Integrated care aims to provide proactive, coordinated care for patients through collaboration between health sectors. It involves collecting common patient data, stratifying patients by risk level, and creating joint care plans in cross-sector teams. The goals are to improve the patient experience through more coherent care, support self-management, and make the health system more sustainable by preventing unnecessary hospitalizations and costs. An integrated care project in Odense has established the necessary foundations and is currently testing collaboration models and common digital tools for elderly patients and those with mental health issues, with the first patients enrolled. The project will be fully operational on September 1, 2014 and evaluated by the end of 2015.

10. 3. How do we work in Integrated Care?
Test of large-scale co-operation models
(stress, anxiety, and depression/the elderly medical patient)
Proactive and common efforts rather than sectorial and late
treatment (common professional fundament)
Establishment of common data warehouse
Model for stratification of risk patients
Description of ideal typical courses (patient programs)
The user
organizations
are included
in the whole
process
Committing agreements
Common task and common responsibility in cross-sectoral
teams
Case conferences with the purpose
Annual evaluation
of learning and adjustment
