Introduction The current health care system is deficient in many ways and the burden of the health careexpenses on the government is high. The development of the health care system and itsperformance measurement is traditionally done based on the patient volume passed throughthe system for surgery, check up and other care needs. This system is the main cause of thevarious patient dissatisfaction with the system, as the patient experience is not validated inthe review of the performance. This demands a more patient-centric approach that consideredthe patient experience of the health care system and the service provision as one of thepriorities in the future health care (Ferguson et al., 2013; pp.283-287). However, the currentsystem is undeniable traditionally based which makes the implementation of the veritablynew approach to care or care model extremely hard to establish. This, therefore, is based onthe different possibilities for health care that are present (Black, 2013, 346). This essaydiscussed the critically the importance of the change of the healthcare into a better care modelapplication that would not only addresses the inequalities of the health care, patientexperience and the health care quality but also measure the potential improvement of thechange in the care model on the overall healthcare performance and economic burden. This essay starts with a discussion where the need for change has been discussed critically byoutlining the various shortcomings of the current volume-based model and the mitigations ofthe issue possible by the outcome based care model. This has been progressing to teamstructure in the healthcare sector and their need to change in the new model to provideoptimal care. The continuous quality improvement has been discussed as one advantage overthe precious health care models and the best way form implantation is evaluated. Thediscussion of the possible implementations strategies and their impact has been conducted incase of the diverse user based to round off the point in the essay. Thus, the purpose of theessay can be defined as a critical discussion of the possible change to a quality-based modeland its implication on the healthcare system and the development of a continuousimprovement of the care quality. Critically analyse the need for their care setting to achieve the bestpossible outcomes for the service user However, the healthcare provider performance and the patient outcome are linked inexorably.This makes the inclusion of the patient experience an important measure of the healthcare3
performance, which makes them irrelevant to the actual impact of the health on the patientpopulation. The care measures for the diseases are therefore based on each individual medicalcondition that might require specialised attention from different healthcare facilities, whichmakes the current model lacking in providing patient specific care (Jordan et al., 2014,pp.212-218.). The development of the various needs of the individuals and the cases wherethe several diseases affect the same patient the strength of the patient centred model is infiniteas the model based on patient outcome. This not only addresses there various health issuesinto consideration but the impact of one issue among many others need not be detected in thestudy, which is an impossibility under practical conditions. On the other hand, the long-termimpact of the health care for the population can be incorporated in the outcome-based carewith ease, which is the main advantage over the previous systems that was lacking in thisregard (Prasad and Ioannidis, 2014). As it has been stated previously the patients with more than one medical condition are themain concern for the patients as the ageing demographics of the developed countries areindicative of a single patient being affected by more than one health issue. As a result, therise in the patients with multiple health issues is the indication of the needs for a moreefficient system for keeping track of the overall health and mortality of the population andunderstands the actual impact of the health care on the lives of the populace. This is aneffective way as the personally defined health goals would change the healthcare systemradically which currently provides a universal solution for each health issue (Correa et al.,2013, p. 80). The consolidation of the outcomes for the patients can be therefore arranged tomeet all their health issues in the outcome based model and on the other hand, the healthcaresetting would enable better decision-making for patients based on all their medical issues.This not only has the potential to increase the efficiency of the system but also simplifiestracking the changes in the patient health by a collaboration of the various health services thatwork together to addresses the patient goals that would be focused on the individual specificcondition or combination of conditions. Thus, it is evident that the care setting that iscurrently in place is inefficient and increases the complexity by having several simultaneousprocesses for chronic conditions while treating the patient for any specific issue. Another factor that addresses the main issue of the patient-specific care is the healthoutcomes might be inexpensive compared to the disease based care model, which isresponsible for most of the burden on the healthcare system. This makes the system morecapable and increases patient satisfaction despite being cheaper. Thus, the healthcare modelchange seems to be the most reliable way to ensure the patient decision can be used in the4
