Organizations
The Observatory is the result of a joint effort by a group of individuals who believe in the importance of facilitating the identification, classification and promotion of organizations that are pushing the boundaries of innovation on chronic disease management (CDM), worldwide.
On this site, you could find an interactive directory with information from such organizations.
The directory includes examples of key organizations identified in Europe and Latin America. Given that the Observatory is funded by the Andalusian government, there is a special section devoted to innovative Spanish organizations.
Feel free to browse the directory. If you are interested in contributing examples, please click here to register or here to send a message to the site administrators.
To be deemed as innovative, an organization would need to meet at least four of the following criteria:
- It focuses on complex cases of patients with more than one chronic condition
- Also it meets at least three of the following criteria
- Support for process-driven chronic disease management
- Use of information and communication technologies during planning, coordination, implementation, and monitoring of activities related to CDM
- Conduct of systematic analyses of the impact of CDM initiatives at any level (e.g., clinical, financial, organizational or technological)
- Designation of at least one person to lead or promote activities related to CDM
- Availability of teams of health professionals specialized in CDM
- Use of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines to facilitate CDM
