Description

Healthcare systems must constantly evolve to meet the growing demands arising from the health needs of populations conditioned by an aging society, multimorbidity, and infectious diseases. In recent years, the Covid-19 pandemic has forced healthcare systems worldwide to increase efforts and implement new solutions. Assessment of coping with the Covid-19 pandemic requires appropriate indicators and methods that consider both multiple criteria with different objectives and the dynamics of performance in successive years. Therefore, our paper presents the developed multi-criteria model for evaluating the healthcare system in terms of coping with the Covid-19 pandemic, which includes nine indicators belonging to five main dimensions. Next, we introduce a novel multi-criteria temporal method called DARIA-TOPSIS. The research results showed that among the countries that coped best with the pandemic concerning the selected criteria are Scandinavian countries such as Denmark, Norway, and Finland and Western European countries such as Luxembourg and Ireland.
