Integrated models of care for diabetes and hypertension in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) : Protocol for a systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

In low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), the burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) is growing against an existing burden of other diseases such as HIV/AIDS. Integrated models of care can help address the rising burden of multi-morbidity. Although integration of care can occur at various levels and has been defined in numerous ways, our aim is to assess the effects of integration of service delivery at primary healthcare level in LMICs.
