Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System

3.8K
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...

Primary Healthcare Services01:30

Primary Healthcare Services

1.8K
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...

Area of Science:

  • Urban Science
  • Public Health
  • Environmental Health

Background:

  • Sustainable urban development goals have significant, yet underexplored, links to human health and wellbeing.
  • Recent discussions in urban science and sustainability have not sufficiently addressed the intricate relationship between urban environments and health outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To comprehensively elaborate on the multiple interlinkages between urban sustainability and human health.
  • To map existing research gaps at the intersection of health and urban sustainability sciences.
  • To define urbanization, review health-urbanization evidence, and propose new research approaches for complex urban systems.

Main Methods:

  • A novel, comprehensive knowledge synthesis approach.
  • Review of concepts related to urbanization and urban development.
  • Examination of evidence linking human health with urbanization, urbanicity, and cities.

Main Results:

  • Detailed elaboration of the multiple links between urban sustainability and human health.
  • Identification of cross-cutting issues and research gaps in health and urban sustainability.
  • Specific actions proposed for promoting health through sustainable urban development, including integrated planning and evidence-informed policy-making.

Conclusions:

  • Effective governance and equity-driven planning are crucial for achieving sustainable, healthy, and just urban development.
  • Integrated planning, evidence-informed policy-making, and policy monitoring are key actions to promote health.
  • This synthesis provides valuable insights for researchers and practitioners across multiple disciplines, particularly in health sciences and urban planning.
