Increasing prevalence of chronic medical and behavioral health conditions boosts adoption of collaborative care models. Improving reimbursement landscape and emphasis on value-based care are incentivizing healthcare providers and organizations to implement collaborative care programs. The model's proven clinical effectiveness and ability to lower costs boosts its uptake.

Escalating demand for integrated healthcare systems

 Healthcare systems are witnessing increasing pressure in the form of rising costs of treatment and limited resources. There has been growing need to cut costs and enhance efficiency of service delivery mechanism. This has boosted demand for collaborative care models where different healthcare service providers work in a coordinated manner to offer seamless healthcare services. Siloed approach of the past where individual departments such as primary care, specialty care, hospitals, and others worked independently is no longer relevant in the current scenario. Patients need all aspects of care to be well aligned right from preventive services, diagnostics, treatment, rehabilitation and others. Disjointed care often results in duplication of services, gaps in care continuum and higher costs. This highlights the requirement of collaborative networks where all stakeholders co-create strategic partnerships and information is shared seamlessly across care settings through digital platforms. With healthcare becoming increasingly complex due to advancement in treatment options, patients have complex needs. Their conditions often cut across multiple departments and resource pools. Coordinated care helps facilitate comprehensive management of health issues. It ensures proper communication flow between different providers and keeps patient needs and preferences at the focus of care delivery. This assures a more joined-up approach towards achieving optimal health outcomes.

Growing prevalence of chronic diseases

Non-communicable diseases have emerged as a leading cause of mortality and morbidity across both developed and developing world. Countries like U.S., China and India faces a heavy disease burden of chronic illnesses such as diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular conditions and respiratory disorders. As per estimates, over 60% of global fatalities are due to chronic conditions currently. This poses huge economic implications in terms of medical expenditures, loss of productivity and quality of life. Chronic diseases frequently require long term treatment, management, monitoring and lifestyle modifications. A single physician may not be able to satisfactorily address all aspects especially when co-morbidities exist. Patients find it difficult to navigate the complex care processes which span multiple care settings, specialties and service lines. Lack of coordination raises risks of suboptimal care, hospital re-admissions, medical errors and duplications. It also affect patients' adherence to treatment plans in the absence of streamlined guidance and support structures. Collaborative care models help foster integrated, patient-centric approaches for chronic illness care. Empanelment of multi-disciplinary care teams allows comprehensive oversight over patients' conditions. Co-located services in community-based facilities facilitate convenient access. Shared care plans and interoperable health records exchange timely updates while keeping patient preferences and goals at heart. This helps enhance quality of life as well as clinical outcomes for patients living with chronic diseases.
