Abstract:
The ‘fit‘ of information and communication technologies (ICT) in community health is important in meeting the needs of patients, carers, staff and organizations in the delivery of services. A good fit leads to greater efficiencies and effectiveness in ICT use. A multi-step research project was conducted to look not only at the role of ICT but at how to manage ICT and make a good ICT fit to enhance community health services. Telehealth was identified as the application of ICT to enhance population health, health promotion and health-service delivery. A participatory process was identified as cr

Abstract:
Although Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in the healthcare sector are extensively deployed globally, they are not used effectively in developing countries. Many resource poor countries face numerous challenges in implementing the ICT interventions. For instance, many health applications that have been deployed are not user-centric. As a result, such ICT interventions do not benefit many health consumers. The lack of an ICT framework to support patient-centric healthcare services in Malawi renders the e-health and mhealth interventions less sustainable and less cost effective.

Early establishment of health services and health controls to prevent, control and, when possible, eradicate endemic diseases reduced the need for antibiotics.

Abstract:
Before the 1990s, Mongolia had a health care system that largely depended on hospital-based services. The country’s hospital sector was characterized by the extensive use of an excessive number of acute beds, a large number of medically unjustified admissions, and lengthy hospital stays. In the early 1990s, the Government of Mongolia started socioeconomic reforms as part of the transition to a market economy. It requested the Asian Development Bank (ADB) to support health sector reforms in the country. This paper describes the hospital sector in Mongolia along with the reforms and results achi

Abstract:
This article provides an overview of financing for long-term services and supports (LTSS) in the United States, paying special attention to how it has changed and not changed over the last 30 years. Although LTSS expenditures have increased greatly (like the rest of health care), the broad outline of the financing system has remained remarkably constant. Medicaid—a means-tested program—continues to dominate LTSS financing, while private long-term care insurance plays a minor role. High out-of-pocket costs and spend-down to Medicaid because of those high costs continue to be hallmarks of the sy

Abstract:
This report looks at transition from central to federal responsibilities for health and education in Nepal and Indonesia. Federalism is a complex process and it was outside of the scope of this review to investigate the extent to which it has been developed in these countries and the nature of its functioning. Challenges identified in the literature on transition to federalism and decentralisation include ensuring equitable distribution of finances and resources across states, slow transfer of power and lack of coordination between government levels, lack of capacity at local levels and incohe

Abstract:
ince the early 1990s, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) has broadly supported health sector reforms in Mongolia. This paper describes primary health care (PHC) in Mongolia and ADB support in its reform. It highlights results achieved and the lessons drawn that could be useful for future programs in Mongolia and other countries. PHC reform in Mongolia aimed at facilitating a shift from hospital-based curative services toward preventive approaches. It included introducing new management models based on public–private partnerships, increasing the range of services, applying more effective financin
