What specific measures can be implemented to address the funding challenges faced by public hospitals like the Hospital de Clínicas in Argentina?
**Interview with Dr. Viviana E Rodriguez, Coordinator of Quality, Patient Safety and Clinical Management Department, IECS, Argentina**
**Interviewer:** Thank you for joining us, Dr. Rodriguez. Given the current state of healthcare in Argentina, how would you describe the challenges facing hospitals, particularly in relation to recent political changes?
**Dr. Rodriguez:** Thank you for having me. The healthcare landscape in Argentina is indeed facing significant challenges, especially with the recent policies introduced by the current administration. There has been a shift towards defunding public education and health services, which is concerning. These changes hinder our ability to provide care effectively, as hospitals like the Hospital de Clínicas are primarily state-funded, given their connection to the University of Buenos Aires [[1](https://insights.omnia-health.com/hospital-management/highlighting-patient-safety-and-quality-argentina)].
**Interviewer:** You mentioned the Hospital de Clínicas. Can you elaborate on its role and the impact of these political changes on its operations?
**Dr. Rodriguez:** Certainly. The Hospital de Clínicas is a national reference center for healthcare and education, handling around 365,000 consultations and performing over 8,000 surgeries annually [[1](https://insights.omnia-health.com/hospital-management/highlighting-patient-safety-and-quality-argentina)]. However, the shift towards a market-oriented approach means that many individuals are losing their private health insurance and are subsequently relying more heavily on public services, which are already overstretched. This can result in many patients “falling” into a lower tier of healthcare, which exacerbates existing inequalities in our system.
**Interviewer:** With these challenges, what solutions do you believe are necessary to ensure patient safety and quality care are maintained?
**Dr. Rodriguez:** First and foremost, we need to advocate for policies that bolster public health funding rather than diminish it. Moreover, we must improve coordination within the fragmented system, which often results in disparities in access and quality of care. Collaboration between hospitals, government, and private sectors is crucial to leverage resources effectively [[1](https://insights.omnia-health.com/hospital-management/highlighting-patient-safety-and-quality-argentina)]. Engaging in discussions about policy reforms that prioritize patient safety and quality care is essential for improving health outcomes for all Argentinians.
**Interviewer:** Lastly, what role do organizations like the Hospital de Clínicas Foundation play in this landscape?
**Dr. Rodriguez:** Organizations like the Hospital de Clínicas Foundation are vital, as they can mobilize resources and raise funds to support hospital functions in challenging times. Their connections with various stakeholders, including politicians and business leaders, allow them to advocate for necessary resources and support the hospital’s infrastructure and programs [[1](https://insights.omnia-health.com/hospital-management/highlighting-patient-safety-and-quality-argentina)]. This kind of fundraising, especially in these economically strained conditions, is going to be critical for sustaining health services and enhancing patient care.
**Interviewer:** Thank you, Dr. Rodriguez, for sharing your insights on these pressing issues in Argentina’s healthcare system.
**Dr. Rodriguez:** Thank you for the opportunity to discuss these important topics.
