1 Field-level change in post- Soviet contexts: evolving institutional logics in primary healthcare restructuring Federica Secci MSc, PhD Candidate CERGAS, Bocconi University 24 September 2010
2 About me
3 Key message: how does change unfold? Our current understanding: The process of change occurs through shifts in sets of belief systems (logics) My view: perpetual motion of change The process of change occurs through grafting and evolution of belief systems (logics) Logics are not monolithic, but they evolve (toolkits) Logics and fields are layered, stratified

5 Agenda 1. Theoretical framework 2. Research question and contributions 3. Methodology 4. Empirical settings 5. Findings 6. Contributions of the study 7. Future research agenda
6 Institutional theory approach to study change Core constructs: Why are organizations similar? They become isomorphic to institutions (Meyer & Rowan 1977, DiMaggio & Powell 1983) To acquire legitimacy (Suchman 1995) Within a given sector, field (Scott 1994, DiMaggio 1983) Why do organization differ and change? The environment is complex (Greenwood et al. 2010) There are multiple logics (Friedland & Alford 1991) There is embedded agency (Holm 1995, Seo & Creed 2002)
7 How does institutional theory see change? Change as: Theorization of new institutions (Greenwood, Suddaby & Hinings 2002) Delegitimation of old institutions (Oliver 1992) Shift in the dominant logic (Thornton & Ocasio 1999; Scott et al. 2000; Lounsbury 2007; Greenwood et al. 2008) Translation of institutions (Sahlin-Andersson 1996) How do logics relate to each other? (Reay & Suddaby 2009; Greenwood et al. 2010) Are old beliefs and practices really abandoned? Does change only occur through shifts in logics?
8 Agenda 1. Theoretical framework 2. Research question and contributions 3. Methodology 4. Empirical settings 5. Findings 6. Contributions of the study 7. Future research agenda Imperial College Business School
9 2. Research question and contributions Research question: How does field-level change unfold? How do logics evolve, generating a more or less homogeneous configuration and stratification of the field? Contributions: Evolution of institutional logics Field and actor stratification Grafting process Intellectual leaders as theorizing agents
10 Agenda 1. Theoretical framework 2. Research question and contributions 3. Methodology 4. Empirical settings 5. Findings 6. Contributions of the study 7. Future research agenda Imperial College Business School
11 Why Estonia and Lithuania? Imperial College Business School
12 3. Methodology: standpoint and approach Standpoint and approach: Interpretive and constructivist research Inductive theory generation Naturalistic methodology (qualitative research) Strategy and methods: Comparative case study design (instrumentality) Theoretical sampling and constant comparison (Berger and Luckmann 1967; Denzin and Lincoln 2000; Glaser & Strauss 1967; Langley 1999; Lincoln and Guba 1985; Morgan and Smircich 1980; Strauss & Corbin 1990; Pope and Mays 2000; Stake 2000)
13 Agenda 1. Theoretical framework 2. Research question and contributions 3. Methodology 4. Empirical settings 5. Findings 6. Contributions of the study 7. Future research agenda Imperial College Business School
14 Estonia & Lithuania: background information Similar but different: Size and population (Lithuania is bigger) Ethnical composition (Lithuania is more homogeneous) Language (Estonian is Finno-Ugric, Lithuanian Indo- European) Religion (Estonians are atheist, Lithuanians Catholic) Past history (Estonia fell under Germany and Sweden, Lithuania under Poland) Economic indicators (GDP, health expenditure) Health outcomes (life expectancy)
15 Focus on healthcare: pre-reform (Semashko) However: Poor health outcomes and responsiveness Resource constraints Desire of Westernization
16 Focus on healthcare: the current system
17 Professional logics in primary care Elements Specialist-led (Semashko) Generalist-led (GP) Public insurance and Economic system Central planning contracting system External: doctor as gatewayto-treatment coordinator-of-care Internal: doctor as Sources of identity Sources of legitimacy Referrals; Patient lists; Specialization of care Comprehensive care Sources of authority Head of polyclinic Individual doctors; patients Basis of mission Increase referrals Manage patients lists Basis of attention Basic medical treatment; Expanded medical (and Increase service demand managerial) responsibilities Basis of strategy Growth of polyclinic activity Provision of comprehensive and resources care within a practice Logic of investment Budget-based Activity-based Governance Accountability for patient lists Hierarchy and direct control mechanism and for practice management
18 Function Semashko Primary care Estonia Lithuania Financing State budget Mandatory insurance Mandatory insurance Service delivery Differences in the health systems functions Public employees in polyclinics Independent contractors (FDs) Independent contractors (FDs/GPs); salaried employees (GPs); public PHC teams Stewardship Hierarchy Accountability Accountability; hierarchy Ownership Local level Private FDs; municipality Municipality; private GPs Planning Central level Central and local level Central and local level Monitoring & evaluation Direct control Contracting; quality bonus Contracting; (quality bonus)

20 Findings There are several phases of the reform process and different key actors intellectual leaders as theorizing agents Institutional change occurs through logic grafting The change process unfolded differently in the two cases: Different modes of grafting Generated different field configurations
21 Phases of the reform and key actors State: Professionals:
22 5. Grafting as a process for field change Existing logic Grafting Revised logic Theorization Delegitimation Identity Translation Shift in logic Other contexts Legitimacy Translation to practice
23 Comparative analysis of the cases In what does the process differ in the two countries? The starting point for both countries was exactly the same, the Soviet model. The difference was that Estonia did a very clean-cut, comprehensive reform, and I think in Lithuania they just did a piecemeal they didn t really reform, but the new forms of provision emerged and they coexisted with the others, and you have a more plural system. (World Bank expert) Imperial College Business School
24 5. Findings: modes of logic grafting
25 5. Findings: field outcomes of logic grafting Evolving logics Dominance Complement Coexistence Complement Dominance Field configuration Field homogeneity Field heterogeneity Field homogeneity
