Introduction

The contemporary global society is entering a very diverse and challenging era, where the majority of the population is developing very unique and individualized demands from various industries. This era can be ideally defined as the age of integration, where the numerous advances in the field of technology and modern medicine have enabled health care to be provided to the population in a very personal and comprehensive manner. People no longer have to identify health care as an impersonal or an isolated function, as they now have the resources to attain the relevant services, without having to make too drastic changes in their daily lives. Although technology is on of the most dominant factors which have contributed to the development of this demand towards the health care industry, another very significant factor is the sociological changes in the general population. As per the historical perspective, individuals emphasized a credible amount of care regarding their health standards, and were willing to take out the adequate time from their lives to focus on their health needs.
