Health experts in the Chancellery

A lot went wrong during the Corona pandemic, also in the exchange between science, politics and the public. Now there are further challenges for the healthcare system, such as the question of how well it is prepared for a possible war.

This could work better in the future, a new central coordination committee on scientific policy advice in healthcare could arise. Recommendations by the Expert Council Health and Resilience, which were published in Berlin on Monday, amount to this. According to the will of the authors, the proposals in the coalition negotiations for a new federal government should be taken into account. New interdisciplinary koornation committee. The round includes more than 20 scientists, including the virologist Christian Drosten and Cologne pneumologist Christian Karagiannidis. The director is Heyo Kroemer, the CEO of the Berlin University Hospital Charité. The new statement, the fourteenth of the body, has largely written the Braunschweig political scientist Nils Bandelow. He has a new interdisciplinary coordination committee in the Federal Chancellery that should advise politics on public health care (public health). The approach “health in all policy fields” (health in all policies) must extend beyond the health system and also take a look at the topics of the environment, education, research, social affairs and traffic, said Bandelow The FAZ if necessary, the district could add the representatives of other disciplines. “This is often missing, but we often lack networking,” complained the political professor. The comprehensive expertise in the federal government and in the countries, in the ministries, advisory councils, associations, in parliaments or self -administrations have to be brought together. So far, people have often worked against each other. “The federal competence distribution in German healthcare complicates uniform, evidence -based political advice,” says Bandelow. Besere coordination and more targeted recourse to knowledge. All approaches are always about better prevention and care for the population. “Germany’s health expenditure increases rapidly, but the results are only mediocre in terms of indicators such as life expectancy: the costs are high, the effect is low,” criticized Bandelow. “Demographic change, climate changes and new crises such as pandemics or wars represent additional burdens.” A more effective health policy needs better coordination of science -based political counseling and a more targeted recourse to existing knowledge. The new council must also take international comparisons and the so -called strategic foresight than the existing expert groups. In pandemic, people didn’t even know how the decision -making process took place in other countries – and therefore could not learn from these examples. Scandinavia, Great Britain, France or the Netherlands could have had and were therefore crisis -resistant to existing consultants or health councils. However, the United Kingdom is already very successful in the health system. Bandelow is convinced that such in Germany must also become an integral part of health planning: “Instead of only reacting to acute problems, political advice should anticipate future scenarios and evaluate risks at an early stage.”
