Question:

What were the advantages and disadvantages of Sweden’s 2005 reform implementing the "0-7-90-90" waiting time guarantee?

Author: Henriette Bergo



Answer:

Advantages: Reduced waiting times for consultations and treatments, improving patient satisfaction. Ensured access to timely care, even allowing treatment in other regions or private facilities if local services were unavailable. Disadvantages: Heavy reliance on private providers for backup care increased costs. Added pressure on county councils to meet guarantees, creating disparities in performance across regions.
