Volume 5: No. 1, January 2008
In the current model, clinical preventive services are delivered mainly to community residents who are "patients" and visit a primary care physician.
Figure 1. Current Model for Delivery of Preventive Services.
In the SPARC model, there is community-wide access to routine clinical preventive services. In addition to measures delivered in the clinical setting, residents receive routine vaccinations, screenings, and screening referrals from multiple locations in the community. SPARC helps organize and coordinate these activities, gathers and distributes outcomes data, and develops new outreach programs in collaboration with local medical, public health, and social service agencies.
