补充和替代医学(CAM)与传统医学的整合在实践环境和模式中继续进行。管理型护理尤其引起从业者、政策制定者和关注CAM集成发展的研究人员的兴趣。在健康维护组织(HMO)中,CAM的可用性、覆盖面和支持是可变的。我们提出了一个组织模型,在该模型中,我们确定了影响医疗保健组织内CAM整合程度的因素。我们描述了目前在凯撒永久(KPNW)西北部地区获得CAM的途径。我们还描述了适用于医疗保健组织内CAM整合研究的研究方法。
The integration of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) with conventional medicine continues across practice settings and modalities. Managed care is of particular interest to practitioners, policy makers, and researchers concerned with the evolution of CAM integration. Within health maintenance organizations (HMOs), availability, coverage, and support of CAM are variable. We present an organizational model within which we identify factors that influence the degree of CAM integration within HMOs. We describe avenues through which CAM is currently available within the Northwest Region of Kaiser Permanente (KPNW). We also describe research methods applicable to the study of CAM integration within HMOs.
