Vertical
aspects of mental and physical health care focus on prevention but stem from a
curative care model (Vogenberg, & Santilli, 2018). Strategic vertical equity promotes the linear progression
between, prevention and treatment of mental illness or psychological disorders
considering the equality principles for the entire population (Lund, 2012). The sectoral and
cross-sectoral
collaboration allows the developmental actors to respond and acknowledge the psychosocial needs of the patients and facilitate population with a real boost in the scaling up mental health services worldwide (Vogenberg, & Santilli, 2018).
The socioeconomic program to elevate poverty such as cash transfer program and microfinance found to be effective in promoting mental health among patient (Lund, 2012). In such programs, the western problem-solving approaches are followed and primarily health or disease-oriented such as malaria or AIDS (Dei, & Sebastian, 2018). The programs are very appealing to western funders to attack a health problem and formulate the strategy to eradicate it. Western state shows immense produce for conquering polio or another disease in the country (Vogenberg, & Santilli, 2018). Hence, they often lack sustainability because they lack in having community ownership (Lafond, Charlesworth, Roberts, 2016). The expert of nation guides the community what should be the fixed problem (Oliver, Lorenc, & Innvær, 2014: Fafard, P. (2015). Vertical programs deal with the specific health issues when poverty prevails, and epidemic flourish, general health services are least concerned in such community (Vogenberg, & Santilli, 2018).

Vertical
programs are least effective to meet the demands of the general issues of the
community (Sodha, & Dietz 2015: Owusu-Manu, Badu, Agyekum, Akom, 2015:
Bartley, 2016). Vertical approach comprised of three components, i.e.,
monitoring & evaluation, intervention delivery and intervention strategies
(Boerma, & Mathers, 2015). The intervention strategy focus on making plan
and strategies to overcome the health issues from society (Keliddar,
Mosadeghrad, & Jafari-Sirizi, 2017). The monitoring & evaluation intend
to explore the impact of intervention delivery (Dei, & Sebastian, 2018).
The intervention delivery does not come under the vertical program; rather it
has linked with vertical-horizontal programs (Oliver, Lorenc, & Innvær,
2014: Owusu-Manu, Badu, Agyekum, Akom, 2015). The world health organisation
designed a program to treat TB through direct observed Treatment Strategy
(Vogenberg, & Santilli, 2018). Another program to control the polio was
National immunisation program polio. An onchocerciasis control program is a
comes under a vertical approach and achieved its target to control the health
issue in the community (Keliddar, Mosadeghrad, & Jafari-Sirizi, 2017). In
short, vertical programs endorse social development to promote mental health
and to prevent mental or psychological/physical issues.
In contrast,
horizontal program work for facilitating and prevention the community responses
to manage their health problem. The horizontal program provides the cost of
effective mental and physical health care package. For example, the treatment
of mental health issues or intervention delivery costs $ 3-4 per head of
population in Africa (Patel et al., 2008). Such programs found to be very
effective, but due to lack of funding and resources, the beneficial results
cannot be achieved (Sodha, & Dietz 2015). Health care programs are based on
the horizontal system for providing general health-oriented services to the
population (Dei, & Sebastian, 2018).
Such as widespread immunisation, has been implemented to ensure that the
children of a specific age are receiving the immunisation regimen as
recommended by world health organisation (Sodha, & Dietz 2015: Owusu-Manu,
Badu, Agyekum, Akom, 2015). African program for onchocerciasis control program
was launched in 1995 to eliminate the onchocerciasis problem and develop the
socioeconomic development in the fourteen countries (Sodha, & Dietz 2015).
Mental and
physical health care the significant issue of any society. Reach nation
comprised of multifaceted population. The delivery of mental and health care
services concerning equality is hard to intact. According to literature both
the vertical and horizontal approached are imperative in promoting mental and
health services and health status among the population (Vogenberg, &
Santilli, 2018). The mixed approach of vertical and horizontal approaches in
intervention delivery found to effective in literature bringing about effective
results (Boerma, & Mathers, 2015). The health of the population in any
country primarily depends upon the general and specific community and
health-oriented services (Keliddar, Mosadeghrad, & Jafari-Sirizi, 2017).
The economic social and political plays a significant role in eradicating poor
health issues and provides extensive understanding regarding health-oriented
concepts.
