Public–private partnerships in hospital innovation: what lessons for hospital management?
Résumé
Healthcare systems in developed countries are facing enormous socio-economic challenges. The development of cooperation between healthcare providers and of public-private partnerships (PPPs) has emerged as a priority area in the restructuring of the healthcare landscape everywhere. However, these PPPs are regarded essentially in economic terms, as means of cost reduction, which fails to do justice to the multiplicity of innovation dynamics at work. Drawing on an in-depth case study of a PPP and on theoretical models of service innovation, we investigate the complex and many-sided natures of hospital innovation associated with certain PPPs and formulate a number of managerial recommendations.
