Innovations, competitive advantage of the organization, risk elements and problems in the introduction of innovations in health care organizations in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina: F.B&H

In competitive advantage terminology, the value is the amount, which the buyer is willing to pay for what the organizations offer to him/her. The value is measured by the total revenue. Organization is profitable if it the value it creates exceeds the costs involved in the creation of its products/services. Innovations that we use today, in the near future will be replaced by the completely new ones. Particular number of individual psychological factors has been studied in connection with resistance to the organizational innovation. For health care organizations in F.B&H, the obstacles in introduction of innovation, are very often political party disagreements, especially when the suggestions for innovations are coming from those who do not hold the political power. Health care is very complex and open macro-system with special importance for society. Health care system is composed of large number of its subsystems (micro-systems). Value and quality of any socio-system is being estimated by the degree of functioning of its components and system as the whole. Unfortunately, today in F.B&H entity, besides few honorable examples, we have a problem with a low and disharmonized complementary health care level, with lack of health care staff and system fragmentation. The ultilization of the modern innovation models, in which all must be included, from changing the patients' and health care workers' mindset, legislation, insurance funds and managers of health care institutions, can be the beginning point in improving the current situation.
