PubMed Rather than using the internet to find the location of a country, they can look at a globe or physical map in their textbook. The evidence was inconsistent regarding the impact on cost of provision (17 studies reported a reduction, two an increase and 20 no difference); community care activity (four studies reported a reduction, five an increase, and one no difference); secondary care activity (no studies reported an increase, four found a reduction, and two no difference); and overall healthcare utilisation (two systematic reviews found the evidence was unclear). Baxter SK, Blank L, Woods HB, Payne N, Rimmer M, Goyder E. Using logic model methods in systematic review synthesis: describing complex pathways in referral management interventions. Analysis indicated evidence of perceived improved quality of care, evidence of increased patient satisfaction, and evidence of improved access to care. The study aimed to carry out a systematic review of the effects of integration or co-ordination between healthcare services, or between health and social care on service delivery outcomes including effectiveness, efficiency and quality of care. 1) Enhance the Competitive Advantage. Models of integrated care may enhance patient satisfaction, increase perceived quality of care, and enable access to services, although the evidence for other outcomes including service costs remains unclear. 2008;6:78110.

One particular limitation relates to the lack of statistical summary of effectiveness (meta-analysis) although we would argue that not only did the heterogeneity of interventions and outcomes preclude this type of analysis, but also, in exploring the complexity of the area a strength of evidence approach was beneficial. List of Disadvantages of Vertical Integration. Int J Geriat Psychiatry. Health Serv Manag Res. 2008;8:193. Thirty five studies were carried out in primary care/community contexts, 24 studies were carried out solely in hospital settings, and two were carried out in nursing homes. The NHS Five Year Forward View Plan published in 2014 [1] sets out how services need to change, and emphasises the requirement for greater integration of care [2]. 2014;25:12238. Four of six international comparator studies similarly reported increased satisfaction amongst older, acute and paediatric patient populations following service integration, case management and patient-centred medical home interventions [119, 136, 150, 159]. 2015;10:e0132340. Levelt E, Thwaites B, Yadegarfar G. Integrated care pathway for acute coronary syndromes: does it help? For studies using comparative design we considered sources of potential bias based on the Cochrane criteria (selection bias, performance bias, attrition bias, detection bias, reporting bias) [14].

In line with Cochrane recommendation we did not score elements, and instead provided a narrative rather than numerical indication of quality [14]. 3. 2007;134:1205. While there were large numbers of studies from both primary/community services, and acute care, the larger group was initiatives implemented outside hospital settings. Johnstone RP, Jones AR, Burton C, Fowell A. Hawthorne G, Grzebalski DK. London: Nuffield Trust; 2017. Milbank Q. 2018;18:5. Soljak M, Cecil E, Gunn L, Broddle A, Hamilton S, Tahir A, et al. There were limited differences between outcomes reported by UK and international studies, and overall the literature had a limited consideration of effects on service users. J Interprof Care. Can Fam Physician. One of two international comparator studies (reported in three papers) supported the finding that quality of care was perceived by patients to have improved [123,124,125]. Highly complex system-wide interventions such as models of integrated care provide considerable challenges for systematic review methods [8].

In exploring consistency as well as volume when assessing strength of evidence, we have sought to some extent to mitigate this limitation. Is case management effective in reducing the risk of unplanned hospital admissions for older people? New models of care may be best targeted to particular patient groups (such as those with complex needs) rather than being seen as a panacea for all. Abdul AA, Muhammad NA, Sulong S, Aljunid S.

Barriers and facilitators to the implementation of lay health worker programmes to improve access to maternal and child health: qualitative evidence synthesis. Doubts regarding the ability of new models to deliver expected benefits have also recently been voiced, with a report from the National Audit Office concluding that progress towards integration has been slower and less successful than envisaged [6]. A systematic review and meta-analysis. The drive to introduce new models in the NHS has been formidable, with vanguard sites across England funded to test seven new care models that integrate services around the patient. 2012;20:20522. Hussain M, Seitz D. Integrated models of Care for Medical Inpatients with Psychiatric Disorders: a systematic review. 2006;14:50820. We also acknowledge a potential issue of publication bias, with studies reporting less positive outcomes potentially under-represented in the review. Appendix S1. In this section, we will analyze two case studies where integration testing and end-to-end testing were used to address specific challenges in software development. BMC Health Serv Res. J Integrat Care. Following rating of the outcomes in each individual study, we then applied an overall rating to the evidence across all studies which reported the same outcome. However, the wide variety of models of integrated care, and multiple and complex elements contained therein, together with the heterogeneity of outcomes measured, contra-indicated the use of summary statistics. 2009;57(12):232837. While there appeared to be no clear pattern of differential outcomes between settings or initiatives, there appeared to be potential for more positive outcomes amongst those categorised by authors as having complex needs, although currently most research evidence comes from studies in older adults. New England J Med. Other findings from this study including factors influencing implementation and outcomes are reported elsewhere (Baxter et al. statement and Stokes JPM, Alam R, Checkland K, Suderaghi-Sohi S, Bower P.

Recognition is growing that rather than new models of integration within services, reform at scale is required, with reconfiguration at a whole systems level including in the UK new forms of commissioning and contracting (the way that NHS organisations assess the needs of an area and then draw up contracts with suitable providers) [3]. 2015;20:2614. 2012;29:20812. 2011;11(1):207.

Overall therefore the UK studies were all considered to be at risk of potential bias, with none achieving all six criteria for reducing potential sources of bias.
