SELFIE has three strands of research on integrated chronic care (ICC) for individuals with multi-morbidity. These are divided into 7 Work Packages (WPs)
WP1 Conceptual framework to review ICC models and select most promising ones
Cross-country comparative descriptive research of Integrated Chronic Care (ICC) models for persons with multi-morbidity, including a list of financial/payment schemes that support the implementation of these models; (WP1) (WP2) (WP3)
Intra-country evaluations of financing/payment schemes of ICC models, and Multi-Criteria Decision Analyses (MCDA) of the 16 most promising ICC models; (WP4) (WP5)
Evidence synthesis, and development of implementation strategies that match the different healthcare systems in Europe, and support the transferability of the ICC models also to Central and Eastern European Countries. (WP6) (WP7)
DELIVERABLES
Taxonomy of most promising ICC models for multi-morbid persons. This includes a toolkit of interventions to develop ICC models and embed them in specific health and social care systems.
List of financing/payment schemes with adequate incentives to support the implementation of ICC for multi-morbidity.
Price-setting document explaining the technicalities of deriving a price for ICC models.
Performance assessment tool to monitor the goal achievement of ICC models, this tool will include new indicators that specifically address the quality of care for persons with multi-morbidity.
Strategies for implementation and change management.
