ULutsha lwaseColorado lufumana ngokukhawuleza kunye noFikelelo oluLula kwiiNkonzo zezeMpilo zokuziphatha ngokusebenzisa iNkqubo eXhaswa yiNkathalelo yeMpilo yaBantwana, i-AccessCare kunye neColorado Access.
Ngokuhlanganisa uKhathalelo kunye namaZiko eMpilo amaninzi aPhakathi nakwiZikolo eziPhakamileyo, le Nkqubo iSebenza ukujongana neNgxaki yeMpilo yeNgqondo yeSizwe.
I-DENVER-Ngendlela ubhubhane oluthathe ngayo ulutsha malunga nokuba yedwa, amava alahlekileyo kunye nokufunda okuqhekekayo, abantwana kunye nolutsha bayasokola ukufikelela kwizixhobo zokujongana neemfuno zabo zempilo yengqondo. A uphando lwangoku nje yi-Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) ibonise ukuba i-40% yolutsha lwaseColorado lwaba neemvakalelo zokudakumba kunyaka odlulileyo. NgoMeyi ka-2022, iSibhedlele saBantwana saseColorado sathi imeko yonxunguphalo kwimpilo yengqondo yabantwana (eyayibhengeza ngoMeyi ka-2021) iye yaba mandundu kulo nyaka uphelileyo. Access Colorado, esona sicwangciso sikhulu sezempilo secandelo likarhulumente kurhulumente, sibambisene nombutho wasekuhlaleni ongenzi nzuzo Ukhathalelo lweMpilo lwaBantwana lokuqala (Abantwana Okokuqala) ukujongana nokhathalelo lwempilo yokuziphatha kweli qela, ukudibanisa nokhathalelo oluphambili ezikolweni kwaye ekugqibeleni lufikeleleke kwaye lusebenze.
AccessCare, i-telehealth subsidiary ye-Colorado Access, isebenzise inkqubo yayo ye-Virtual Care Collaboration and Integration (VCCI) ukusebenzisana nabantwana bokuqala ukubonelela ngonyango lwenyani ekuqaleni kumaziko ezempilo asekuhlaleni amahlanu asekelwe esikolweni, kodwa ukususela ngoko iye yanda kuzo zonke iikliniki ezisibhozo (isikolo esithandathu- amaziko ezempilo kunye neekliniki ezimbini zoluntu). Ukusukela ngo-Agasti ka-2020 ukuya kuMeyi ka-2022, le nkqubo yayinotyelelo lwe-304 kunye nezigulana ezikhethekileyo ezingama-67. Ngokutsho kweKids First, oku kukwanda kwesidingo nokuhanjiswa kweenkonzo xa kuthelekiswa noko bebekubonile ngaphambili. Kukho izizathu ezininzi zoku, kodwa enye icacile; iinkonzo zifikelelwa kwindawo eqhelekileyo – ngamaziko ezempilo asezikolweni.
Umfundi owayenenxaxheba wabhala: “Ukuba nocwangciso olufana nokucebisa iKids First esikolweni kuye kwandinceda ngokwenene ukuba ndilawule impilo yam yengqondo. Ngaphambili, kwakunzima kakhulu kumntu olingana nam ukufumana indawo eya kundinceda ukuba andibeke endleleni efanelekileyo yokufumana iingcebiso kunye nonyango lwengqondo. I-Kids First indivulele iingcango ezininzi ukuba ekugqibeleni ndiyiqonde into endiyidingayo kwaye ekugqibeleni ndiqale ukuziva ngcono. Oko ndinenkqubo ye-telehealth esikolweni, iye yafikeleleka ngakumbi kwaye kulula ukufumana uncedo xa ndilufuna, kwaye ngenxa yoko ndihlala ndinombulelo. ”
Le ntsebenziswano ikwavumela amaziko ezempilo asesikolweni ukuba alungelelanise ukhathalelo lwempilo yomzimba kunye nokhathalelo lwezempilo lokuziphatha. Ngenkqubo, umfundi uqala ukudibana nomboneleli wezempilo womzimba (kaninzi emva kokuba ethunyelwe ngumcebisi wezemfundo okanye utitshala) ukuchonga naziphi na iimfuno zempilo yomzimba kunye nokuxoxa ngeemfuno kunye nokukhethwa kweenkonzo zempilo yengqondo. Ukusuka apho, ukhathalelo lwempilo yomzimba kunye nokuziphatha ludityanisiwe ukubonelela ngemodeli ebanzi ngakumbi yokhathalelo. Iimeko ezithile ezifuna zombini unyango lwempilo yomzimba nengqondo, njengakwimeko yokuphazamiseka kokutya, ngakumbi inzuzo kule ndlela.
Ukunikezelwa kweemeko eziphezulu zeetheraphisti zesikolo kunye nemingeni edibanisa nababoneleli basekuhlaleni, abasebenzi be-Kids First bathi ukufikelela kukhathalelo kunokuthatha iiveki okanye iinyanga kwaye nangona kunjalo kunokungaqhelekanga. Nge-AccessCare, izigulane zinokubonwa kwiveki, ezinokuthi zenze impembelelo enkulu.
"Olu hlobo lwenkxaso lusindisa ubomi," utshilo u-Emily Human, umphathi wamanyathelo ekliniki kuKhathalelo lweMpilo yaBantwana. "Le nkqubo inceda abaguli babone ukubaluleka kokhathalelo lwempilo yengqondo kunye noncedo ekunciphiseni ibala elijikeleze ukufuna iinkonzo zempilo yengqondo."

Ukudibana kubandakanya i-e-consult okanye ukusetyenziswa kweenkonzo ze-telehealth kwaye ichazwa njengokutyelela apho isigulane sidibana nomboneleli. Okwangoku inkqubo ye-VCCI idityaniswe ngokupheleleyo kwiindawo zokuziqhelanisa eziziiprayimari ezingama-27 kuyo yonke i-metro yaseDenver, ngoku iquka iindawo ezisibhozo ngentsebenziswano ne-Kids First.
