Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

6.3K
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...

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...

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.

Current Trends in Nursing II

3.6K
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,...

Secondary Healthcare System01:11

Secondary Healthcare System

2.1K
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...

Area of Science:

  • Health Policy
  • Health Economics
  • Health Technology Assessment

Background:

  • Health Technology Assessment (HTA) is crucial for health policy decisions, especially in Universal Health Coverage (UHC) pursuit.
  • Jordan, a middle-income nation, faces resource constraints and rising health demands, necessitating effective HTA despite progress.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the current state of HTA in Jordan.
  • Identify key facilitators and barriers to HTA implementation.
  • Propose strategies for improving HTA at Jordan University Hospital to influence national health policy.

Main Methods:

  • Review of stakeholder analyses, policy documents, and literature on HTA.
  • Incorporation of lessons learned from comparable international contexts.

Main Results:

  • Jordan has made strides in HTA, with regulatory bodies requiring pharmacoeconomic data and universities offering capacity building.
  • Key challenges include unstable funding, inconsistent transparency and stakeholder engagement, fragmented institutional responsibilities, lack of national guidelines, and limited data infrastructure.
  • Pioneering institutions include the Ministry of Health, Royal Medical Services, and KHCC CDPTA.

Conclusions:

  • A comprehensive strategic plan is essential for Jordan to fully leverage HTA benefits like equitable access and efficient spending.
  • Key steps include formalizing legal frameworks, developing national guidelines, strengthening capacity, improving data systems, securing sustainable funding, and enhancing transparency and stakeholder involvement.
