DISEASES, RECRUITMENT

A participation rate of at least 20% of the contacted general practices and 60% of the contacted patients was regarded as an indication of a feasible recruitment strategy. The lower threshold for attendance of patients, i.e., the retention rate, was set at 90% [Fidelity was evaluated from process data registered by the GP in REDCap (Research Electronic Data Capture) [The MultiMorbidity Questionnaire (MMQ) was developed to provide a measure of needs-based quality of life among patients with multimorbidity [To assess whether the coordinated care program might be able to produce a change in outcomes in a larger-scale trial, elements of the program theory were assessed by exploring whether changes in medications and/or detection of new diseases occurred in the intervention group. Changes in symptoms, diagnoses, and medication prescriptions were assessed and registered during the extended consultations and at follow-up consultations by the GP to obtain a preliminary indication of the effectiveness of the intervention in terms of changes in health care provision. The GP registered in text online the findings from the consultation. As such, it was the GP’s perception that guided what information was registered. This information was only collected in the intervention arm.
