5 HOW DO WE ADDRESS THE QUALITY OF USE OF MEDICINES AND MEDICAL TESTS? Identifying problems at a community level and the changes that would be required for improvement Attention on both the consumer and health professional issues Understanding the clinical environment and maintaining relevance Identifying barriers and enablers for change Promoting evidence-based messages Using a mix of interventions with a sound theoretical base Working across disciplines and sectors Monitoring and evaluating using data to inform decisions and evaluate impact

6 IMPACT OF NPS QUALITY USE OF MEDICINES: improved health and economic outcomes improved prescribing and use of medicines/medical tests influence improved attitudes, skills and knowledge participation and exposure access awareness reach

7 SUSTAINED BEHAVIOUR CHANGE The limited success of behaviour-change efforts. can be traced, in part, to: - failure to fully understand the determinants of the behaviours - and a failure to properly apply health behaviour change theory to the development and implementation of effective interventions. Andrea Gielen and David Sleet, Epidemiol Rev 2003;25:65-76

8 SOCIAL MARKETING FRAMEWORK The application of commercial marketing techniques to the analysis, planning, execution and evaluation of programs designed to influence the voluntary behaviour of target audiences in order to improve their personal welfare and that of society An effective marketing mix: - Product, Price, Place and Promotion Selling an idea (change in behaviour) by highlighting the benefits, reducing the barriers and offering a better choice than the alternative (no change in behaviour)

9 SOCIAL MARKETING Aims to bring about behaviour change to benefit society - audience research to understand their world, motivations, attitudes, beliefs and behaviours - segmentation of audiences to enable targeted messages - attractive motivational exchanges with audiences - a complete marketing mix, not just communication - careful attention paid to highlighting benefits, reducing barriers and enabling a better choice to the alternative J Antimicrobial Chemotherapy 2009;63:

11 GATEWAYS AND INFLUENCES Family & friends Non-medical prescriber General practitioner Media Specialist Internet Pharmacist

12 THE NPS APPROACH... Create awareness... promote curiosity Influence the influencers... work with opinion leaders Use simple messages and concepts that are relevant to everyday life Work in partnership with others to encourage people to ask when, why and how to use medicines and medical tests

13 CASE STUDY: ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE PROGRAM

14 ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE IN RESPIRATORY TRACT INFECTIONS Antibiotic resistance has been identified as one of the greatest threats to human health, with potential for a return to the 'pre-antibiotic era' where many routine infections were untreatable. The key factor contributing to this resistance trend is the indiscriminate use of antibiotics. Antibiotic resistance increases the risk of prolonged illness, complications and death. Patients remain infectious for longer and potentially spread resistant bacteria to others. Other treatments such as major surgery, organ transplant, cancer chemotherapy can be compromised. Preserving the miracle Our vision is that current and future generations will have access to effective prevention and treatment of bacterial infection as part of their right to health. * *ReActgroup.org Finally, the need for more expensive therapies increases financial burden to families and society.

18 FACILITATED EDUCATION PROGRAMS Primary care programs Hospitals Consumers

19 KEY MESSAGES Antibiotic resistance requires consideration at both a population and individual level Establish a patient s beliefs and expectations about antibiotics for acute RTIs and tailor communication strategies accordingly Consider the clinical usefulness and the associated risks to your patient before ordering an imaging test Encourage self-management of acute RTIs and explain why antibiotics may not be appropriate Consider the issue of resistance when prescribing antibiotics

20 FACILITATED EDUCATION: GENERAL PRACTICE DOCTORS How? trained Facilitators visit doctors 2-3 times each year - Managed in partnership with General Practice networks across Australia - Voluntary participation by doctors and practices What? - Face-to-face visits with GPs for one-on-one discussions with targeted and general messages (academic detailing) - Peer group discussions (based on case studies)
