There is a palpable tension that eats the medical-patient relationship. Doctors are excessive. Patients are not very informed and lack the necessary trust to adequately self -advert their medical care needs.
The medical-patient relationship is experienced a communication breakdown resulting in gaps in care and a relationship that feels onerous for both parties. But like any relationship, seeking help is of the first step.
The Journal of General Internal MedicineRecently he discovered that Primary Care Suppliers (PCP) require an average of 26.7 hours to carry out administrative tasks effectively and provide care to their patients in a given day.
In other words, for most doctors, provide “effective” care and communicate with patients take more time than there are hours in one day.
And like any high stress work that requests long hours, it can cause exhaustion and rotation. In fact, a recent study found that an amazing 49% of the doctors said they were burned.
And, according to the data of the American Academy of Doctors Associates, almost half of the adults (47%) think that their medical care providers seem to be burned or overloaded, and 30% say they have felt a hurried appointment.
But the responsibility is not completely on the PCP side of the house. Patients to enter their supplier’s office without the set of adequate tools to advocate their own needs and cannot properly communicate their health conerns.
This includes a lack of awareness when it comes to understanding the importance of routine and preventive evaluations that are critical for long -term health and well -being.
According to US News and World Report, 32% of patients said they cannot fit in an appointment at their time or continue forgetting to make an appointment.
And another 25% said they don’t like to go to the doctor.
Many patients simply do not receive preventive health exams and checks they need, since a recent study showed that only 8 percent of adults received all highly Romanized services with the greatest potential to improve health.
This exploded relationship leads to non -diagnosed diseases, lack of access to effective treatments, not adhesion to recipes and medical advice, and restricted access to medical care services.
At the end of the day, when patients and doctors cannot participate in medical care conversations, the quality of patient care and health, the increase in the costs of medical care in the United States, the lower quality of care and unhealthy patients.
Fortunately, doctors and patients can rely on health plans and other industry partners for external help. Very in the way in which a marriage therapist or counselor can act independently and see both parties without bias or pointing with the finger.
The repair of fractured relationships for the patient with PCP requires holistic changes throughout the medical care ecosystem.
An accessible and inclusive communication model can close the gap between doctors on overloads and overloads and their patients who need health education, and more contact points related to the management of the chronic condition.
It requires health plans to see and support creative ways to involve its members to adopt a more proactive approach to their health: the health plan can play a role in promoting self -efficacy between their membership through effective bidirectional communication that does not exert additional pressure on the supplier’s side, while making unattended patients feel more valued.
Experts in the third -party industry that focus on the participation of patients with the doctor can be a great asset for health plans. Its ability to focus on commitment can help close care gaps between the doctor, patients and plans, leading to a better circle of trust and participation.
The proper spray of the experience of third -party relationships can support health plans to strategically attack and achieve vulnerable patients who respected in food deserts, lack viable transport options and suffer from social isolation, all thermal stines or thermal stressful stressful of thermalors of thermalors of thermalors of thermalors of thermaling or determining preventive care.

When they are executed correctly, innovative approaches in such a way that it will give patients with tools and trust, they must take control of their own health results and communicate with their doctors.
The relationship and trust between us and our primary care suppliers is one of the most important we have. As the old saying says: “Trust takes years to build, seconds to break and forever to repair.”
Trust does not have to break, sometimes you just need an external perspective to begin the healing process.
