What is it about?

The number of older people with chronic multiple illnesses, limitations, and need for care is growing. In addition, there is an increasing number of social needs of these people. However, disease-associated and socio-economic needs are not only age-related, but also issues of young people. These people need services from different sectors of our health and social system, but also many different professional and voluntary support and assistance services.

The care concept 'Koordinierungsbüro Gesundheit' organizes and fulfills a regional overall coordination of all coordinating, networking, counseling and informing offers on the level of a county or an independent city, regardless of whether they are provided professionally or voluntarily, by an organization or a network.

The aim is to develop and test a regional coordination office in the model regions of Rosenheim and Main-Spessart. With the 'Health Coordination Office', regional support is established for who are themselves unable to make use of the various support and assistance offers in the system.

 

In a previous project, an ICF-based core set for complex patients was developed. Within the project 'Coordination Office Health', an ICF-based questionnaire was developed and validated.

Several medical practices in the Rosenheim region, and since October 2023 also in the Main-Spessart region, are currently participating in the Health Coordination Office (KoBü). Numerous patients have successfully undergone the coordination process, and solutions for complex situations have been identified with the assistance of a patient navigator. Simultaneously, an evaluation of the processes is taking place.
