The focus on this vision led to development of a framework that further elucidated four different interdependent domains framework for the good of patients.

This has been accelerated by several health models like provider communication cooperation and patient centered multidisciplinary care to ensure direct incorporation of public health in community resources ((Parekh et al., 2014)).
