Integrated Healthcare System01:20

Integrated Healthcare System

An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System

At the different levels of the healthcare system, we see varying methods of healthcare used. These methods include managed care systems, case management, and primary healthcare.
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is limited...

Nursing Clinical Information System

Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS)
A Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS) is a specialized type of healthcare information system tailored to meet the unique needs of nursing practice. It incorporates the principles of nursing informatics to streamline information management and improve the quality of care delivery.
Critical attributes of NCIS include:
Interdisciplinary Care: The Health Care Team-I01:21

Interdisciplinary Care: The Health Care Team-I

An interdisciplinary team includes many healthcare professionals working together and utilizing their skills, knowledge, and expertise to provide holistic and quality patient care.
Physicians
The physician's primary responsibility is to diagnose illness and direct the medical or surgical treatment of the condition. The authority to admit patients to a healthcare agency or institution and practice care within that setting is granted to physicians by the healthcare agency or institution itself.
Continuing Care01:25

Continuing Care

Continuing care describes the variety of health, personal, and social services provided over a prolonged period. The need for continuing care is increasing because people are living longer. Many people do not have families or others to care for them. Continuing care is mainly for patients who are disabled, functionally dependent, or suffering from a terminal disease. It is available within institutional settings or in homes. Examples include nursing centers or facilities, assisted living,...

Interdisciplinary Care: The Health Care Team-II

An interdisciplinary team includes many healthcare professionals working together and utilizing their skills, knowledge, and expertise to provide holistic and quality patient care. Here are a few more healthcare professionals.
Physical Therapist
A physical therapist (PT) aims to restore function or prevent additional impairment in a patient following an injury or disease. Massage, heat, cold, water, sonar waves, exercises, and electrical stimulation are some treatments used by PTs to treat...

Area of Science:

  • Primary Healthcare Research
  • Health Systems Management
  • Chronic Disease Management

Background:

  • Australia's healthcare system faces challenges meeting the needs of an ageing population.
  • An urgent search for solutions has led to concepts like coordinated care, often assumed but poorly defined.
  • Lack of a clear definition hinders effective implementation of coordinated care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and identify the core attributes of coordinated care.
  • To facilitate a shared definition of coordinated care within the primary care context.
  • To address the ambiguity surrounding the concept of coordinated care.

Main Methods:

  • A conceptual review of literature on coordinated care in chronic disease.
  • Searched MEDLINE and CINAHL databases using terms from primary healthcare experts.
  • Included 20 studies after applying specific inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Main Results:

  • Identified key attributes of coordinated care and proposed a definitional statement.
  • Defined coordinated care in primary healthcare as systematic, responsive, and supportive care for complex chronic needs.
  • Highlighted reliance on concepts like partnerships, networking, and person-centred practice, often superficially discussed.

Conclusions:

  • Coordinated care requires a clear, shared definition for effective primary healthcare delivery.
  • The identified attributes provide a framework for implementing and evaluating coordinated care.
  • Further research is needed to explore practical implementation strategies for coordinated care concepts.
