This systematic review aims to identify the facilitators and barriers affecting the delivery of routine health care services during the COVID-19 pandemic, providing a framework for future research.
Enhanced education initiatives, increased use of telehealth resources, and patient PPE measures were found to have a positive impact on routine care, while the conservation of providers and incongruent telehealth methods posed barriers.
These findings can assist healthcare organizations in addressing process-related challenges and support future research initiatives amid the ongoing global pandemic.
The delivery of routine health care during the COVID-19 global pandemic continues to be challenged as public health guidelines and other local/regional/state and other policies are enforced to help prevent the spread of the virus. The objective of this systematic review is to identify the facilitators and barriers affecting the delivery of routine health care services during the pandemic to provide a framework for future research. In total, 32 articles were identified for common themes surrounding facilitators of routine care during COVID-19. Identified constructed in the literature include enhanced education initiatives for parents/patients regarding routine vaccinations, an importance of routine vaccinations as compared to the risk of COVID-19 infection, an enhanced use of telehealth resources (including diagnostic imagery) and identified patient throughput/PPE initiatives. Reviewers identified the following barriers to the delivery of routine care: conservation of medical providers and PPE for non-routine (acute) care delivery needs, specific routine care services incongruent the telehealth care delivery methods, and job-loss/food insecurity. Review results can assist healthcare organizations with process-related challenges related to current and/or future delivery of routine care and support future research initiatives as the global pandemic continues.
