Abstract

Heart failure (HF) is one of the most common hospital admissions diagnoses and causes of death in Germany. In the care of HF, there are false incentives owing to quantity-based remuneration and separate remuneration models for inpatient and outpatient care. The research project of RHÖN-KLINIKUM AG, ‘sekTOR-HF’, has been promoted by the German government’s innovation fund and is intended to ensure better care for HF patients in Germany with the help of optimal coordination of the cross-sectoral care process and new incentives in remuneration. Part 1 describes the initial situation and concept that paved the way for the project in 2020. Patient inclusion began in March 2021. After the project has been completed, in November 2023, a second part will present the project evaluation and the results.
