Model of shared care delivery improves glaucoma management at Belgian university clinic
PRAGUE — An innovative model of shared care delivery resulted in optimization of flow, increased patient volume, cost savings and greater satisfaction of patients, employees and glaucoma specialists. Ingeborg Stalmans, MD, PhD, head of the glaucoma unit at Leuven University Hospital, Belgium, talked about this project at the European Glaucoma Society Congress, starting from the observation that optimization of resources might help avoid the two extremes of undertreatment and overtreatment, as well as the problem of capacity saturation in future years.
