FULL TIME MSc STUDENT
BIO Eniola Ojo, with a rich background in both private and public sectors in Nigeria, embarked on a journey to the United Kingdom to pursue a Masters degree in MSc Advanced Health and Care Management with a focus on Value-Based. Currently serving as a dedicated Value-Based Healthcare Administrative Support at Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board, leveraging my diverse experience to contribute to the successful implementation of progressive healthcare strategies. My commitment lies in optimising healthcare delivery, aligning with my academic expertise and practical insights gained through my professional journey in Nigeria and ongoing endeavours in the United Kingdom. During my tenure in the MSc Advanced Health and Care Management (Value-Based) at the School of Management, Swansea University, I honed critical skills in implementing and optimising healthcare delivery models. The curriculum equipped me with a deep understanding of VBHC principles, emphasising patient-centric care and efficient healthcare management. Engaging in case studies and practical applications, I developed expertise in leveraging data, fostering a culture of continuous improvement, and aligning healthcare practices with the evolving landscape of Value-Based strategies. This educational experience has empowered me to contribute effectively to the implementation of Value- Based principles in my current role at Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board.
RESEARCH IMPACT Research Topic: Assessing the Awareness, Acceptability and Feasibility of Implementing Value-Based Healthcare in Lagos, Nigeria. Lagos, Nigeria faces significant healthcare challenges such as limited resources, inadequate infrastructure, inequitable access to quality healthcare, high level of mortality and morbidity and low value. According to the survey, many of the healthcare professionals and administrators lacked an understanding of what Value-Based healthcare is about. Additionally, cultural and systematic barriers may hinder the acceptance and feasibility of transitioning to a Value-Based approach. Without addressing these issues, the healthcare system in Lagos may struggle to improve patient outcomes and control costs effectively. To address these challenges, a pilot study focused on assessing the awareness, acceptability and feasibility of implementing VBHC in Lagos. This study involved targeted educational programs for healthcare professionals and the public to enhance understanding of VHBC and its principles. Demonstration and case studies from successful implementation globally were used to showcase feasibility and benefits of adopting such an approach in Lagos, Nigeria. The impact of this study is transformative for the healthcare landscape in Lagos, Nigeria. Increased awareness would lead to a more informed and engaged healthcare workforce and public fostering culture receptive to Value-Based principles. By addressing cultural and systematic barriers, the study enhanced the acceptability and feasibility of VBHC, potentially paving the way for broader implementation. Ultimately, the impact would be seen in improved patient outcomes, enhanced healthcare quality, and optimised resource utilisation, contributing to a more sustainable and effective healthcare system in Lagos, Nigeria.
