Transitional care impact of integrated care projects
Project update:
The objective of this PhD is to evaluate the impact of integrative care projects (ICP’s) on improving transitional care for senior citizens. Therefore, the Belgian health care reform plan “Integrated Care for Better Health” (Integreo) will be followed and evaluated by conducting a mixed method approach. Currently, Merel is working on the quantitative analysis that aims to detect transitional care changes over time in seniors that were included in the ICP’s compared to non-included seniors. In order to analyze possible effects on transitional care outcomes, routinely collected data will mainly be used.
