Area Of Science
- Gerontology
- Public Health Policy
- Healthcare Management
Background
- Korea is rapidly aging, necessitating advanced care models.
- The World Health Organization's Integrated Care for Older People (ICOPE) framework offers a solution.
- Limited data exists on ICOPE's national policy alignment and scalability in Korea.
Purpose Of The Study
- To evaluate the policy relevance and feasibility of implementing the ICOPE framework in Korea.
- To compare ICOPE with existing Korean integrated care initiatives.
- To identify gaps and inform future policy development for elder care.
Main Methods
- A three-round Delphi survey was conducted with 31 experts in aging and health policy.
- 32 ICOPE implementation items were assessed for relevance and feasibility across micro, meso, and macro levels.
- Results were benchmarked against Korean programs like the Seoul Health Companion Center.
Main Results
- Most ICOPE elements, especially micro-level ones like primary care frailty screening, showed high relevance and feasibility (e.g., CVR=0.72).
- Macro-level components, including digital infrastructure and financing, presented significant implementation challenges.
- Broad compatibility was found between ICOPE and Korea's current integrated care strategies, particularly at the micro level.
Conclusions
- The ICOPE framework aligns well with Korea's micro-level integrated care efforts.
- Significant gaps in macro-level implementation, such as digital infrastructure and financing, require attention.
- Findings provide actionable insights for policy design, governance integration, and scaling up integrated care in Korea.

In the United States, 25% of the general population suffers from one or another type of disability. Ambulatory disabilities, or mobility impairments, represent the most common subcategory, comprising 14% of the country's populace. Different mobility-assistive devices, ranging from canes to scooters, enable increased independence and improved quality of life for those suffering from...
Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.
Surveys allow researchers to gather data from larger samples than may be afforded by...
The lymphodepletive and immunomodulatory effects of chemotherapy and radiation standard of care can be leveraged to enhance the antitumor efficacy of T cell immunotherapy. We outline a method for generating EGFRvIII-specific chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells and administering them in the context of glioblastoma standard of care.
Surveying is the art and science of mapping the earth's surface. It involves measuring distances, angles in horizontal or vertical directions, and levels to understand the shape and size of land features. Surveying techniques are essential for various tasks, such as identifying the levels of a land area with reference to a specific point, and mapping undulations and water bodies.There are two main types of surveying: plane surveys and geodetic surveys. Plane surveys assume the earth is flat,...
Hypoxia simulation in humans has usually been performed by inhaling hypoxic gas mixtures. For this study, apneic divers were used to simulate dynamic hypoxia in humans. Additionally, physiological changes in desaturation and re-saturation kinetics were evaluated with non-invasive tools such as Near-Infrared-Spectroscopy (NIRS) and peripheral oxygenation saturation...
