Such systems represent a dynamic and flexible network of individuals who can coevolve with their ever changing environment. The CAS performance fluctuates and its members’ interactions continuously change over time in response to the stress generated by its surrounding environment. This paper will review the challenges of intervening and introducing a planned change into a complex adaptive health care delivery system. We explore the role of the “reflective adaptive process” in developing delivery interventions and suggest different evaluation methodologies to study the impact of such interventions on the performance of the entire system. We finally describe the implementation of a new program, the Aging Brain Care Medical Home as a case study of our proposed evaluation process.Keywords: complexity, aging brain, implementation, complex adaptive system, sustained change, care deliveryMalaz A BoustaniStephanie MungerRajesh Gulatiet alDove Medical Pressarticlecomplexityaging brainimplementationcomplex adaptive systemsustained changecare deliveryGeriatricsRC952-954.6ENClinical Interventions in Aging, Vol Volume 5, Pp 141-148 (2010) |
