ABSTRACT
Globally, healthcare continues to focus on treating disease. More reactive ‘sick care’ than proactive ‘healthcare’! This approach basically leads to intervention only when the health of any person reaches a critical stage, resulting in costly clinical interventions and hospitalizations. Inefficiencies in the delivery of healthcare further contribute to spiraling costs. The unsustainable economic impact of cost of care is driving the focus towards proactive health and care management.
This white paper dives deeper into the transformation from “reactive sick care” to “proactive health care” – the care management framework, its benefits and its nuances.
