Ensuring the Sustainability of Health Care Management Expert Support and Decision Making in Modern Conditions

Current technological and environmental changes requiring new approaches for healthcare data generation and assessment as well as decision-making support. The analysis performed using Delphi method indicated that sustainability of healthcare decision-making by using a number of approaches based on existing opportunities for proactive risk-based assessment of population health and healthcare interventions. Non-numerical qualitative expert opinions are of the same value as quantitive data while the balance between them and the methodology of mutual transformation form an integrated evidence-based support for the sustainable data generation and healthcare decision-making. Qualitative expert opinions make it also possible to decrease the asymmetry and lack of quantitative data between model studies on animals and the characteristics of the human body. The balance between qualitative expert assessment and the digital evidence changes during the lifecycle of the intervention or possibly process (like pandemic). Sustainability of healthcare decision-making in changing environment depends on availability and methods of qualitative expert support. Currently, there are no generally accepted methods for the final qualitative expert assessment, which makes it possible to reduce the diversity of interdisciplinary big data to a transparent and understandable assessment and these methodology and methods are to be developed. Automated systems for early detection of emergent cases based on medical statistics data are also of great importance and capable increasing sustainability of healthcare management and this information should be linked to pre-prepared action plans to avoid COVID-19 lessons in future. © 2025 ASSA.
