ABSTRACT Screening is an effective method for detecting and preventing acute and chronic diseases. In the United States healthcare tends to be provided after someone has become unwell and medical attention is sought. Poor health habits play a large part in the pathogenesis and progression of many common, chronic diseases. Conversely, healthy habits are very effective at preventing many diseases. The common causes of chronic disease and prevention are discussed with a primary focus on the role of health professionals to provide preventive healthcare and to educate patients to recognize risk factors and to avoid a chronic disease. nursece4less.com nursece4less.com nursece4less.com nursece4less.com 1 Policy Statement This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the policies of NurseCe4Less.com and the continuing nursing education requirements of the American Nurses Credentialing Center's Commission on Accreditation for registered nurses.

  • PRIMARY CARE SECTOR OVERVIEW June 2016
    PRIMARY CARE SECTOR OVERVIEW June 2016 Investment banking services are provided by Harris Williams LLC, a registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA and SIPC, and Harris Williams & Co. Ltd, which is and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. Harris Williams & Co. is a trade name under which Harris Williams LLC and Harris Williams & Co. Ltd conduct business. TABLE OF CONTENTS I PRIMARY CARE SECTOR OVERVIEW II APPENDIX: SELECT MARKET PARTICIPANTS PRIMARY CARE SECTOR OVERVIEW The delivery and coordination of primary care is taking on renewed and increasing importance as the system’s gatekeeper in the evolving U.S. healthcare landscape. Primary care accounts for nearly $250 billion of annual industry revenue and over 55% of total office-based physician visits1,2 . However, the systematic under-investment of this integral component of the healthcare system has created a number of well publicized challenges, including: • Insufficient supply of new primary care physicians from medical school • Lower compensation vis-à-vis other specialties • Demands of an aging population outstripping system resources • Under-supply of primary care to rural areas . As the initial contact point for patients, the primary care system will increasingly function as the gatekeeper for care coordination and patient referrals for public and private payors and for healthcare systems . Therefore primary care now fills a critical role in the transition from fee-for-service (“FFS”) to value-based care . To meet these challenges new, innovative primary care practice models have emerged to address care coordination, access and quality of care, and cost, including the following four models highlighted in this report: • Medicare Advantage/Managed Medicaid • Employer Sponsored Health Clinics • Retail Clinics • Concierge Clinics .

Conditions such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes are making more people sick every day and will continue to do so without behavior change and self-care. As rates of chronic disease continue to rise, self-care practices will become increasingly important to the nation’s health. This report – developed by Samueli Integrative Health Programs in concert with The Harris Poll – demonstrates the importance of self-care to patients’ health and well-being, explains how to implement self-care services in the healthcare care setting, and discusses the current trends in both doctors’ and patients’ self-care beliefs and practices.

  • How Primary Care Produces Better Outcomes: a Logic Model
    How Primary Care Produces Better Outcomes: A Logic Model James W. Mold, MD, MPH Department of Family and Preventive Medicine University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center Oklahoma City, Oklahoma Roger I. Lienke, MD Oklahoma City, Oklahoma Brendan Drew, BS Boulder, Colorado Word Count: Key Words: Primary care, logic model, patient-centered medical home, outcomes, attributes 1 ABSTRACT Context: Greater access to primary care is associated with lower health care costs and better health outcomes. The reasons for this are not entirely clear. In an attempt to clarify the links between primary care and outcomes, we constructed a “logic model” based upon a systematic review of the literature and our clinical experience. Methods: We reviewed all publications from a search of the English language literature from 1966 to the present using the search term, “primary care,” plus potentially relevant references from their bibliographies. We then constructed lists of desired outcomes and intermediate outcomes and summarized the evidence supporting the links between them. The principal attributes of primary care were derived from the Institute of Medicine’s 1996 report.1 To identify and categorize the mechanisms leading from attributes to intermediate outcomes, we relied upon our own clinical experience, the published literature, and from others in the field. Findings: We identified 6 primary attributes (accessibility, coordination, sustained care, comprehensiveness, partnership, and person-centeredness) and two encompassing constructs (integration and accountability) that constitute primary care. Proposed causal links to the 8 desired outcomes pass through 14 mechanisms and 14 intermediate outcomes. Conclusions: We hope this model will stimulate further discussion among policy-makers, researchers, educators, and clinicians working to strengthen primary care, the most logical foundation of the health care system.

  • KDHE Guidance for COVID-19 Non-Congregate Housing Updated May 28, 2021
    KDHE Guidance for COVID-19 Non-Congregate Housing Updated May 28, 2021 Introduction Isolation of COVID-19 positive persons and persons under investigation (PUIs) is necessitated as part of a community mitigation strategy with the current pandemic. Positive cases and PUIs are identified through testing and contact investigations. Recommendation about how to isolate is made by the health department and if is determined that a patient cannot effectively isolate in their current home, then alternative housing is offered. We recognize that these patients will have ongoing needs in addition to food, shelter, safety that includes management of their chronic medical conditions as well as monitoring of COVID-19 disease, specifically for resolution of symptoms and release from isolation, as well as watchfulness for deterioration that may require hospitalization. Isolation and quarantine guidance may differ for people who are fully vaccinated. See Isolation and Quarantine FAQ. https://www.coronavirus.kdheks.gov/DocumentCenter/View/134/Isolation--Quarantine- Guidance-and-FAQs-PDF---3-15-21. This document aims to outline a specific framework to accomplish this medical monitoring function. Staffing A clinician (Physician, APRN, RN) is tasked with maintaining contact with a cohort of patients in isolation housing. Ideally, the same clinicians, rotating call, would follow the same cohort for continuity, with additional clinicians added as more patients enter housing. A clinician will need sufficient knowledge to understand a wide variety of medical conditions and their management as well as skill in observation and medical assessment to identify worsening symptoms or deteriorating vital signs. There will be a designated on-call clinician available at all hours.
