Resumen
Introduction: During postmodernism, healthcare environment is facing changes in technology, ;epidemiology and social habits. Medical schools aim to ensure quality standards to educate ;graduates who can face these increasingly accelerated transitions. ; Objective: To propose a quality model with incremental stages useful to rank medical schools in ;Mexico, in order to identify priorities to achieve the vision to sustainably impact on healthcare ;systems. Method: The method applied was qualitative and descriptive. The first phase was the design ;of the incremental quality model in five levels: initiation, development, standardization, innovation ;and sustainability. On a second part, the stages were validated from a group of experts ;(12 executives from medical schools). They decided a method to classify the institutions on the ;incremental quality model stages considering their official quality evidences: regulations, affiliations, ;accreditations and quality awards. As a final step, a document analysis was performed ;to rank medical schools in Mexico according to the previously authorized incremental quality ;model. Results: The model was approved by the experts. From official documents it was found that ;42.8% of medical schools in Mexico have demonstrated the level of standardization, but none ;of them have demonstrated the levels of innovation or sustainability. Conclusions: The stages of the model and the analysis presented here is an initial step for ;medical schools in Mexico to prioritize the challenges of the environment. Some actions to ;encourage institutions to evolve to higher levels of performance are proposed.
