PERFECT – PERFormance, Effectiveness and Cost of Treatment episodes

The project monitored the content, quality and cost-effectiveness of treatment episodes in specialised medical care.

Objectives

The project created and maintained indicators and models for monitoring the content, quality and cost-effectiveness of treatment episodes in specialised medical care. The project also assessed factors that influence differences between regions and service providers shown by the indicators.

Implementation

For selected disease groups and procedures with sufficient significance in terms of costs and patient numbers, comparative databases with data on patients and procedures will be created by combining data from different registers. The material can be used to create interesting indicators and to investigate factors that may explain differences between regions and service providers.
