The critical success factors for geriatric coaching are the risk-based identification of candidates with high and impactable escalation risk as well as the recruitment and coaching of participants by specifically trained specialists. Together with VIACTIV and DCC Risk Analytics, the smartCasaplus program has been improved to include AI-based models in the prediction of influenceable risks for identi-fication and risk-adjusted propensity scores matching during evaluation.

This article introduces the principle of natural experiments and their statistical analysis and, in the first step, discusses their implementation in previous NPI studies. The validity of many studies on the effectiveness of NPIs is limited because, on the one hand, there are often no or only weak control conditions and, on the other hand, because there are problems in the specification of the analysis models. It is often implicitly assumed that only NPIs can slow down the infection process because there are no control variables for any other causes. In the second step, a natural experiment is analyzed about the effectiveness of five measures in the second Corona wave. Switzerland (where these measures were not taken) and neighboring Baden-Württemberg serve as comparison regions. It turns out that the closure of close-contact services causes a reduction in the effective reproduction number, i.e., dampens the wave of infections. However, closing schools and daycare facilities as well as hotels is not effective.","PeriodicalId":486737,"journal":{"name":"Monitor Versorgungsforschung","volume":"53 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139810249","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The additional benefit is assessed by the Federal Joint Committee (G-BA), after which the reimbursement amounts are negotiated with the National Association of Statutory Health Insurance Funds (GKV-Spitzenverband). Drugs that are given a new area of application are also subject to benefit assessment. These include extensions of the indication for paediatric patients.

The number of patients with UTRI diagnoses and antibiotic prescriptions per practice and the duration of sick leave per patient were compared over time. A total of 1,403,907 patients from general practices (GP) were included, 48% of whom were female. The number of URTI patients per practice was significantly higher in 2022 than in 2019 (732 vs. 464, 58%, p<0.001) and this was observed for both women (56%, p<0.001) and men (60%, p<0.001). The post-pandemic increase in the number of URTI diagnoses correlated with age and was highest in the age group between 18–30 years (22%, p<0.001) and lowest in older patients >70 years (3%). Both the number of patients per practice on sick leave due to URTI (184 vs. 92) and the average duration of sick leave (+2 days) increased from 2019 to 2022. Our data suggest a dramatic increase in the incidence of URTI among all demographic subgroups in Germany between 2019 and 2022, which was associated with a tremendous impact on socioeconomic variables such as the frequency or duration of sick leave. These data could be of great importance in current pandemic management and the management of future pandemics.","PeriodicalId":486737,"journal":{"name":"Monitor Versorgungsforschung","volume":"51 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139869459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
