  • Title: Integrated pathways for managing rural health services.
    Author: Hicks LL, Bopp KD.
    Journal: Health Care Manage Rev; 1996; 21(1):65-72. PubMed ID: 8647692.
    Abstract:
    Rural providers must redefine their role in the changing health care system to include a more integrated approach to health care delivery. The rural provider must develop integrated pathways to coordinate all medical, behavior, and social services to ensure that appropriate services are available, locally or through linkages with other providers, for the population. The integrated pathway must manage care across the continuum of services and coordinate decisions occurring at the point of service.
