From Extractive to Inclusive Health Preservation Model

Nowadays, the healthcare systems of several countries have reached an efficiency threshold, therefore, even increased funding will not significantly impact life expectancy, particularly in terms of healthy life expectancy. This situation underscores the necessity of complementing national healthcare systems, which focus on early diagnosis and treatment of diseases, with a multi-level primary prevention system that extends beyond the traditional boundaries of healthcare.

In this regard, the inclusive model has been proposed, focused on health preservation, in contrast to the extractive model that emphasizes the exploitation of biological organism reserves. This inclusive model is represented as an “onion bulb” structure, where each layer consists of a set of interconnected measures within a multi-level policy aimed at strengthening and maintaining the population health.
