As a healthcare professional, we are meeting different peoples with entirely different situations in our everyday life. In this situation, we need to know more about our health care system. Today we are going to discuss managed care, long-term care, and health services for special populations. First, we will look into the managed care. This model of the health care system has been designed to provide better service cost-effectively. It includes home visits and preventive medicine systems. When we look into the long-term care, our focus will be on patients with chronic diseases who require long-term assistance. Our aim in this care is to improve their quality of life and to provide care and assistance as long as they need. It needs well-trained healthcare professionals. Next, we will talk about health care services for the special population. It includes people who are homeless and those who are not able to approach the health care system due to different reasons such as poverty. Our role in this situation is to identify the need of society and to help them to get the benefits granted by the government. As a healthcare provider, it is the responsibility to reach out to the needy people to give them a helping hand.
