What does it mean when we say our population will be older? It means there will be more demand on healthcare because older people are sick more often… this also means it is a different pattern of healthcare

Ensure affordability of basic healthcare• Heavy subvention, universal coverage for basic services, with access to
higher levels of services based on willingness to pay
Instill individual responsibility• Patients expected to co-pay part of medical expenses• Risk-pool for catastrophic illnesses, without undermining the need for
individual responsibility and patients‟ desire for choice.

Singapore‟s Healthcare is Developed in Silos…
Primary Care• Mainly Private• Fee for service
Acute Hospital Care• Mainly Government• Per Episode Charging
Intermediate Long Term Care• Mainly Voluntary Welfare Organisations• Per Diem Charging

A Need for Change
1. Increase demand for acute care
2. Intermittent access to
community services worsens
health
4. Frequent readmissions
3. Primary and ILTC services not well-
integrated and undeveloped
With an ageing population and increasing demand on healthcare services…
The hospital-centric model is no longer suitable and a more integrated healthcare system is required.

Many Definitions of Integrated Care
“…a coherent set of methods and models on the funding,administrative, organizational, service delivery and clinical levelsdesigned to create connectivity, alignment and collaboration within andbetween the cure and care sectors…[to]…enhance quality of care andquality of life, consumer satisfaction and system efficiency for patientswith complex problems cutting across multiple services, providers andsettings.” (Kodner & Spreeuwenberg, 2002)
“…a concept bringing together inputs, delivery, management andorganization of services related to diagnosis, treatment, care,rehabilitation and health promotion…[as]…a means to improve theservices in relation to access, quality, user satisfaction and efficiency.”(Gröne & Garcia-Barbero, 2001)

“…the search to connect the healthcare system (acute, primarymedical, and skilled) with other human service systems (e.g., long-term care, education, and vocational and housing services) to improveclinical outcomes (clinical, satisfaction, and efficiency).” (Leutz, 1999)
“…the methods and type of organisation which will provide the mostcost-effective preventative and caring services to those with thegreatest health needs and which will ensure continuity of care and co-ordination between different services.” (Ovretveit, 1998)

1. You can integrate some of the services for all of the people or all of the services for some of the people, but you can't integrate all the services for all the people.
2. Integration costs before it pays.
3. Your integration is my fragmentation.
4. You can't integrate a square peg and a round hole.
22
9 Laws of Integration(Leutz W, 1999 and 2005)
5. The one who integrates calls the tune.
6. All integration is local.
7. Keep it simple, stupid.
8. Don't try to integrate everything.
9. Integration isn't built in a day.

Making Chronic Care Affordable
“Medisave” Use for Outpatient Care• Since Oct 2006, MOH allows the use of “Medisave” for payment of
outpatient care of 6 common diseases:– Diabetes / Hypertension / Dyslipidaemia / Stroke– Asthma / COPD– Depression / Schizophrenia
• Patients who participate in CDM programme can use Medisave tohelp pay medical bills at outpatient level
– Deductible– Copayment– Annual Withdrawal Limit (S$400 from 1 Jan 2012)– Patient Registration and Certification– Use at GPs, SOCs and polyclinics

Effectiveness of disease-management programs for improving diabetes care: a meta-analysisC Pimouguet, M Le Goff, R Thiébaut, JF Dartigues, C Helmer. CMAJ 10.1503/cmaj.091786
Meta-analysis of RCTs Assess the effectiveness of disease management programs for
improving glycaemic control in adults with diabetes mellitus Better outcome when:
Disease manager was able to start or modify treatment with or without prior approval from the primary care physician
greater improvement in HbA1C levels (standardized mean difference –0.60 vs. –0.28 in trials with no approval to do so; p < 0.001).
High frequency of contact significant reduction in HbA1C levels compared with low-frequency contact programs (standardized mean difference –0.56 v. –0.30, p = 0.03)

Transitional care can be defined as care that is required to facilitate a shift from one disease stage and/or place of care to another
Transitional care is based on a comprehensive plan of care and the availability of health care practitioners who are well-trained in chronic care and have current information about the patient's goals, preferences, and clinical status. It includes logistical arrangements, education of the patient and family, and coordination among the health professionals involved in the transition. Transitional care, which encompasses both the sending and the receiving aspects of the transfer, is essential for persons with complex care needs.(Source: Coleman EA, Boult CE on behalf of the American Geriatrics Society Health Care Systems Committee. Improving the Quality of Transitional Care for Persons with Complex Care Needs. Journal of the American Geriatrics Society. 2003;51(4):556-557.)

ACTION Teams
Assess the needs of elderly patients and facilitate their transition into appropriate care upon hospital discharge
65 care coordinators in 5 RHs, 1 Tertiary Centre & 3 Community Hospitals
More than 10,000 patients recruited since 2008
Average length of stay (bed days) reduced by 43% and 82% of cases were able to discharge back into home

The Need for ACTION Teams - Why
Repeated hospital admissions due to lack for appropriate care.
Before
After
Disorganised medications and from multiple sources, often leading to double dosing
Living environment in disarray, compounding to health conditions

PACH is a clinical management model targeted at the management of patients requiring higher acuity of care
Target population: Home bound with complex chronic diseases or exacerbation of diseases Eg- Frail or elderly with mild to moderate infections, patients requiring short
term intravenous/ intravascular antibiotics, patients with exacerbations of chronic conditions (COLD, heart failure)
Project Objectives: Reduce readmissions/ ED re-attendences for the target population Support providers of community nurse service in handling more acute
patients in the home

Started in the 70s in San Francisco, USA
Objectives of PACE are to: Delay institutionalisation and reduce utilisation of acute healthcare services Enables frail elderly to receive the care that they need in the community that they
are accustomed to
Delivering all needed medical and supportive services, (via capitated funding model) the program is able to provide the entire continuum of care and services to seniors with chronic care needs, while maintaining their independence in the community for as long as possible.
Interdisciplinary team based approach to caring for the participant
Clearly shown that in a debilitated, frail, elderly population, with whom health care costs are expected to be high, a combination of team care, managed health care and care coordination can lead to better outcomes and reduced cost over time (Hirth et al, 2009)

The different “fragments” in the healthcare industry, including the different departments in an organisation, are usually working in “silos”.
An uphill task to convince the different fragmented bodies to change their “old” working style to work and collaborate together in an integrated eco-system.
Many are still more concerned over the short-term benefits such as their “bottomline”, than the long-term benefits which care Integration heralds, especially when more effort and monetary investments are required from them.

Challenges in Care Integration
![Page 96: A Framework and Working Model for Integration of Caredocs2.health.vic.gov.au/docs/doc/472EDF0CA1589182CA257906001… · Bridging gaps between tertiary, secondary and primary care](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022050214/5f5fdc707da65d238b3dfa3a/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
96
Healthcare is complex and fragmented, and hence a multitude of solutions and approaches are required to tackle the growing challenge of chronic diseases and the ageing population.
A recurring key piece of the solution is collaborations and fostering long term partnerships between providers and patients.
Technology is an enabler and will factor more and more in time to come. No “magic bullet” technological solution.
Best financing model is one which fosters personal responsibility and ownership of care by patients.
Develop a mindset of innovation and continuous improvement. The “new age” healthcare professional must understand how to
leverage on technology and interpret relevant data. Primary care, secondary care and tertiary care all need to be linked
and integrated by pathways and through technology. Prevention is better than cure!
