Assessing the potential of a diabetes self-management technology intervention for underserved adultsHeitkemper, Elizabeth Mary January 2017 (has links)
The dissertation aims to examine the potential for diabetes self-management education (DSME) technology interventions to be used by underserved adults in routine clinical practice and issues regarding its use that may be unique to this population. In Chapter One, the problems of providing sufficient access and appropriate DSME to underserved adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is introduced and their significance is described. In Chapter Two, a systematic review of the literature and meta-analysis synthesizes data from 3,257 subjects that participated in 13 randomized controlled trials that examined the effect of health information technology (HIT) DSME interventions on glycemic control in medically underserved adults. Chapter Three presents the general and technology-related characteristics of the urban, underserved sample of adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus from eight federally qualified health centers who participated in the Mobile Diabetes Detective (MoDD) randomized controlled trial. It also describes the technology training required to support use and engagement during the MoDD intervention period. In Chapter Four, the potential for broad dissemination of a novel HIT DSME intervention, MoDD, into everyday clinical practice is examined using the RE-AIM framework (Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation and Maintenance). In Chapter Five the findings of these studies are summarized and the overarching conclusions are presented, which include the strengths, limitations and implications for practice, policy and future.

Avaliação da qualidade dos serviços hospitalares com a adaptação do modelo SERVQUAL em dois hospitais de Bauru - SP /Moraes, Dorival Russo de. January 2012 (has links)
Orientador: Manoel Henrique Salgado / Banca: Regina Celia Baptista Belluzzo / Banca: Jose de Souza Rodrigues / Resumo: A área de saúde pública e privada, segmento de serviços, em 2012 consumiu 8% (oito por cento) do Produto Interno Bruto Brasileiro, apesar desse volume de recursos direcionados para a área da saúde, em comparação com outros países, o investimento deveria receber um aporte adicional de um terço do valor atual.

Predictors of Primary Care Physicians Practicing in Medically Underserved and Rural Areas of IndianaBellinger, Nathan 01 October 2009 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / Purpose: This study examines whether Indiana physicians’ choices to practice in medically underserved and rural areas of Indiana are associated with select physician characteristics. Methods: Physician data were gathered from the American Medical Association Physician Masterfile. Analysis was limited to primary care physicians currently practicing, whose birth city and/or state were known (if American born) and whose current practice location could be matched to an Indiana ZIP Code. The
underserved and rural areas and physician data were mapped using ArcGIS. Chi square and logistic regression analyses were performed to identify significant associations between the physician characteristics and choice of practice location. Results: In
instances where a physician was born in a county that fell below its state’s median
income level in the decade of birth, there is a significant likelihood of future choice to
practice in underserved and rural areas. Attending a medical school in the Midwest and region of birth (subdivided by state) were proven to have no predictive value.
Conclusions: This result, when compared with other studies that have found physician hometown to be a predictive factor, seems to confirm and strengthen the argument that factors in a physician’s past, including social and economic setting of his or her
upbringing, influence choice to practice in underserved and/or rural areas.

Previous issue date: 2015-04-07 / Economists and policymakers have long been concerned with increasing the supply of health professionals in rural and remote areas. This work seeks to understand which factors influence physicians’ choice of practice location right after completing residency. Differently from previous papers, we analyse the Brazilian missalocation and assess the particularities of developing countries. We use a discrete choice model approach with a multinomial logit specification. Two rich databases are employed containing the location and wage of formally employed physicians as well as details from their post-graduation. Our main findings are that amenities matter, physicians have a strong tendency to remain in the region they completed residency and salaries are significant in the choice of urban, but not rural, communities. We conjecture this is due to attachments built during training and infrastructure concerns.

Rural Interprofessional Health Care Education: a Study of Student PerspectivesStilp, Curt Carlton 05 June 2017 (has links)
As the cost for health care delivery increases, so does the demand for access to care. However, individuals in a rural community often do not have access to the care they need. Shortages of rural health care professionals are an ever-increasing problem. The Affordable Care Act of 2010 sought to increase health care access by focusing on team-based care delivery. Thus, the need to educate health care students in the fundamentals of team-based practice has led to an increased emphasis on Interprofessional Education (IPE). While past research focused on urban IPE, a literature gap exists for the effects of a rural team-based educational experience on practice location decisions. This study examined how rural IPE influenced health profession students' perspectives of what it means to be a member of a rural health care team and explored what factors go into making decisions of where to live and provide care. Motivational Theory provided the framework for a mixed methods approach with data from student reflective journaling and a post-experience Q sort. Analysis yielded important understandings about the impact of rural IPE. Accordingly, having a rural IPE experience provided positive motivation for returning after graduation. Further, the time spent in rural IPE generated understandings of what it means to live and provide care to a rural community. One important new discovery gained is the clinical setting is not where most IPE took place. As a result, social interactions with fellow students and community members achieved the goals of rural IPE. Despite these influential findings, noted barriers to genuine rural IPE persisted. In the end, students, educators, and rural health care professionals need to be aware of the multiple factors that guide decisions of where to live and provide care.
