A Proposal for a Unifying Model of Quality Management of Healthcare
1IMIA Telehealth Working Group.
Abstract:
For quality management of healthcare, various ISO-standards are important such as ISO 9001 (quality management systems), ISO 13940 (concepts of continuity of care) and ISO 21298 (functional and structural roles). For concurrent, integrated use of the standards, this paper proposes a unifying conceptual model that integrates essential elements of the standards. The model may be useful to clarify basic concepts such as collaboration, systems-and-structures and realization, as well as the interrelations between these concepts.
