Abstract

The COST CARES project aims to support healthcare cost containment and improve healthcare quality across Europe by developing the research and development necessary for person-centred care (PCC) and health promotion. This paper presents an overview evaluation strategy for testing ‘Exploratory Health Laboratories’ to deliver these aims. Our strategy is theory driven and evidence based, and developed through a multi-disciplinary and European-wide team. Specifically, we define the key approach and essential criteria necessary to evaluate initial testing, and on-going large-scale implementation with a core set of accompanying methods (metrics, models, and measurements). This paper also outlines the enabling mechanisms that support the development of the “Health Labs” towards innovative models of ethically grounded and evidenced-based PCC.

Bibliographical note

Funding Information:
COST Action 15222 ‘Cost Cares’ was funded by the EU Commission to create the impetus in both the research and development required to design and test innovative exploratory health laboratories (EHLs) to implement PCC and HP across the EU. This paper sets out a strategy for evaluating them.

Funding Information:
Funding: This research was partly funded by (1) COST (AGA-CA15222-1-4) “European network for cost containment and improved quality of care”, COST15222—www.COSTCARES.eu, 2016–2020, (2) The Centre for Person-Centred Care at the University of Gothenburg (wwwGPCC.gu.se), Sweden. GPCC is funded by the Swedish Government’s grant for Strategic Research Areas, Care Sciences (Application to Swedish Research Council no. 2009–1088) and co-funded by the University of Gothenburg, Sweden. The work of Roman Andrzej Lewandowski was partially supported by funding from the National Science Centre, Poland (Grant Number: 2015/17/B/HS4/02747). Nicky Britten and Helen Lloyd were partially supported by the National Institute for Health Research Applied Research Collaboration South West Peninsula. The views expressed in this publication are those of the author(s) and not necessarily those of the National Institute for Health Research or the Department of Health and Social Care.

Funding Information:
The WE-CARE project (Grant Agreement 602131) was funded between September 2013 and August 2015 under the EU’s Seventh Framework Programme for Research (FP7). The project and its consortium were convened to tackle cost containment and quality care in recognition of the role these play in ensuring the accessibility and affordability of future health care for EU citizens. A key output—the WE-CARE Roadmap [21]—proposed seven interdependent themes to facilitate this aim. These themes consisted of: (1) Core drivers: Person-Centred care (PCC) and Health Promotion (HP); and (2) five critical enablers for their implementation: technology, quality measures, infrastructure, incentive systems, and contracting strategies.
