Design principles for Yishun Zone Regional Population Health System's future-state integrated service delivery system.
S/N | Existing Practices, Structures and Mental Models | Design Principles for Future-State Integrated Service Delivery System |
---|---|---|
1 | Medicalized approach that addresses clinical issues when disease or crisis sets in, for patients who seek treatment at healthcare institutions | Biopsychosocial (68), needs-(69) and assets-based (70) approach to well-being and health throughout a persons’ life-course, for the entire Yishun Zone population |
2 | Services provision primarily by healthcare professionals using a clinical and service quality approach | Residents, caregivers and communities drive self-care, and also participate in care planning and co-creation of care delivery with providers that employ strength-based (71) and relationship-based approaches |
3 | Individual provider needs assessments and care plans formulation | Single integrated needs assessment and care plan to meet residents’ needs |
4 | Interactions among providers and healthcare institutions are case by case, professional and operational | Interactions among providers and care institutions are based on population needs, and are organizational and strategic |
5 | Care episode defined from time-of-arrival to time-of-departure from care systems defined by physical boundaries of institutions | Care episode defined from time-of-identification to time-of-resolution of needs, and system boundaries defined by types of needs |
6 | Coordination achieves efficiency and effectiveness of services delivery within institutions | Coordination achieves efficiency and effectiveness of care systems in discovering and generating health assets while meeting care needs, across all sites and transitions of care |
7 | Providers and institutions optimize institutional outcomes and their own cost-per-unit of services delivery | Carers and institutions form an integrated care organization and jointly optimize resident-centered outcomes and value for populations |
