In the outpatient treatment of depression, the potential of diagnostic and therapeutic methods is seldom exhausted resulting in variable quality of treatment and partly insufficient cost effectiveness. Implementation of a guideline-oriented reimbursement system seems to be an option to improve quality of treatment. Corresponding incentive systems have been outlined and evaluated for the health care of somatic diseases such as diabetes. Acting on these experiences, an attempt was made to utilize them for the area of psychiatric disorders. Taking depression as an example, a model for a quality-oriented, guideline-based reimbursement system for general and specialist practice is presented.
Humanistic medical care is an important element of quality health care, and teaching humanism is increasingly recognized as an integral component of medical education. The goal of this article is to illustrate a series of tools that are effective in fostering both the provision and teaching of humanistic medical care in the ambulatory setting. Through a series of discussions, workshops, literature review, and practice, the authors have identified critical elements that promote the teaching of humanistic care. These elements include establishing a humanistic learning climate, creating clear individualized learning goals within a framework of humanism, developing an educational diagnosis of the learner, integrating psychosocial issues into the teaching intervention, reflecting on the learning experience with the learner, providing feedback throughout the teaching encounter, and planning follow-up with the learner. Strategies for implementation of these critical elements are presented with an emphasis on efficient educational interactions as required by busy ambulatory settings. Through the effective use of these teaching strategies, one can promote the teaching of the human dimensions of care in the outpatient setting.
