A definition of a rural model of health service delivery: A ‘hub and spoke’ (service partner) model
The Infrastructure Renewal Project for Rural and Remote Areas aims to define a rural model of health service delivery for Queensland, outline service profiles for a selection of rural health service sites and engage architect consultants to audit and review the related infrastructure.
In the absence of a strategic statewide policy for rural health services (but in anticipation of this work) it is proposed that this paper would underpin the future rural and remote policy development by describing a ‘hub and spoke’ (service partner) model of service delivery for rural and remote areas. This paper identifies Queensland rural hub sites and their associated spoke sites. The ‘hub and spoke’ model of rural service delivery aims to assist in ameliorating some of the many issues faced by the rural sector through improvements to organisation, governance, management and leadership and the development of formalised service networks.

IBM Healthcare: Healthcare 2015 and care delivery: Delivery models refined, competencies defined
This study is an extension of “Healthcare 2015: Win-win or lose-lose?” which details the broad case for healthcare system transformation. Since payers and providers should collaborate to address many of healthcare’s challenges, it is also linked to and consistent with another study on healthcare payers.In this paper, we explore how healthcare providers – care delivery organizations (CDOs, such as clinics, hospitals and regional ealth organizations) and individual clinicians (doctors and nurses, as well as midlevel providers, such as nursing assistants) – can better serve citizens/patients in the face of opportunities and constraints of evolving healthcare systems. We examine how key external factors will evolve and affect providers. Our study findings lead to the identification of key service models and five critical competencies needed for providers to implement those service models

Innovative Health Service Delivery Models for Low and Middle Income Countries
The goal of this report is to determine how private sector innovation in health service delivery can improve care for the poor. To do this, we have identified innovative organizations that have improved care for the poor, and we have characterized the 5 innovations in their health service delivery models, as discussed below. We then explore how these models might be harnessed by government and international funders to strengthen health systems.

New Care Delivery Models in Health System Reform: Opportunities for Nurses & their Patients
The key points of this American Nursing Association's issue brief are:
- Nurses’ education, skills and professional scope make them indispensible contributors to successful implementation of evolving patient–centered care delivery models.
- Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs), Medical/health homes, and Nurse-managed Health Clinics are three of the varied approaches to coordinated care.
- Health reform opens the door to a more central role for APRNs in the creation, leadership and management of new and innovative patient-

State Innovation Models: Early Experiences and Challenges of an Initiative to Advance Broad Health System Reform
ABSTRACT: The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and!states are partnering to transform health care systems by creating and testing new models of care delivery and payment. Interviews with officials from states participating in the State Innovation Models (SIM Initiative) reveal that the readiness of providers and payers to adopt innovations varies, requiring different starting points, goals, and strategies. So far, effective strategies appear to include: building on past reform efforts redesigning health information technology to provide reliable, targeted data on care costs and quality and using standard performance measures and financial incentives to spur alignment of providers’ and payers’ goals. State governments also have policy levers to encourage efficient deployment of a diverse health care workforce. As federal officials review states’ innovation plans, set timetables, and provide technical assistance, they can also take steps to accommodate the budgetary, political, and time constraints that states are facing.

State Public Health System Performance Assessment (Version 2.0)
This performance assessment was carried out by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The purpose for undertaking a performance assessment is to strengthen and improve the public health system. The standards were set at the optimal level; for this reason, Essential Public Health Services participating jurisdictions will likely see many differences between their own performance and the “gold standard” presented in the instruments. System partners should seek to address these weaknesses and also recognize and maintain areas in which they are strong.
List of Essential Public Health Services:
1. Monitor health status to identify community health problems.
2. Diagnose and investigate health problems and health hazards in the community.
3. Inform, educate, and empower people about health issues.
4. Mobilize community partnerships to identify and solve health problems.
5. Develop policies and plans that support individual and community health efforts.
6. Enforce laws and regulations that protect health and ensure safety.
7. Link people to needed personal health services and assure the provision of health care when otherwise unavailable.
8. Assure a competent public and personal health care workforce.
9. Evaluate effectiveness, accessibility and quality of personal and population-based health services.
10. Research for new insights and innovative solutions to health problems.
