Despite its importance, follow-up care can be challenging due to several factors:
Patient Non-Compliance: Patients may miss follow-up appointments or fail to follow care instructions. Resource Limitations: Lack of time, staffing, or financial resources can hinder effective follow-up. Communication Barriers: Miscommunication between healthcare providers and patients can lead to gaps in care. Complex Care Needs: Patients with multiple health issues may require more intensive follow-up care.
