8-2. Short Paper: Future Directions of Health Psychology
The comprehensive intervention model is a medical field trend affecting health
psychology (Staton & Taylor, 2021). Some comprehensive intervention models could include
hospice, pain management programs and rehab for coronary heart disease. In hospice, palliative
management and psychotherapeutic technologies are created for patients at the end-of-life stage
in their life. In many pain management programs, all treatment options are brought together to
develop regimens based on the patients as individuals. The rehabilitation for patients with
coronary heart disease could either be done in a coordinated residential or an outpatient program,
which aid in a multitude of health habits. Although comprehensive intervention models are
considered to be beneficial, they could also end up being financially hindering. For
comprehensive intervention models to still be utilized in the definition of high-quality health
care, attention needs to be given to the programs financially as well as keeping in mind of how
effective the treatments are for patients.
Based on what I have personally learned during this course, I have reason to believe that
comprehensive intervention models could be appropriate as treatments for a multitude of
illnesses. That is if they could keep the financial side of these treatments at a low. Placing these
programs in a more affordable range for individuals could become very beneficial to all patients.
The higher financial costs of comprehensive intervention models have created a push effect in
health psychology, which forces research on alternative ways for individuals to stay away from
the health system altogether. Evidence-based medications have proven to become more
beneficial in the reduction of needs for health care systems by individuals. We have learned how
the body and mind are connected during this course, so by reducing financial costs for the
interventions would aid in reducing stress for patients. Reducing the patient's stress and teaching
them ways to cope could aid their overall health. Reducing the rate of mental illnesses would aid
in reducing the need to utilize health care services. Searching for better cost-effective strategies
in order to keep these programs afloat could aid individuals to reduce their need for additional
healthcare services.
