Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The main study parameter is incremental cost-effectiveness. To measure this outcome data sources will be used and linked at the individual level. At the start of the study (t=0) and at the end (t=22) data on care usage and costs will be collected. These data will be translated into cost using standard cost prices from the Dutch guideline for economic evaluations. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1.Patient experience of care The secondary study parameter is insight into the patient experience of care. To assess their experience focus groups will be organized. Four main topics will be discussed, namely: care before the new approach, the new approach, the collaboration between the professionals and the experienced effects of the new approach. Furthermore, information about self-efficacy (PAM-13 and SE+IN itemlist), proactive coping (UPCC), and quality of life (SF-12) will be collected using questionnaires 2.Process evaluation A process evaluation of this study will be done simultaneously, as a process evaluation can provide valuable insight on the practicalities of the intervention. Data on recruitment and reach of the population will be gathered during the inclusion of patiens in this study. Information on integration of care with the social domain and the mental domain will also be gathered. Additional questionnaires will be gathered about patient satisfaction with care, using a modified version of the NPS (Reichheld, 2003). The nature of the communication between care professional and patient, will be assessed using a HCCQ questionnaire (Jochems, Duivenvoorden, van der Feltz-Cornelis, & van Dam, 2014; Czajkowska, Wang, Hall, Sewitch, & Körner, 2017). Furthermore, a questionnaire will be used combining the assessment of the acceptability (Acceptability of Intervention Measure - AIM), appropriateness (Intervention Appropriateness Measure - IAM), feasibility (Feasibility of Intervention Measure - FIM), and perceived and experienced effectiveness of the intervention (Weiner, Lewis, & Stanick, 2017). | — |
