Overview

Special Communication demonstrates that the DAMA model improves patient satisfaction and reduces health disparities in disability care.

Key Points

  • The DAMA model reduces emergency department visits for persons with disabilities, improving overall health access.
  • Data from DAMA centers indicate significant decreases in unplanned hospital admissions, enhancing care effectiveness.
  • This model consolidates multiple healthcare services into single visits, optimizing the patient experience and treatment efficiency.
  • By establishing national standards, the DAMA model can enhance health care accessibility for individuals with disabilities.
