Deloitte can introduce new healthcare delivery models that can alter the purchaser / provider relationship and enable the implementation of new delivery capabilities. Models to consider include:

• Integrated healthcare partnerships - identification of partners with common incentives
• Establishing plans for horizontal and vertical integration
• Patient centred care delivery - realignment of services and wards to enhance patient responsiveness according to disease groups; users of likely diagnostic support or length of stay expectations
• Total health management - population based approach
• Disease management
• Demand management
• Standardisation of clinical decision making
