topic of hospital governance on its agenda.

Two directions has been followed until now.
1. The topic of hospital governance needs more in-depth analysis. Therefore EAHM supported the research in this field through its scientific subcommittee.
2. Creating awareness and dissemination of scientific results through our magazine "Hospital" and our congress.

Further actions are in discussion. We invite our members to share their views in this field.
