Different payment models and care delivery models affect the quality of care.
Practice this chapterDifferent payment models and care delivery models affect the quality of care. Public health policy refers to the laws, regulations, programs, behaviors, and decisions implemented in a society to promote public health.
There is a direct correlation from access to health care, the cost of health care, and the quality of health care to health outcomes. When individuals cannot access health care services, health outcomes, including maintenance of chronic disease processes, are compromised
health outcomes — the results of a health intervention. payment models — mechanism by which health care services are established and paid for. care delivery models — delivery strategies that prescribe the specific ways in which professionals work together to provide health care services. public health policy — laws, regulations, programs, behaviors, and decisions implemented in a society to promote public health.
