Evaluación de la unidad de Espasticidad en IPS 3 nivel

Abstract

In a third-level private IPS in the city of Bogotá, an evaluation is made of the unit dedicated to the management of spasticity, organized 4 months ago and currently underway. In this writing it is intended to analyze its conformation and current state of the unit as a business unit for the institution. Spasticity is a painful, disfiguring, and disabling condition with a limited functional prognosis. Perhaps this is the explanation why there is no statistical study of the incidence and prevalence in Colombia, added perhaps to the fact that it is a sequela and not a primary pathology, as well as no information on the cost benefit of treating this condition that it becomes a high-cost pathology if it is analyzed from the social and labor cost point of view. We want to make known what this unit consists of the sector of the population to whom it is directed, and its value proposition, which is the main objective when starting the business unit at IPS. Likewise, the key activities it offers will be analyzed and how it can become a non-negligible source of income by generating cost by itself and resulting in more products that are offered to EPS. It will be possible to observe the adequate interaction between medical specialists to be able to offer each patient the best possible management and to be able to establish the goals to comply with the treatment, whether surgical or medical. The weaknesses, threats, opportunities, and strengths of the unit are evaluated in order to determine if it is a sustainable business unit and meets the specific objectives of the institution.
