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...

International Nursing Organizations II

The World Health Organization (WHO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations based in Geneva. The WHO has many initiatives that center around health. Primarily, they lead global efforts to expand universal health coverage using science-based policies and programs. They are also responsible for shaping health research agendas and developing norms and standards.
The WHO provides expert team support, including funding, vaccines, testing, and treatment tools at the country level to fight...
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...

International Nursing Organizations I

International Nursing Organization (ICN) is a global union of national nurses' organizations. Individual nurses can be a part of ICN through member organizations. Each member organization strives to ensure quality nursing care, sound health policies, the advancement of nursing knowledge, respect for the profession, and a satisfied and competent nursing workforce.
ICN member organizations work to advance the field of nursing and healthcare via policies, partnerships, lobbying, professional...
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...

Methods of Documentation VI: Case Management Model

The case management model is a multidisciplinary approach that involves healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines, such as physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, and pharmacists, working collaboratively to address the various needs of patients. Each healthcare professional brings unique expertise and perspectives, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the patient's condition and tailoring treatment plans accordingly.
For example, a patient with a chronic illness...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Health Services Management
  • Healthcare Policy

Background:

  • Significant horizontal expansion of health services in Libya over four decades.
  • Improvements observed in morbidity and mortality, particularly for infectious diseases.
  • National performance indicators reveal an underperforming health system.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss aspects of the Libyan health system and its current status.
  • To identify areas of weakness within the Libyan health system.
  • To propose strategies for overcoming failures and improving health services.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of the current status and weaknesses of the Libyan health system.
  • Discussion of essential planning steps for health system improvement.
  • Emphasis on adopting newer management approaches.

Main Results:

  • Despite service expansion, the Libyan health system underperforms.
  • Proper planning is crucial for overcoming current failures.
  • Key planning steps include problem definition, needs assessment, resource surveying, objective setting, and administrative action.

Conclusions:

  • The Libyan health system requires strategic planning for improvement.
  • Adoption of management-by-objectives and risk-management is recommended.
  • A shift from crisis-management to proactive planning is essential for future success.
