Book excerpt: It is generally well-established that the biomedical model is informed on the assumption that the occurrence of the disease is the result of biological molecules inside the body. This is seen in the view of the biopsychosocial model that the biomedical model is excluding the importance of psychological, social, economic, environmental, spiritual, and behavioral dimensions of the illness. It is essential to create better awareness to accelerate the use of the biopsychosocial model—focusing on the individual as a whole rather than the illness alone. Acceleration of the Biopsychosocial Model in Public Health accelerates the inclusion of the biopsychosocial model in the public health sector in order to achieve universal health coverage. It provides a better understanding of the role of various factors, such as psychological, social, emotional, economic, and behavioral, that are responsible for the development of diseases in order to develop comprehensive prevention and intervention measures. Covering topics such as psychological well-being, public health awareness, and system dynamics, this premier reference source is an excellent resource for public health officials, health therapists, health educators, health psychologists, occupational therapists, palliative care providers, community healthcare providers, hospital administrators, health professionals, medical students, medical libraries, researchers, and academicians.
