Integrated health care has the ability to provide adequate care system in different modalities of medical care. Saudi Arabia is going through major transformation in its health care services in order to provide sufficient resources. A 12-dimension SCIROCCO online self-assessment tool, was extracted from the B3-MM, was used for the scaling up of health intervention and for assessing the maturity level of integrated care within different regions. SCIROCCO tool assess a step wise scaling up technique to evaluate how to scale up integrated care during heath transformation. By having knowledge of the factors which make this strategy difficult to implement this study evaluates to what extent SCIROCCO technique was applied.
The SCIROCCO tool was used to assess the maturity of systems of Jazan, Saudi Arabia for integrated care system and for the evaluation of factors affecting scaling up. Data was collected from Stakeholders from multiple disciplines including decision-maker, healthcare professional, IT specialist by self-assessment method. The outcomes of the self-assessment process were visually captured in the form of spider diagrams.
All three fundamental steps of the scaling up procedure were executed with satisfactory devotion. Integrated heath transformation in Jazan yielded 18 points out of 60 on spider diagram according to SCIROCCO tool. Majority of the dimensions have no more than 3 score. Digital Health care transformation in Jazan needs to be improved in most of the aspects.
This study assesses maturity level of integrated care in Jazan and concludes that An ICT infrastructure to support integrated care has been agreed together with a recommended set of technical standards but there are Still local variations or some systems in place are not yet standardized. Learning about integrated care and change management was in place but not widely implemented.
