Introduction The lack of understanding how complex integrated care programmes achieve their outcomes due to the acceptable methods leads difficulties in development, implementation, adaptation and scaling up similar interventions. In this study, we evaluate an network, National University Health System (NUHS) Regional (RHS), consisting acute hospitals, step down care, primary providers, social services community partners using a theory-driven realist evaluation approach. This study aims...
<b>Victoria Haldane and colleagues</b> delve into the characteristics of national responses to covid-19. They suggest actionable steps at a level that can guide states achieve independent panel's recommendations for making this last pandemic
To cope with rising demand for healthcare services in Singapore, Regional Health Systems (RHS) comprising of health and social care providers across settings were set up to integrate service delivery. Tasked providing the western region, 2012, National University System (NUHS) – RHS developed a transitional program elderly patients complex needs who consumed high levels hospital resources. Through assessment, development personalized plans coordination, aimed to: (i) improve quality care,...
Faced with a backdrop of an increasing chronic disease burden from ageing global population compounded rising healthcare costs, health systems are required to implement cost-effective, safe and equitable care through efficient service delivery models. One approach achieving this is Starfield's 4Cs primary (PHC), which delineates the key attributes high-performing PHC system that upholds pillars coordination, first contact care, continuity comprehensive care. Therefore, study aims explore...
