Health institutions with different models of healthcare systems involve the application of quality improvement in healthcare to provide better health services. Each country in the world develops its own sets of arrangements for meeting the basic goals of a healthcare system. These goals are keeping people healthy, treating the sick, and protecting families against financial strains from medical bills. Similarly, healthcare organizations can change the wasteful spending due to clinical waste by applying quality improvement methods to improve the process. Furthermore, quality improvement methods entail the definition of quality, developing improvement measures, and identifying variations. Additionally, these quality improvement methods enable healthcare organizations in approaching quality control and improvement effectively and scientifically.

THE BASIC MODELS OF HEALTHCARE SYSTEMS
Fundamentally, there are four models of healthcare systems. They include the Beveridge model, the Bismarck model, the national health insurance model, and the private insurance systems. In the Beveridge model, the majority of doctors and hospitals work for the government. However, private physicians also exist. It may not be efficient in approaching quality control as government systems tend to be slow. The Bismarck model involves the application of quality improvement for better health outcomes. Also, insurance companies provide healthcare. Additionally, hospitals and doctors may also not operate on profit.

Additionally, creating a platform for improvement facilitates adoption helps in approaching quality control. Quality improvement should also have a measure of improvement. Moreover, improvement measures in different models of healthcare systems create high-value data that not only leads to dramatic improvement but also saves time and resources. Additionally, using a quality improvement framework is vital for implementing improvement steps.
