The Bologna process aims to create a European Higher Education Area by 2010, which is connected with great changes in the structures of the university studies. The one of main modifications is a new program of academic courses in all specializations. Main aim of the article is an attempt to evaluate the possibilities of realizing the agenda (included in the teaching standards) in comparison to the time needed to achieve it. In many cases the solutions seems accidental and the assumptions contained in the standardization documents impossible to fulfill.

Mathematics and physics are based on two numbers: Archimedes’ constant  = 3,14… and e = 2,71… – Napier’s constant. The former reflects the ratio of the perimeter of a figure to its diameter and maximizes the area, given the diameter. The solutions are the disk and the circle. The latter represents the accumulated capital paid by a bank after one year from investing one unit of money at an annual interest rate of 100% under continuous compounding. The ratio of the disk’s perimeter to its diameter, i.e. , governs omnipresent cyclical motion, whereas Napier’s constant determines natural growth – exponential growth. Nature mixes both kinds of behaviour: there is equilibrium – vortices, and the cobweb model, dynamic growth. Our general remarks are corroborated by the theory of linear differential equations with constant coefficients. Social life – democracy and quality – despite the deceptive chaos of accidental behaviour, is also governed by a beautiful numeral law. This social number is λ = ⅔ whose notation is derived from the Greek  meaning crowd, people, assembly. The social number, Łyko’s number, is defined by the fundamental theorem. If each alternative of a maximal relation of a given profile has its frequency in this profile greater than ⅔, then such relation is a group preference. This sufficient condition separates a decisional chaos from a stable economic and voting order – the preference. Also our everyday language makes use of  . We distinguish with it upper states – elitist ones, from ordinary standards. The ⅔ rule implies that in each group one third of the population prevails, while the rest are just background actors. The number  also appears, a bit of a surprise, in classical theorems of geometry.

Well-being is a quality, and each quality has three natural states: a little, moderately, a lot. Well-being resembles happiness and health. When we have well-being, we usually are not aware of it. Certainly, we all want to live a life of well-being. While we do not specify the notion of happiness so as to avoid bad luck and not to show off with it, we do not define well-being either. It is a blessed state of existing together with nature and with people. Permanent well-being is equated with stable well-being. It is achievable only in a traditional society, where everyone knows what to do and gets it done as expected. Well-being also is associated with social Darwinism; population has well-being when it grows exponentially. Malthusian equation y py ′ = can be seen as a precise definition of well-being. Well-being is a holistic term that applies to a whole community as the quality of life, often equivalent to standard of living. There is no well-being on a desert island. Well-being implies work productiveness and indicates that economy is more efficient than social needs. Well-being may also be expressed by utility functions. Population’s average utility defines social well-being. Each utility function is linked to preference. If a population’s profile satisfies the ⅔ rule, then a maximal relation is preference; in fact, the very preference is social well-being. Stability of wellbeing in Markov matrix 2 1 3 3 1 1 1 3 3 3 1 2 3 3 0 0 M   =         i s represented by transitions from the states: low being, being and good being, respectively, to these states. If the probabilities of transitions are as those in the matrix M, then the population is divided into three equal parts at a limit state. There are always poor people, normal or happy people and rich people. Well-being may also stand for a state of the economy – a basket of goods at which the utility function takes the maximum. Well-being is definitely related to work organization and economic situation. The world today enjoys well-being, because the net global wealth has doubled since 2000, reaching $263 trillion in 2013. The assets therefore increased exponentially. Yet, one should consider the lilies of the field, and how they grow, look at the birds of the air and think about who feeds them. The idea of wellbeing is more spiritual than material. It is in vain that you go late to rest and get up early – your effort will not gain much. Because God gives sleep to those he loves. Life is the only value affirmed by Nietzsche. Being represents a complete good, whereas not being is evil. If you exist, you have well-being. There is no well-being without equilibrium and full employment. Well-being can be measured by an index W n k n = + where n denotes the number of new firms established in a given year, and k – the number of closed firms. The nearer to one is this index, the better. Well-being is by no means total power, fortune and pleasure. Well-being is a state of soul, not a state of body. It is a function of organization and self-organization, a variety of stoicism.

The paper deals with an evaluation of the quality of services provided by healthcare organizations. First, an index representing a patient’s health condition is described, then its changes before and after being treated by a given entity are employed as a criterion to assess the operations of this entity. The index of a patient’s health condition is based on the theory of survival analysis, while a model of random effects is used to determine the quality of services based on health value added.

W artykule został podjęty temat oceny jakości usług jednostek służby zdrowia. W pierwszej kolejności opisano wskaźnik służący do określenia zdrowotnej kondycji pacjenta, a następnie jego zmiany w okresie przed skorzystaniem z usługi i po skorzystaniu z niej. Użyto go jako kryterium oceny pracy danej jednostki. Wskaźnik oceniający stan zdrowia pacjenta skonstruowano, wykorzystując teorię analizy przeżycia, a do określenia jakości usług na podstawie zdrowotnej wartości dodanej posłużono się modelem efektów losowych.
