人口老龄化深刻地转变了社会成员对医疗服务的需求:传染病对人类的威胁已经远远小于慢性疾病。慢性病在中国也已经取代烈性传染病,成为中国城乡居民死亡的主要原因。但由于慢性病的隐蔽性和长期性,对慢性病的预防和早期干预还远远没有引起足够重视。本文介绍美国近年来迅速发展的一项医疗服务:疾病管理(Disease Management)。疾病管理是一种对慢性病综合的预防和干预模式。本文重点介绍疾病管理如何提高健康状况、医疗质量,分析了疾病管理在中国应用的潜在前景,并且提出相关政策建议。
The aging population has profoundly changed the needs of members of society for medical services: the threat posed to human beings by infectious diseases is much smaller than that of chronic diseases. Chronic diseases have also replaced potent infectious diseases in China, becoming the main cause of death among urban and rural residents in China. However, due to the covert and long-term nature of chronic diseases, the prevention and early intervention of chronic diseases are far from enough attention. This article describes a rapidly evolving medical service in the United States in recent years: Disease Management. Disease management is a comprehensive prevention and intervention model for chronic diseases. This article focuses on how disease management improves health and quality of care, analyzes the potential of disease management in China and suggests policy recommendations.
