Abstract
The escalating complexity of healthcare demands has necessitated the adoption of integrated, multidisciplinary approaches to optimize patient outcomes. This study investigates the effectiveness of quality-centric healthcare, a strategy that unites various medical specialties to provide holistic, patient-centered care. The objective is to evaluate how this integrative approach influences clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction. The findings suggest that quality-centric healthcare not only improves clinical outcomes but also increases patient satisfaction and operational efficiency within healthcare systems. This paper argues for the adoption of this integrated approach as a standard practice in healthcare institutions, highlighting its potential to transform patient care delivery in the modern medical landscape. Study findings reveal that healthcare systems employing a quality-centric approach report significant improvements in patient outcomes, including reduced hospital readmission rates and enhanced patient satisfaction scores. Additionally, the study underscores the pivotal role of technology and continuous quality improvement in sustaining these enhancements.
Aim: Investigate the effectiveness of quality-centric healthcare in optimizing patient care through multidisciplinary specialties.
