In order to practice aging in place and reduce the cost of medical care and long-term care, the home and community-based integration model is valued and promoted by the aging countries. Taiwan is also actively developing integrated care. Hence, the purpose of this research is to observe the integration care practice under the Taiwan's long-term care 2.0 system, and provide suggestions for policy development through the practical experience analysis. This study uses focus group, depth interviews and observation research methods to collect the integrate care practice information and uses the micro, meso and macro views constructed by Reed et al. (2005) to analyze the current experience and challenges of integrated care in Taiwan. The main results of this research are:(1) The payment system makes the competition relationship greater than the integration relationship between the professional workers, and it should be recommended to enhance the integration incentives and mechanisms; (2) The system lacks a quality supervision mechanism. This system should be developed through discussion between different professional worker to clarify the different professional worker's authority, role, and responsibility; (3) It is difficult to obtain client's information, which leads to the barriers in integrated care; (4) The system lacks a decision-makers to enhance the consolidation and coordination of the integrated care. The care manager or case manager should play this role. |
