Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System01:26

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...
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.

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...
Ethics in Research01:56

Ethics in Research

Today, scientists agree that good research is ethical in nature and is guided by a basic respect for human dignity and safety. However, this has not always been the case. Modern researchers must demonstrate that the research they perform is ethically sound.
Primary Healthcare Services01:30

Primary Healthcare Services

Primary care promotes wellness and prevents disease. This care includes health promotion, education, protection (such as immunizations), early disease screening, and environmental considerations. Settings providing this type of healthcare include physician offices, public health clinics, school nursing, and community health nursing.
In 1978, international leaders convened in Alma-Ata, Kazakhstan, for what would be a pivotal event in global health. The Alma-Ata Declaration was the first to call...
Introduction To Health Care Delivery System01:18

Introduction To Health Care Delivery System

The healthcare system is constantly changing and complex. Various services are available from different healthcare providers, but gaining access to these services has become challenging for people with limited healthcare insurance. Uninsured people present a challenge to healthcare because they frequently postpone or forego treatment.
The Institute of Medicine (IOM) advocates for a patient-centered, effective, safe, timely, equitable, and effective healthcare system. The National Priorities...

Area of Science:

  • Health Services Research
  • Doctoral Education
  • Competency-Based Education

Background:

  • Health Services Research (HSR) training programs require defined core competencies.
  • Existing HSR curricula vary, necessitating a standardized framework.
  • Accreditation processes highlight the need for clear educational objectives.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe an initial set of core competencies for doctoral-level Health Services Research (HSR) programs.
  • To provide a foundation for dialogue on HSR training objectives and methods.
  • To clarify the unique skills acquired by graduates of HSR programs.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review on HSR competencies.
  • Text analysis of institutional accreditation self-studies from the Council on Education for Public Health.
  • Consensus conference with Health Services Research educators from US institutions.

Main Results:

  • An initial description of broad, core competencies for doctoral HSR programs was developed.
  • Competencies reflect the diverse expertise, interests, and learning preferences of academic HSR programs.
  • The described competencies address essential learning objectives and training methods.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed core competencies offer a starting point for standardizing HSR doctoral education.
  • Further dialogue is encouraged to refine and validate these competencies.
  • Clarifying core competencies will enhance the recognition of HSR training program graduates' unique skills.
