Enhancing Healthcare Quality Through Integrated Service Delivery Models

Abstract

Integrated service delivery models have emerged as a key strategy for improving the quality, efficiency, and continuity of healthcare. By fostering collaboration among multidisciplinary teams and streamlining patient pathways, integrated care reduces fragmentation and enhances patient outcomes. This paper examines the importance of integrating healthcare services across various levels of care, emphasizing its role in improving patient safety, reducing delays, and ensuring more coordinated and patient-centered care. The discussion highlights the benefits, challenges, and practical implications of adopting integrated care models within modern healthcare systems.
