This Randomized Controlled Trial aims to evaluate effectiveness and cost effectiveness of this transmural collaborative care model with Consultation Letter (TCCCL) in patients with MDD and concomitant (sub chronic pain.
The central mental health issue is the role that the public health system should play in the custody of dangerous people; the cost-effectiveness of this model, the accuracy of risk assessment and tractability of people with severe personality disorders are also debatable.
Outcome measures include the quality of the retinal photographs, the general practitioners' diagnostic accuracy, the acceptability of this intervention to patients, general practice staff and ophthalmologists, screening rates, appropriate monitoring of early stage disease, and the cost-effectiveness of this model, compared to usual care.
Further research into the value of consistent sessions, the professional edge and the cost-effectiveness of this model is required.
Finally, further evaluation with a randomized controlled trial is required to confirm the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of this model of care.
45 The Bristol shared care glaucoma study 47 suggested the non-cost-effectiveness of this model was due to re-referrals back to the hospital from the community-based clinics and closer follow-up intervals in community-based clinics.
In general, studies of the TCP program to date are not robust, making it difficult to draw conclusions on effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of this model of post-acute care.
NSO cost effectiveness: Review the cost effectiveness of the NSO model and some of the functions performed by NSOs.
To date, there have been no randomised controlled trials (RCTs) which have evaluated the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of different models of care in low vision.
