Care System

Health law can be viewed as comprising several distinct, but overlapping, areas of interest: the health care system, the therapeutic relationship, and the public health system. These three spheres do not represent the entire range of issues dealt with by health law scholars, but they are among the most prominent. This article analyzes the major tensions and trade-offs that occur, explicitly or implicitly, in each of these three areas. The theory is that individual liberty interests often clash with collective interests in health and security. The law mediates between these two sets of interests. The article first examines the health care system — that is, the organization, financing, and delivery of personal medical services. Next it considers the therapeutic relationship — that is, the complex ways in which patients and health care professionals (principally doctors) interact. Finally, it discusses public health law, which principally involves government duties and powers to assure the conditions in which populations can be healthy.

Care System

There are a multitude of reasons that a teletinnitus program can be beneficial, not only to the patients, but also within the hospital and audiology department. The ability to use technology for the purpose of tinnitus management allows for improved appointment access for all patients, especially those who live at a distance, has been shown to be more cost effective when the patients travel is otherwise monetarily compensated, and allows for multiple patient's to be seen in the same time slots, allowing for greater access to the clinic for the patients wishing to be seen in-house. There is also the patient's excitement in being part of a new technology-based program. The Gulf Coast Veterans Health Care System (GCVHCS) saw the potential benefits of incorporating a teletinnitus program and began implementation in 2013. There were a few hurdles to work through during the beginning organizational process and the initial execution of the program. Since the establishment of the Teletinnitus program, the GCVHCS has seen an enhancement in patient care, reduction in travel compensation, improvement in clinic utilization, clinic availability, the genuine excitement of the use of a new healthcare media amongst staff and patients, and overall patient satisfaction.
