Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

5.6K
The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.
Cost Containment
Payment for healthcare services has historically promoted adoption of costly and often unnecessary or inefficient...

Methods of Documentation VI: Case Management Model

559
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...

Current Trends in Nursing II

1.2K
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:

  • Neurology
  • Health Services Research
  • Digital Health

Background:

  • People with multiple sclerosis (PwMS) face significant barriers accessing care, including geographic limitations, financial strain, physical challenges, and healthcare inequities.
  • These barriers contribute to diagnostic delays, treatment interruptions, and substantial economic burdens for PwMS.
  • Telemedicine presents a potential solution to mitigate these access challenges.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the potential of telemedicine to reduce barriers in accessing multiple sclerosis (MS) care.
  • To assess the impact of telemedicine on travel burden and indirect costs for PwMS.
  • To highlight the need for further investigation into the longitudinal effects of telemedicine on MS care access.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing cross-sectional studies on telemedicine use in MS care.
  • Analysis of reported reductions in travel burden and indirect costs associated with telemedicine visits.
  • Identification of gaps in current research regarding longitudinal telemedicine care.

Main Results:

  • Telemedicine effectively overcomes geographic barriers by reducing the need for travel to neurologists and MS Centers.
  • Studies indicate telemedicine significantly lowers indirect costs for PwMS, including expenses for parking, gas, tolls, and lost wages.
  • Evidence suggests telemedicine can alleviate financial and logistical challenges associated with in-person appointments.

Conclusions:

  • Telemedicine offers a promising approach to improve healthcare access for people with multiple sclerosis (PwMS).
  • It demonstrably reduces travel burdens and associated economic costs for patients.
  • Further research is warranted to establish the long-term benefits and direct impact of continuous telemedicine care on MS patient outcomes and access.
