Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System

3.6K
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...

Secondary Healthcare System

1.6K
Secondary healthcare is offered by a specialist, generally in hospitals or clinics for patients referred by primary healthcare providers. It occurs when a person has an illness or injury that requires specific medical care. Secondary care is often referred to as acute care. Secondary care can range from uncomplicated care to repair a minor laceration or treat a strep throat infection to more complicated emergent care, such as treating a head injury sustained in an automobile accident. Whatever...

Specialized care provided over an extended period is called tertiary care. Usually, a primary or secondary care physician will refer a patient to tertiary care. A patient's maximum physical and mental function is restored in tertiary care, which is caused due to the impact of a chronic illness or condition. Tertiary care aims to achieve the highest level of functioning possible while managing chronic illness. For example, a patient who falls and fractures their hip will need secondary care...

Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Digital Health
  • Global Health

Background:

  • Telemedicine is a vital healthcare delivery method in Southeast Asian (SEA) countries.
  • A systematic review was conducted to analyze telemedicine system utilization in SEA over the last decade (2010-2021).

Approach:

  • Comprehensive literature searches were performed across major databases (PubMed, Embase, Medline, Global Health, CENTRAL).
  • Inclusion criteria focused on studies from SEA countries, published in English between 2010-2021, with full-text availability.
  • Extracted information was evaluated for quality and risk of bias.

Key Points:

  • 37 studies met inclusion criteria, with descriptive studies (29.73%) and teleophthalmology/teleconsultation being prominent.
  • The COVID-19 pandemic spurred increased research, with Singaporean hospitals contributing 49% of studies.
  • Common telemedicine models included hub-and-spoke and store-and-forward, often utilizing free messenger applications for communication.

Conclusions:

  • Telemedicine is a powerful, feasible, safe, effective, and cost-efficient healthcare tool in SEA.
  • Despite demonstrated benefits, robust research is essential to fully explore telemedicine's potential in the region.
