Rural providers must redefine their role in the changing health care system to include a more integrated approach to health care delivery. The rural provider must develop integrated pathways to coordinate all medical, behavior, and social services to ensure that appropriate services are available, locally or through linkages with other providers, for the population. The integrated pathway must manage care across the continuum of services and coordinate decisions occurring at the point of service.
农村医疗服务提供者必须在不断变化的医疗体系中重新定义自己的角色,以采用更综合的医疗服务提供方式。农村医疗服务提供者必须制定综合路径,以协调所有医疗、行为和社会服务,确保为当地居民或通过与其他医疗服务提供者的联系,提供适当的服务。综合路径必须管理整个服务连续体中的医疗服务,并协调在服务点做出的决策。
