Healthcare Agencies II01:17

Healthcare Agencies II

1.1K
There are various healthcare agencies in the United States—some of which are managed by religious institutions and others by different government branches.
Parish nursing is a growing specialty nursing profession that focuses on holistic healthcare, health promotion, and illness prevention. It blends professional nursing practice with a health ministry, focusing on health and healing within the context of a Christian community. Parish nurses serve as health educators, referral sources,...

Secondary Healthcare System01:11

Secondary Healthcare System

2.0K
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...

Tertiary Healthcare System01:21

Tertiary Healthcare System

2.2K
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...

Healthcare Agencies I

1.2K
Healthcare agencies provide healthcare services to people. In the United States, voluntary agencies are often non-profit centers sponsored by donations, grants, or fundraisers. One such organization is Meals on Wheels, which provides meals to the elderly and homebound. The American Heart Association and the American Lung Association are other non-profit community organizations. Doctors and nurses are frequently active members of these organizations, which offer health checks and educational...

Integrated Healthcare System

2.4K
An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

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:

  • Health Informatics
  • Artificial Intelligence in Medicine
  • Healthcare Systems Engineering

Background:

  • Current artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare is often fragmented and task-specific, layered onto existing workflows.
  • A shift towards an AI-first healthcare system, where AI is foundational, is proposed.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the feasibility and requirements of an AI-first healthcare system.
  • To assess the maturity of AI capabilities for system-level integration across various care settings.
  • To identify critical gaps and barriers to implementing AI-first healthcare.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic synthesis of evidence across ambulatory, inpatient, diagnostic, post-acute, and population health settings.
  • Analysis of AI capabilities for narrowly defined tasks versus longitudinal orchestration and cross-setting integration.
  • Identification of key barriers including data fragmentation, workflow misalignment, algorithmic bias, and governance.

Main Results:

  • AI demonstrates strong performance in specific tasks like imaging interpretation and predictive surveillance.
  • Evidence for sustained impact on outcomes, costs, and equity through system-level integration remains limited.
  • Key barriers to AI-first healthcare include data fragmentation, workflow issues, bias, and insufficient evaluation.

Conclusions:

  • Advancing AI-first healthcare necessitates a move from accuracy-centric metrics to system-level outcomes, emphasizing human-enabled AI, interoperability, and equity.
  • AI-first systems can enable proactive, coordinated care across the continuum, exemplified by hypertension management.
  • Operationalizing AI-first care requires robust infrastructure, governance, and continuous validation for safe, scaled implementation.
