What Challenges Exist in Ensuring Quality of Care?
Several challenges can hinder the assurance of quality of care in epidemiology:
- Resource Constraints: Limited financial and human resources can impede the delivery of high-quality care. - Data Limitations: Incomplete or inaccurate data can affect the evaluation of healthcare interventions. - Healthcare Disparities: Inequities in access to care and social determinants of health can lead to variations in care quality. - Resistance to Change: Healthcare providers may be resistant to adopting new practices or technologies that improve care quality.
