Outreach Visits to Optimize Chronic Care Management in General Practice: A Cluster Randomized Trial
Outreach Visits to Optimize Chronic Care Management in General Practice: A Cluster Randomized Trial
The aim of this project is to motivate and support general practice clinics in implementing the visions and recommendations presented in two of the disease specific programmes for chronic care management (for chronic obstructive lung disease and Type 2 diabetes). These programmes describe evidence based treatment and division of tasks between the municipalities, the hospitals and general practice.
The Facilitator Project is funded by The Danish Ministry of Interior and Health.
In a cluster randomized trial the investigators will explore the efficacy of up to three outreach visits by specially trained GPs. Efficacy data are obtained by means of questionnaires at regional databases.
Inclusion Criteria:
General Practices working in the capital region in Denmark
Exclusion Criteria:
General Practices where the facilitator works.
