Abstract:
As a regional general hospital, Raden Matthaer Regional Hospital is of course the main destination for people to go for treatment. Limited facilities are one of the obstacles to patient service, quite a few patients who have received treatment at Raden Mattaher Hospital are referred to other hospitals to continue treatment. Referrals are not only made within the city but also to hospitals outside the city. Referral of patients to hospitals outside the city when services are not available at hospitals in Jambi. During the referral process, of course, ambulance transportation is required. Using

Abstract:
In Tanzania, regional referral hospitals (RRHs) play a major role in providing curative and diagnostic services and influence the performance of the entire health system. The results of a baseline survey conducted in 2015 to determine the status of RRHs in Tanzania indicated that there were many supportive supervisory and assessment tools for RRHs but none of them specifically focused on the performance of hospitals.

Abstract:
Bhutan has a three-tiered healthcare system with the majority of services remaining Thimphu-centric. At the height of public demand for Immigration Medical Examination services, the two regional referral hospitals put in their efforts to establish the services in Gelephu and Mongar. The Regional Referral Hospitals enabled accessibility to IME services and improved efficiency at the National Referral Hospital by decongesting the number of clients. In this article, we describe how the regional referral hospitals established IME services that meet the standards of the destination country.

Objectives. The increasingly competitive health care environment may undermine effective traditional regional organizations. It is urgent to document the benefits of perinatal regionalization for the emerging health care system. We present a case study that illustrates many of the challenges to and benefits of perinatal regionalization in the 1990s. Background. The controversy in Hartford was sparked by a proposed merger of two major pediatric services into a full-service children's hospital.

Our aim was to assess the baseline pediatric cancer knowledge among medical providers at health centers and district hospitals in the Mwanza region and evaluate the impact of a training program on cancer knowledge and symptom recognition, and ultimately reduce referral delay.

In 1998, a teleradiology system was established in Croatia. It connects 34 CT, MRI and DSA scanners in 29 hospitals with a referral centre in the neurosurgery department in Zagreb. In the first three years of its use, the network saved more than 400,000 km of patient transportation (i.e. without a teleconsultation, all of the patients would have had to be transported to the nearest referral neurosurgical unit). During the first seven years, an archive with 25,366 expert opinions was collected. A total of 7103 (28%) expert opinions were provided for the distant regional hospitals. The most comm
