Patients can receive counseling on issues like food and fitness, as well as preventive services, during their medical visits. Additionally, these visits can assist in managing chronic conditions or addressing acute difficulties (Adults' Access to Preventive/Ambulatory Health Services - NCQA, 2023).

This could entail placing facilities near areas that are convenient for public transportation or providing telemedicine services or mobile clinics to individuals who are unable to travel. 2. **Follow-up Care**: Monitor patients' progress and adherence to treatment regimens by providing follow- up care. 3. **Data Collection and Analysis**: To evaluate the efficacy of services and pinpoint areas in need of improvement, gather and evaluate data on a regular basis. 1. Early Detection: Screenings and check-ups are examples of preventive services that can aid in the early detection of diseases or health concerns, when treatment is simpler and less expensive. Better health outcomes for patients may result from this. 2. Continuity of Care: Having regular access to care helps guarantee continuity, which is linked to improved patient outcomes and satisfaction. 3. Reducing Health gaps: We can detect and treat gaps and make sure that every population has an equal chance at achieving favorable health outcomes by monitoring access to care.
