System Dynamics

 

            System dynamics is a method for studying the interactions between different components of complex systems. This approach, while often used in business and social systems, is underutilized in health care.

            Systems approaches may help program planners better understand the “system ripple” created by telehealth "stones" on the larger "pond" of health care delivery. Please watch this site for more information regarding attempts to better conceptualize the effect of telehealth on Indian healthcare business and clinical processes.
