Designing Structured Regional Alliance Path Model for Healthcare Coordination Based on PCAPS.

A deficit in medical insurance finance has been observed with an increase in national medical expenses due to rapid aging, and the premium income does not increase. Therefore, efficient functioning of all medical institutions, reinforcement of a coordinated medical care system, and effective practical use of this system are necessary. In this study, a coordinated medical treatment system is considered and a regional alliance path is designed as a tool that facilitates in improving the coordinated medical treatment system step-by-step. It clarifies the future of a patient's condition by providing appropriate management and helps to achieve effective coordination. Further, the regional alliance path helps to prescribe appropriate medical examination and treatment processes that each medical institution should follow by considering the processes followed by local clinics, and further, enables suitable distribution of community medical resources.
