Does Healthcare Deliver? | OECD

Mar 9, 2025 | oecd.org

For far too long, we have lacked meaningful insights into people’s experiences of healthcare and their health outcomes. The Patient-Reported Indicator Surveys (PaRIS) is a groundbreaking OECD initiative that captures health outcomes and experiences from over 107 000 patients aged 45 years and older across more than 1 800 primary care practices in 19 countries. Traditionally, health system performance indicators have focused on inputs and processes as well as clinical indicators rather than on how healthcare delivers care from patients’ perspectives and how it influences their lives. PaRIS fills this gap. It offers a unique set of indicators revealing how people with chronic conditions experience healthcare and how it affects their lives. By highlighting what matters most to patients, PaRIS provides valuable insights into how healthcare models perform in delivering meaningful and people-centred care and what can be done to improve outcomes and experiences of care for people with chronic conditions.

Intellectual property issues in artificial intelligence trained on scraped data | OECD

Feb 9, 2025 | oecd.org

Recent technological advances in artificial intelligence (AI), especially the rise of generative AI, have raised questions regarding the intellectual property (IP) landscape. As the demand for AI training data surges, certain data collection methods give rise to concerns about the protection of IP and other rights. This report provides an overview of key issues at the intersection of AI and some IP rights. It aims to facilitate a greater understanding of data scraping — a primary method for obtaining AI training data needed to develop many large language models. It analyses data scraping techniques, identifies key stakeholders, and worldwide legal and regulatory responses. Finally, it offers preliminary considerations and potential policy approaches to help guide policymakers in navigating these issues, ensuring that AI’s innovative potential is unleashed while protecting IP and other rights.

Insights from Skills Strategies in the European Union | OECD

Nov 22, 2024 | oecd.org

Skills are central to the capacity of countries and people to thrive in an increasingly interconnected and rapidly changing world. To this end, countries should develop resilient and adaptable skills systems to ensure their populations have the necessary skills to succeed today and in the future.Creating a skills system that effectively responds to these challenges requires collaboration and co-ordination across government and with stakeholders, and a strategic and holistic perspective on skills policies. In response, an increasing number of countries have been developing skills strategies. These strategies enable countries to adopt a comprehensive and co-ordinated approach to assessing skills challenges and opportunities, identifying priority areas for action, and setting strategic policy directions for the medium to long term.In this study, supported by the European Commission, the OECD analysed skills strategies developed and implemented in the European Union over the past decade. Based on a mapping of 26 skills strategies, desktop research, stakeholder consultations, and expert meetings for selected case studies, nine key lessons are presented for developing and implementing skills strategies. These lessons capture the essential characteristics of successful skills strategies and serve as an informational tool for policymakers to develop new skills strategies or update existing ones.
