Project information

ICARE4EU will describe and analyse innovative approaches in multidisciplinary care for people with multiple chronic conditions currently existing in Europe. Expert organizations will be approached in 30 European countries. These organizations will provide information about the characteristics of care programmes aimed at patients with multimorbidity that have been initiated in their country. This will include information about for instance the target group of the programmes, the disciplines involved, the procedures and financing as well as the way patients and informal carers are actively involved. Additionally, country level information about the health care system and its characteristics will be gathered. Based on this information key characteristics for successful management and implementation strategies will be identified. The duration of the project is 2013 to 2016 and is financially supported by the Health Programme 2008-2013 of the European Commission. For more information see PDF below.
