Manchester College International Management Presentation

Slide 2
Welcome to the presentation, where we will attempt to examine some of the key aspects that
surround healthcare services and the product that would revolutionize healthcare as we know it.
We are aware of the importance of healthcare services, an aspect that was clearly evidenced by
the Millenium Declaration Act of 2000, with 189 countries vowing to prioritize healthcare across
the globe. Among the objectives of the signed declaration was to help in the mitigation of
healthcare gaps. Today, we face a monumental task that was clearly highlighted by the recent
spat of COVID-19 cases- that of a clear difference in healthcare administration as countries saw
their facilities stretched to the maximum.
Slide 3
But is the problem significant, or is it an exaggeration? Well, there are several indicators that
would indicate the existence of a problem that needs to be resolved. For example, the World
Health Organization (WHO) stated in a report that half of the world’s population does not have
access to essential healthcare services. Appalling, isn’t it? Especially considering the
advancements that have been made in the field of science and technology. In fact, up to 100
million people are driven to poverty as a result of unprecedented medical expenses, with up to
800 million spending 10% of their household budget on healthcare-related services.
Slide 4
To further sensitize on the subject, relevant statistical data showed a continued increase across all
regions. The graph shown in the slide shows a continued increase in recent times, especially with
the outbreak of COVID-19. Low-income countries have had to increase such spending by 7.8%
of their GDP, which is driven by the current need for medical equipment to match recent rises of
positive cases on the pandemic. Effective mitigation would need to be reflective in the reduction
of medical costs.
Slide 5
As we have seen so far, medical costs and access to healthcare continue to be a problem in most
countries. The main question is how can we mitigate such challenges even as we continue to
overcome the current challenges? Technology continues to be one feasible answer, an aspect that
the current COVID-19 pandemic has largely indicated. Even as countries continue to open up
from achieving herd immunity, the positives in as far the use of technology can be taken to the
next level.
Slide 6
In the midst of such challenges, Telehealth continues to be a unique approach that helps in the
mitigation of healthcare accessibility issues. The practice simply entails the infusion of video and
audio technology in the dispensation of healthcare services. I believe that key costs such as
consultation fees and travel can be reduced with the effective implementation of medicare as a
concept. Telemedicine is a key component of telehealth services, where access to medicine is
made possible via effective transportation, delivery, and logistic services.
Slide 7
To help us gain a better view of Telehealth in action, let’s look at a research study done during
the COVID-19 pandemic in Missouri, a US state characterized by certain challenging elements.
The state has 97% of its land in rural areas, with 30-37% of residents living in such areas. In
such a landscape, telehealth provision was always going to be a challenge with the pandemic
sweeping over the country. However, as we shall see, the state met the challenge via the
implementation of Telehealth services.
Slide 8
Having defined the challenges that come with patient care in Missouri during the pandemic,
strategic implementation of the Missouri case would involve implementing the key 3 quick-care
clinics to be located in grocery stores in rural areas. Patients who exhibited exacerbated
symptoms of chronic illnesses were identified to have ambulatory services on deck to assist.
What was the result? An effective reduction of in-person visits at the clinic, thereby reducing the
pressure at state hospitals.
Slide 9
Having seen the advantages that Telehealth provides to the people of Missouri, Tel-Global, a
company that advances research methods across various remote countries, seeks to expand
Telehealth services across various countries. The company plans to take advantage of Telehealth
in other countries to expand how healthcare is made accessible. With the infrastructure already in
place across most regions, Tel Global seeks to utilize ICT infrastructure to provide telehealth and
telemedicine services, streamlining key components to ensure that the service is made available
to remote regions across the globe.
Slide 10
Having determined the key aspects of Telehealth, it is imperative that the benefits be highlighted
in context to the current discussion. Considering that access is the key aspect where healthcare
has failed to make accessible, Telehealth provides easier and faster access, thereby reducing
patient transportation costs. Other benefits include healthcare monitoring systems that are more
suited for individual patients. With effective care and treatment, local health institutions are able
to manage resources such as beds and personnel based upon case escalation.
Slide 11
Having looked at the potential benefits of Telehealth services, it is imperative that we also
consider the current challenges that the practice may have. Among the key issues that could stifle
service providers’ progress include the privacy of patient information, especially when an online
connection is not secure. Also, the provision of accurate data would present a challenge,
especially in light of reliance on self-reports for diagnosis. In addition, there is a need to
determine how best to handle patient case escalation, with proximity being a key issue. Finally,
there is the issue of medical liability and how it should be apportioned when the neglect is found
to be on the part of the healthcare provider.
Slide 12
Considering that there are key aspects that are involved in the development of the telehealthcare
provision, Tel-Global looks to provide key services to the general populace through strategic
implementation. Prior to any implementation of telehealth services, the company will conduct a
series of preliminary feasibility studies that include average distances for patients seeking regular
checkups, the availability of internet services, the determination of patients who are in dire need
of regular checkups as those with chronic conditions. After taking those aspects into
consideration, a plan is devised to aid in the overall telehealthcare provision.
Slide 13
To mitigate the challenges that were mentioned earlier with regard to licensure and cooperation
from various medical facilities, Tel-Global will seek to manifest its ideas to key stakeholders as
part of its initial strategy to make the approach a success. Medical specialists in the field of
medicine and regulatory bodies would be able to provide key input into how the plan can be
modified for the needs of their countries. Also, a study will be done on patient admissions to
establish some of the key characteristics that would play a factor in the implementation.
Slide 14
One of the key aspects that we at Tel-Global believe to be paramount to the effective
implementation of telehealth services is the kind assistance of the general public. We wish to
help countries as well people achieve better health outcomes through our proposed planned
service. However, we can only do so with your assistance. In this platform for young
entrepreneurs, we have influential people who have connections to key institutions. We ask that
you advocate for our service provision to help your area have access to health services more
speedily. Tel-Global promises to carry out key logistical services based upon our preliminary
studies and consultation to see how best to implement telehealthcare in your locality. Tel-Global
asks that you access our content via our social medial handles to be more educated on effective
advocacy. Only through your help can we achieve better health.
Thank You!
