Providing Care in Remote Areas
Lacking Medical Resources
A. IDS: Bringing care to Remote Mountain Areas and
Islands
1.
Taiwan has a number of sparsely populated mountainous
areas and islands that lack medical resources because
of their locations and relative inaccessibility. To address
the gap in care, the NHIAdevised a plan to have willing
and capable hospitals send health care workers into
those areas. Initiated in November 1999, the Integrated
Delivery System (IDS) encourages major hospitals to
offer outpatient care, emergency services, and overnight
care either on-site or on a rotating basis.
2.
The IDS program covers all 48 mountainous and
island townships in the country. They are served by
25
contracted hospitals running 29 separate projects to
supplement local medical services.
