We study the effect of health care interventions ranging from new technologies, new organisational features to new payment schemes. For this purpose we conduct registry analyses and/or apply survey methods. We apply the most appropriate method of evaluation depending on whether we are dealing with a randomised controlled trial, a natural experiment or a laboratory experiment. The objective is in any case to identify and understand reasons for a causal mechanism. The theme can be divided into effects of health status and effects of health care interventions.
Health care interventions
- Global physician expenditure cap and inequality in access to care
- Can the use of electronic health records in general practice reduce hospitalizations for diabetes patients? Evidence from a natural experiment
- Impact of a GP disease management programme with feedback reports and peer comparisons on inequalities in ACSC admissions
- Changes in referral options for GPs increase the rate of magnetic resonance imaging for low back pain patients – evidence from a natural experiment using Danish nationwide data
- Changes in referral options for GPs and surgery rates for low back pain – evidence from a natural experiment using Danish nationwide data
- Point-of-care testing of HbA1c in Type 2 diabetes care in general practice and the effect on hospital outpatient visits and inpatient admissions related to diabetes care. Evidence from a natural experiment in Danish general practice
- The outcomes of introducing robot surgery. The case of hysterectomies
- The cost and effects of colorectal cancer screening
- Economic evaluation of three interventions in intensive care.
- Economic evaluation of the Mind My Mind intervention (an intervention targeting children with mental illness) compared to treatment as usual
- Evaluation of interventions (SHERPA and IPS) aiming to increase labour market participation for people with mental illness
- Evaluation eHealthyHeart - a project which aims at improving mental health among patients with heart disease (using cognitive behavioural therapy via an e-health intervention)
Health status
- Analysis of the association between school children's SDQ-total difficulties and impact scores and their individual health care costs, school performance and parents’ labour market situation
- Health care consumption patterns pre- and post Alzheimer diagnosis
- In sickness and health: Does acquired brain damage lead to divorce
