3. Evaluation of services
• Do we know what is the current situation?
• Are we prepared to assess the process of change?
• Do we have indicators and methods to analyse the different aspects the reform is
aiming at?
• What are the cost-consequences?
• How well have we considered the use of various data sources?
• Based on existing information and knowledge can we produce tools for planning and
optimisation?

service providers, road networks, public transportation etc.
• Electronic patient recording systems and other IT-solutions developing quickly
• Evaluation scheme established and included in proposed legislation related to social
and health care
• Planning and development of regional data pools started
• Good nationally agreed clinical guidelines

patients’ time and travel
8. Key objectives
• WP5: to develope an automated grouping and costing service for cost analyses of
integrated services and to support the other WPs in proper cost-effectiveness analyses
• WP6: to develope a set of interfaces to access the data and an interactive tool for
optimising service locations and their allocations for given cost provision site for specific
patient groups
