What is convergence in health?
[kon-ver´jens] the coordinated inclination of the two lines of sight towards their common point of fixation, or the point itself.
What is a divergence in medical terms?
1. A moving or spreading apart or in different directions. 2. The spreading of branches of the neuron to form synapses with several other neurons.
What is divergence and convergence?
Divergence generally means two things are moving apart while convergence implies that two forces are moving together. Divergence indicates that two trends move further away from each other while convergence indicates how they move closer together.
What is convergence in physiology?
convergence-single neuron within a pool may receive impulses from two or more fibers(to summate impulses from different source) divergence-impulses leaving a neuron in a pool passed into several output fibers(amplify impulse) effector nerves.
Is there a convergence in health?
Value in healthcare is driven by increasing quality of care while reducing cost. I propose defining convergence in healthcare as: The collaboration of payers and providers to provide population health management, and. Divergent healthcare organizations becoming similar organizations.
In what year should health convergence occur?
We suggest that a roadmap to achieve “Grand Convergence” in global health should include more radical changes and work for increasing efficiency with equity to achieve a “Grand convergence” in health status across the countries by 2035.
Why is convergence and divergence important?
Convergent series goes to a finite specific value so the more terms we add the closer to this we get. Divergent series on the other hand does not, they either grow indefinitaly in some direction or oscillate, as such the addition of more terms will cause it change value drastically.
What is the difference between convergence and divergence physiology?
Divergence allows one neuron to communicate with many other neurons in a network. Convergence allows a neuron to receive input from many neurons in a network.
