Abstract

The presented studies reviewed in this chapter support efforts for increased consideration of patient benefit as an essential quality criterion in the assessment of integrated care. Especially where it is difficult to clearly differentiate between services in terms of medical and financial aspects, comprehensive information on patient benefits (and to that of communities as well) can be very useful in prioritizing approaches to care and treatment. Studies of this type can thus help to stimulate fresh discussion and lead to the formulation of increasingly person-centred care concepts in the long term.
