Integrated Care Processes Designed for the Future Healthcare System

摘要

Previous studies showed that a stronger focus on integrated care models is required, targeting at a seamless coordinated care reaching patients even at home and thus establish patient centered and patient driven innovation activities. Such integrated care model is important among others for ensuring traceability that is necessary when problems during treatment occur or in cases of product counterfeiting for ensuring patient safety. The objective of our work is to realize an efficient, continuous care process, considering an optimal, end-to-end treatment path. In this paper, we describe the process how to pave the way for developing technologies for realizing a cross-sector treatment pathway. Following a multi-stakeholder principle and by applying requirement analysis and world cafe methodology we designed first concepts and strategies.
