The biophysical model tends to focus on the aspects of patient pathology without taking into account either social factors or doctor-patient negotiations. This generates a variety of effects. In terms of outpatient care and medication, it's found that patients follow the outpatient regimen based not upon perceived medical need as much as they do based upon how much they LIKE their doctor. This is true to the point that patients will actually tend to vary from protocol when it's expressed by a doctor they feel is competant but unlikeable. The biosocial model stupulates that the patient-doctor relationship is one of negotiation and two-way communications. Additionally, the biophysical model doesn't take sociological/societal factors into account. In this sense, biophysical is perhaps less well adapted to epidemiological aspects of disease control. Some feel that the biosocial model is the evolutionary offspring of the older biophysical.

What is the western health model biomedical model?
The Biomedical Model. The biomedical model of medicine was developed in the 19th century as a response to the medical knowledge of that time. The knowledge being that man was a part of nature and therefore could be studied in the same way as nature, at a cellular level. The biomedical model was highly successful in identifying main causes of illness and death at that time, these were accidents and infections. The biomedical model suggests that man only got il from things which invaded the body or from accidental damage. Also the biomedical model suggests that man is either healthy or ill - there is no 'in between.' However, as the century progressed individuals no longer died from infections, society changed with industrialisation, living conditions improved, nutrition improved and new illnesses such as Coronary Heart Disease and cancer became the leading causes of mortality and morbidity. The biomedical model no longer was as effective due to the fact that other factors, social and psychological, played a part in illness. The biomedical model still stands today in identifying illnesses and diseases but not what causes them and what causes death.
