In addition, the effects of reporting in a timely manner (without political constraints) and the efficiency of ProMED-mail in decreasing the delay in reporting have been studied through comparisons to the timeliness of reporting from the WHO [ 14- 18].
Furthermore, GPs succeeded in improving the patient's timeliness of care through the provision of teleconsultations and, at the same time, in reducing the need for secondary care, hospitalisations and admission to EDs.
Timeliness was assessed through the report on time rate (ROTR), defined as the number of reports sent on time divided by the total number of reports, multiplied by 100.
Advantages to some of these ICEMR-affiliated facilities are that additional resources are being applied to improve the quality and timeliness of data through standardized approaches to diagnostic testing, quality control measures, reliance on laboratory confirmed cases, and the use of electronic records and short message service text messages.
Meta-analyses have confirmed the benefits of collaborative care, with palliative patients and their families reporting greater satisfaction with health services and better pain and symptom management, as well as improvement in the timeliness of services through expedition of the referral process [ 2, 40- 42].
