Abstract:
Introduction To explore Norwegian general practitioners’ experiences with care coordination in primary health care. Methods Qualitative study using data from five focus groups with 32 general practitioners in Norway. We analysed the data using systematic text condensation, a descriptive and explorative method for thematic cross-case analysis of qualitative data. Results The general practitioners had different notions of care pathways. They expressed a wish and an obligation to be involved in planning and coordination of primary health-care services, but they experienced organisational and financial barriers that limited their involvement and contribution. General practitioners reported lack of information about and few opportunities for involvement in formal coordination initiatives, and they missed informal arenas for dialogue with other primary health-care professionals. They argued that the general practitioner’s role as coordinator should be recognised by other parties and that they needed financial compensation for contributions and attendance in meetings with the municipality. Discussion General practitioners need informal arenas for dialogue with other primary health-care professionals and access to relevant information to promote coordinated care. There might be an untapped potential for improving patient care involving general practitioners more in planning and coordinating services at the system level. Financial compensation of general practitioners contribution may promote increased involvement by general practitioners.

Abstract:
SummaryThe costs of care in the U.S. are very high, in part because canre is relatively uncoordinated. To begin to address this and other issues, health care reform was passed, including the notion of accountable care. Under acountable care arrangements, providers are at risk for the costs of the care they provide to groups of patients. Evaluation of costs has made it clear that a large proportion of these costs are in the post-acute setting, and also that many specific problems such as adverse events and unnecessary readmissions occur following transitions. However, the electronic health records of today do not provide a great deal of assistance with the coordination of care, and even the best organizations have relatively primitive systems with respect to care coordination, even though communication is absolutely central to better coordination of care and health information technology (HIT) is a powerful lever for improving communication. This paper identifies specific gaps in care coordination today, presents a framework for better coordinating care using HIT, then describes how specific technologies can be leveraged. Also discussed are the need to build and test specific interventions to improve HIT-related care coordination tools, and the key policy steps needed to accomplish this.

Abstract:
People with chronic complex conditions continue to experience increasing health system fragmentation and poor coordination. To reverse these trends, one solution has been an investment in effective models of care coordination that use a care coordinator workforce. Care coordinators are not a homogenous workforce – but an applied professional role, providing direct and indirect care, and is often undertaken by nurses, allied health professionals, social workers or general practitioners. In Australia, there is no training curriculum nor courses, nor nationally recognised professional quality standards for the care coordinator workforce. With the growing complexity and fragmentation of the health care system, health system literacy – shared understanding of the roles and contributions of the different workforce professions, organisations and systems, among patients and indeed the health workforce is required. Efforts to improve health system literacy among the health workforce are increasing at a policy, practice and research level. However, insufficient evidence exists about what are the health system literacy needs of care coordinators, and what is required for them to be most effective. Key areas to build a health system literate care coordination workforce are presented. Care coordination is more than an optional extra, but one of the only ways we are going to be able to provide equitable health services for people with chronic complex conditions. People with low health literacy require more support with the coordination of their care, therefore we need to build a high performing care coordinator workforce that upholds professional quality standards, and is health literacy responsive.

Abstract:
Background: This mixed method research aimed to investigate health needs of older people and the attributes of the Elderly Care Managers (ECMs), and to evaluate the outcomes of two ECMs coordination. Methods: Three phases were: 1) a field survey of the health needs of 94 older persons; 2) group discussions between ten relevant persons involved in ECMs characteristics; 3) two ECMs coordinating with health-related agencies and measuring the outcomes of older people who needed assistance. Results: 63.1% of the participants had difficulties with their health, 12.8% of them had no caregiver, 26.6% of them had >1 health condition. Group talks dealt with the characteristics, role and attributes of ECMs. The two-month of ECMs coordination with health-related agencies according to older adults' needs, and made home visits encouraged the aged to acquire knowledge on their diseases. Conclusion: ECMs’s coordination with health-related agencies could support the needs of those of advanced age.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this study is to assess the relationship between patient-centricity, care coordination and delivery of quality care for older people with multiple chronic conditions. Care coordination is defined as a process where physicians, nurses and allied professionals work together to clarify responsibilities, care objectives, treatment plans and discharge plans for delivery of unified care. Patient-centricity is defined as an approach of delivering quality care to patients that focuses on creating a positive experience for them. Design/methodology/approach A literature review was used to identify measures of care coordination and then partial least square structural equation modeling was used to assess interrelationship among patient-centricity, measures of care coordination and delivery of quality care. Findings Results reveal that care coordinated pathways consist of IT-enabled coordination, interprofessional teamwork, information sharing and facilitative infrastructure requirements and are influenced by patient-centricity. These are deliberate requisites for delivering of quality care. Results of this study present a validated model of care coordination for older people, which may be further explored to refine the concept of care coordination. Practical implications Based on these results, practitioners may develop an overarching strategy to deliver seamless care and to achieve better health outcomes. Measures of care coordination may be used as a performance benchmarking tool and will also help in the process mapping of hospitals. Social implications This paper highlights how patient-centricity may be achieved by focusing on coordinated care processes. This understanding may help in designing processes, which in turn deliver health as a social good in an effective manner. Originality/value Results of this study present such a validated model for care coordination, which can be used by researchers.

Abstract:
Abstract Care coordination is a vehicle for improving patient-provider and provider-provider communication to improve outcomes and reduce unnecessary healthcare utilization, particularly for adults with multimorbidity. However, the clinical effectiveness of coordination at the population level remains unknown. This study examined the association between experiences of care coordination with subsequent health and healthcare outcomes among US adults over age 50. The analytic sample (n=695) included respondents from the Health and Retirement Study who had at least two chronic conditions, completed an Experimental Module on Coordinated Care in 2016, and were re-interviewed in 2018. Three domains of care coordination were examined as predictors: perceptions of coordination; using tangible supports (e.g., seeing a care coordinator); and using technical supports (e.g., patient portal). A range of outcomes related to health (i.e., self-rated health, functioning, pain) and healthcare (i.e., medication adherence, visits, hospitalizations, care satisfaction) were assessed in 2018. Weighted linear and logistic regression models, adjusted for demographic and socioeconomic characteristics, were fit for each lagged outcome. Higher engagement with tangible supports was positively associated with subsequent hospitalization (OR: 1.08, 95%CI: 1.01-1.15), greater pain (OR: 1.11 , 95%CI: 1.03-1.20), and marginally worse self-rated health (B=-0.02, p< 0.063). Better perceptions of coordination were also positively associated with care satisfaction (B=0.03, p< 0.020). Care coordination was not associated with functioning, adherence, or number of medical visits. Findings indicate the salience of tangible support for coordination among older adults with multi-morbidity, and that positive perceptions of coordination contribute to healthcare satisfaction.

Abstract:
Fragmented and uncoordinated care following active cancer treatment is an important public health problem for many of the 13 million adult cancer survivors not receiving necessary or routine follow-up care. Patients may receive surgery, radiotherapy, or chemotherapy in different departments or health care organizations. The coordination among and between multiple care providers, survivors, and family members is of great importance to cancer survivors to ensure optimal care. While frameworks and models are widely used to guide coordination improvement efforts for chronic diseases, the diversity of these models makes it difficult to choose which model is the best fit for coordinating cancer survivors’ care. This paper analyzes common models used for coordinating chronic and complex disease care to identify key elements in the models that are essential for successfully applying a model to cancer survivors to improve their care coordination.

Abstract:
Background: Improving coordination of care is a major challenge for health systems internationally. Tools are required to evaluate alternative approaches to improve coordination from the patient perspective. This study aimed to develop and validate a new measure of coordination for use in a primary care setting. Methods: Four methods were used. Firstly, a concept analysis was undertaken to identify the essential attributes of coordination drawing upon literature from health and organisational studies and to establish its boundaries with related concepts such as continuity of care, integration and patient centred care. Secondly, existing measures of coordination were reviewed to assess the extent to which item content reflected the definition arising from the concept analysis and to appraise psychometric properties. Thirdly, a new instrument, the Care Coordination Questionnaire (CCQ), was developed utilising items from existing questionnaires and others developed following focus groups with 30 patients. Ten cognitive interviews were used to evaluate the items generated. Finally, the CCQ was administered in a cross sectional survey to 980 patients. Item and model analyses were performed. Test-retest reliability was evaluated through a second administration of the CCQ after two weeks. Concurrent validity was evaluated through correlation with the Client Perceptions of Coordination Questionnaire (CPCQ). Construct validity was evaluated through correlation with responses to a global coordination item and a satisfaction scale and the testing of two a prior hypotheses: i) coordination scores would decrease with increasing numbers of providers and ii) coordination scores would decrease with increasing numbers of long-term conditions. Results: The concept analysis suggested that coordination should be considered as a process for the organisation of patient care characterised by: purposeful activity, information exchange, knowledge of roles and responsibilities, and responsiveness to change. The systematic review identified 5 existing measures of coordination and a further 10 measures which incorporated a coordination subscale. Only one demonstrated conceptual coverage but had poor psychometric properties. A new instrument was therefore developed and tested as described above. 299 completed surveys were returned. Respondents were predominantly elderly and of white ethnicity; approximately half were female. Five items were deleted following item analyses. Model analysis suggested a four factor two-level model of coordination comprising of 18 items. This correlated well with the CPCQ, the global coordination item and satisfaction scale. The a priori hypotheses were upheld. Retest reliability was acceptable at the patient group level. Conclusions: The CCQ has demonstrated good psychometric characteristics in terms of item responses, reliability and construct validity. Further exploration of these properties is required in a larger, more diverse sample before it can be recommended for widespread use, but it shows potential utility in the evaluation of different approaches to coordinating care.

Abstract:
We are trying to bring attention and focus on the important role the nursing profession plays in improving patient’s experience and outcomes. Nurses are best positioned at the center of information exchanges and play critical through their routine interventions. Tasks that are often perceived as simple routine tasks, like: care planning, medication reconciliation, communications with the patient and other professionals, discharge instructions and education, are the very foundation of the successful care coordination intervention.

Abstract:

Problem: Medical and nursing literature poorly identify primary care providers' (PCP) relationship to care coordination (CC). Primary care providers' education, experience, and perspective, contribute to: (a) assessments of patient's care coordination needs, and (b) variability in behavior to address needs. Dissimilar approaches to CC by PCPs affect work relationships and office flow.

Purpose: To pre-pilot a new tool describing PCPs' knowledge, perception, and behavior regarding CC. Methods: Primary care physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants were surveyed.

Analysis: Frequencies and percentages provided sample characteristics. Descriptive statistics analyzed provider responses within and between groups. Narratives were analyzed for themes. Tool refinement is suggested however, the tool does describe PCPs and CC activities.

Significance: A tool was developed to evaluate areas of CC activity performed by PCPs. Information from surveys of PCPs can illuminate behaviors that lead to improved work flow, efficiency, and patient outcomes. Doctors of Nursing Practice who are PCPs contribute to primary care CC through leadership, experience, and descriptive evidence.

Abstract:
Despite the many interventions and trials aimed at improving coordination of health care, there is currently no accepted measurement of coordination. My professional interests and an opportunity provided by the Care Plus (Coordinated Care) Trial in the ACT led me to consider client perceptions as a potentially appropriate measure. My research question is “can coordination of health care be usefully measured through client perceptions?” ¶ I addressed this question by developing and testing an instrument to measure perceptions of coordination called the Client Perceptions of Coordination Questionnaire (CPCQ). In the thesis I describe the processes of developing the instrument, testing it through use in several studies and considering how useful such an instrument may be for health services research. In addition to the Coordinated Care Trial, I conducted two validation studies - in a chronic pain population and a general practice sample. ¶ In Part 1 of the results I demonstrate good face, content and discriminant validity, and reliability of the instrument. Psychometric analysis of the CPCQ did not support scaling, and identified areas were the instrument could be improved. Nevertheless the underlying construct of client perception of coordination as a measure is entirely new, and it is therefore worthwhile to explore its associations with other health outcome data. In Part 2 I use a single item from the CPCQ, “how often did you feel the care you received was well-coordinated?” to explore this construct. I explore the influences upon on client perceptions of coordination, and examine its associations with service utilisation and health outcome data. ¶ The construct of ‘perceived coordination’, and the capacity of the CPCQ to measure it accurately show considerable promise as measures of health care. Consistent trends were found that suggested coordination was a complex construct, and that a stronger theoretical base was needed to interpret this complexity. Theory is the first of the ‘phases’ of instrument development, and so I revisit these in order to summarise the strengths and weaknesses of the current CPCQ. Overall, the perceptions of coordination have surprisingly plausible associations with other health data, the effort to improve the instrument should be worthwhile for a wide range of health service evaluation and research.

Abstract:
The Non-Veteran Administration Care (NVC) is a program in which the Veterans Health Administration purchases health care when it cannot provide the health services needed for eligible Veterans. The rising cost of this program led to audits by the Office of the Inspector General and other entities. The scholarly problem for this DNP Project was the lack of oversight, accountability, and management, found throughout the audits of NVC, as well as a lack of evaluation of NVC. The purpose of this project was to ascertain if there was a relationship between the Non-VA Care Coordination program (NVCC) and utilization of care. The NVCC was implemented to eliminate the deficiencies cited by audits. Sleep study and chiropractic consults for FY 2013 (pre-NVCC) and FY 2014 (post-NVCC) were examined. Sleep apnea service was available at the local Veteran Administration Medical Center and chiropractic service was not. Utilization of care was determined by emergency room (ER) visits and admissions related to the consult. A logic model was used to conceptualize the project and the longer-term implementation and evaluation of NVCC, and descriptive statistics were used to analyze trends in the chiropractic data (sleep study consults were excluded from the analysis due to the minute number). There were a total of 859 chiropractic consults and 2,184 approved visits analyzed. The results revealed that Veterans who utilized the consults had no ER visits or admissions related to referrals for chiropractic consults. Completed chiropractic consults remained proportionality the same both years. NVCC had no association with the utilization of care. This scholarly project contributes to social change by empowering consumers and providing transparency in the government through audits that facilitate quality improvement and evaluation of the NVCC program.

Abstract:
Children with special health care needs (CSHCN) generally have physical, mental, or emotional conditions that require a broader range and greater quantity of health and related services compared to typical children. Care coordination (CC) and family-centered care (FCC) are necessary in the quality of health care for CSHCN. A gap exists in the literature regarding the impact of CC and FCC on children's functional ability (FA). Previous researchers have focused on met and unmet health care needs, but not on health outcomes or functionality. The purpose of this study was to determine if there was an association between CC, FCC, and FA in CSHCN. The design of this study was a secondary analysis of data from the 2005--2006 National Survey of CSHCN. The study was guided by an adapted socioecological multilevel conceptual framework. Statistical methods included univariate, bivariate, and multiple logistic regression analysis. Results indicated that CC was associated with FA in CSHCN. CSHCN that did not receive CC had a 53% increased risk (OR =1.53, 95%CI 1.21--1.94, p < 0.001) for a limitation in FA compared to CSHCN that received CC, controlling for age, gender, number of conditions, household poverty level, parental educational level, and health insurance. FCC was not associated with a limitation in FA in CSHCN ( p = 0.61). Findings from this study were consistent with the socioecological multilevel framework and the literature on care coordination. This study contributed to positive social change by providing information that can be used by public health officials, health care providers and policy makers in developing policies to assure that care coordination is provided to CSHCN and their families in order to improve their health outcomes and functionality.

Abstract:

This study examined the effects of care coordination on diabetes management processes and outcomes. The study predicted care coordination increases the likelihood of daily blood glucose monitoring, hemoglobin A1C checks at least twice a year, annual foot exams, annual eye exams, diabetes care plan being developed and a written copy provided to the patient, and self-confidence in ability to control and manage diabetes. The study also predicted a correlation between lack of care coordination and diabetics' non-adherence to diabetes medications, as well as a correlation between lack of care coordination and greater number of emergency room visits and hospitalizations among diabetics for diabetes-related issues.

Data obtained from the 2011-2012 California Health Interview Survey (CHIS) was analyzed using t-test and Chi-square. Though not all hypotheses were supported, the results of the study showed a significant relationship between care coordination and increased likelihood of hemoglobin A1C checks at least twice a year, annual foot exams, and diabetes care plans being developed and written copy provided to the patient. The study findings warrant further research on the effects of care coordination on diabetes management processes. Additional research on the effects of diabetes management processes on diabetes outcomes is recommended.

Abstract:
Lean, as relatively new management concept, surpasses the traditional mass production and creating stockpiles of goods which have to be placed on the market, without analyzing the customers’ needs. The focus of lean is on creating the value that customers demand and forming the value streams which contain only processes and activities that generate that value and eliminating all types of wastes and non-value adding activities. Lean concept was founded in Toyota company i.e. in manufacturing system called Toyota production system. Nowadays, this concept has been implemented by many worlds known organizations as the crucial part of their production system, but also other supportive processes in the company. Application of the lean concept can significantly improve process efficiency, lead to drastic cost-reduction, improved quality of the products/services provided, but also can be a main factor of increased employees productivity and resource saving. Profitable and unprofitable health care organizations have determined business strategy and adjusted mission and vision of their path thus, they strive for resource optimization in the process of providing satisfactional level of service. Accordingly, the examination of possibilities in implementing lean concept in Health Care organizations, as well as analyzing executed techniques and performed activities in leading companies is more than justified. Health Care organizations can be characterized as complex systems with numerous participants and the need for strict coordination of activities in order to provide demanded value for the customers. Monitoring and measuring the performances on various levels and areas of accountability is highly valuable for the Health Care organizations. Regarding that, the subject of this paper will be indicating specifics of measuring the performances in Health Care organizations and possibilities of their improvement.

Abstract:
Introduction: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurological disorder that affects the dopamine-producing neurons and affects the patient’s movements. According to the World Health Organization, about 1% of the world’s population aged 65 years or older has PD. The study aims to analyze the hospitalizations for Parkinson’s disease in Brazil and highlight the importance of primary health care (PHC) in the care of these patients. Methods: This is an integrative literature review, using articles from the Pubmed and Medline databases, as well as the DATASUS database from January 2017 to January 2021. The descriptors used were: “Parkinson’s Disease”; “Comprehensive Health Care”; “Patient-Centered Care”. Results: In the period analyzed there were 3.536 hospitalizations for PD in Brazil with spending of R$14,937,372.3 highlighting the Southeast region that represents 49% of the total of these. Regarding sex, age and self-reported color/race, the most affected are men with 60.6%, individuals between 60 and 69 years (26.3%) and whites (49.9%). A total of 218 deaths were registered, with a mortality rate of 6.1%. Discussion: The PHC is responsible for part of the diagnosis and monitoring of patients with PD, being a central part in the coordination of care. It acts through the levels of care and improves the quality of life of its users through health actions, thus improving their quality of life. Conclusion: Basic health units must improve themselves through the continuous training of the professionals involved, thus resulting in a decrease in the mortality rate.

Abstract:
Many health systems fail to facilitate the seamless movement and management of patients between different providers and different levels of care. Poor coordination and continuity of care can result in suboptimal patient outcomes and the inefficient utilisation of scarce healthcare resources. Interactive communication holds promise as a method to improve coordination between primary and specialty care. Interactive communication refers to planned, timely, two-way exchanges of pertinent clinical information directly between primary care and specialist physicians. Such communication may occur, for example, through face-to-face exchanges, videoconferencing, telephone, or contact by email.

Abstract:
Background An estimated 292 million people are living with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection globally, including 223,000 people in Australia. HBV diagnosis and linkage of people living with HBV to clinical care is suboptimal in Australia, with 27% of people living with HBV undiagnosed and 77% not receiving regular HBV clinical care. This systematic review aimed to characterize population-level interventions implemented to enhance all components of HBV care cascade and analyse the effectiveness of interventions. Review questions Question 1: What population-level interventions, programs or policy approaches have been shown to be effective in reducing the incidence of hepatitis B; and that may not yet be fully rolled out or evaluated in Australia demonstrate early effectiveness, or promise, in reducing the incidence of hepatitis B? Question 2: What population-level interventions and/or programs are effective at reducing disease burden for people in the community with hepatitis B? Methods Four bibliographic databases and 21 grey literature sources were searched. Studies were eligible for inclusion if the study population included people with or at risk of chronic HBV, and the study conducted a population-level interventions to decrease HBV incidence or disease burden or to enhance any components of HBV care cascade (i.e., diagnosis, linkage to care, treatment initiation, adherence to clinical care), or HBV vaccination coverage. Studies published in the past 10 years (since January 2012), with or without comparison groups were eligible for inclusion. Studies conducting an HBV screening intervention were eligible if they reported proportion of people participating in screening, proportion of newly diagnosed HBV (participant was unaware of their HBV status), proportion of people received HBV vaccination following screening, or proportion of participants diagnosed with chronic HBV infection who were linked to HBV clinical care. Studies were excluded if study population was less than 20 participants, intervention included a pharmaceutical intervention or a hospital-based intervention, or study was implemented in limited clinical services. The records were initially screened by title and abstract. The full texts of potentially eligible records were reviewed, and eligible studies were selected for inclusion. For each study included in analysis, the study outcome and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) were calculated. For studies including a comparison group, odds ratio (OR) and corresponding 95%CIs were calculated. Random effect meta-analysis models were used to calculate the pooled study outcome estimates. Stratified analyses were conducted by study setting, study population, and intervention-specific characteristics. Key findings A total of 61 studies were included in the analysis. A large majority of studies (study n=48, 79%) included single-arm studies with no concurrent control, with seven (12%) randomised controlled trials, and six (10%) non-randomised controlled studies. A total of 109 interventions were evaluated in 61 included studies. On-site or outreach HBV screening and linkage to HBV clinical care coordination were the most frequent interventions, conducted in 27 and 26 studies, respectively. Question 1 We found no studies reporting HBV incidence as the study outcome. One study conducted in remote area demonstrated that an intervention including education of pregnant women and training village health volunteers enhanced coverage of HBV birth dose vaccination (93% post-intervention, vs. 81% pre-intervention), but no data of HBV incidence among infants were reported. Question 2 Study outcomes most relevant to the HBV burden for people in the community with HBV included, HBV diagnosis, linkage to HBV care, and HBV vaccination coverage. Among randomised controlled trials aimed at enhancing HBV screening, a meta-analysis was conducted including three studies which implemented an intervention including community face-to-face education focused on HBV and/or liver cancer among migrants from high HBV prevalence areas. This analysis demonstrated a significantly higher HBV testing uptake in intervention groups with the likelihood of HBV testing 3.6 times higher among those participating in education programs compared to the control groups (OR: 3.62, 95% CI 2.72, 4.88). In another analysis, including 25 studies evaluating an intervention to enhance HBV screening, a pooled estimate of 66% of participants received HBV testing following the study intervention (95%CI: 58-75%), with high heterogeneity across studies (range: 17-98%; I-square: 99.9%). A stratified analysis by HBV screening strategy demonstrated that in the studies providing participants with on-site HBV testing, the proportion receiving HBV testing (80%, 95%CI: 72-87%) was significantly higher compared to the studies referring participants to an external site for HBV testing (54%, 95%CI: 37-71%). In the studies implementing an intervention to enhance linkage of people diagnosed with HBV infection to clinical care, the interventions included different components and varied across studies. The most common component was post-test counselling followed by assistance with scheduling clinical appointments, conducted in 52% and 38% of the studies, respectively. In meta-analysis, a pooled estimate of 73% of people with HBV infection were linked to HBV clinical care (95%CI: 64-81%), with high heterogeneity across studies (range: 28-100%; I-square: 99.2%). A stratified analysis by study population demonstrated that in the studies among general population in high prevalence countries, 94% of people (95%CI: 88-100%) who received the study intervention were linked to care, significantly higher than 72% (95%CI: 61-83%) in studies among migrants from high prevalence area living in a country with low prevalence. In 19 studies, HBV vaccination uptake was assessed after an intervention, among which one study assessed birth dose vaccination among infants, one study assessed vaccination in elementary school children and 17 studies assessed vaccination in adults. Among studies assessing adult vaccination, a pooled estimate of 38% (95%CI: 21-56%) of people initiated vaccination, with high heterogeneity across studies (range: 0.5-93%; I square: 99.9%). A stratified analysis by HBV vaccination strategy demonstrated that in the studies providing on-site vaccination, the uptake was 78% (95%CI: 62-94%), significantly higher compared to 27% (95%CI: 13-42%) in studies referring participants to an external site for vaccination. Conclusion This systematic review identified a wide variety of interventions, mostly multi-component interventions, to enhance HBV screening, linkage to HBV clinical care, and HBV vaccination coverage. High heterogeneity was observed in effectiveness of interventions in all three domains of screening, linkage to care, and vaccination. Strategies identified to boost the effectiveness of interventions included providing on-site HBV testing and vaccination (versus referral for testing and vaccination) and including community education focussed on HBV or liver cancer in an HBV screening program. Further studies are needed to evaluate the effectiveness of more novel interventions (e.g., point of care testing) and interventions specifically including Indigenous populations, people who inject drugs, men who have sex with men, and people incarcerated.

Abstract:
Invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) is a contagious bacterial infection that can occur sporadically in healthy individuals. Symptoms are typically similar to other common diseases, which can result in delayed diagnosis and treatment until patients are critically ill. In the United States, IMD outbreaks are rare and unpredictable. During an outbreak, rapidly marshalling the personnel and monetary resources to respond is paramount to controlling disease spread. If a community lacks necessary resources for a quick and efficient outbreak response, the resulting economic cost can be overwhelming. We developed a conceptual framework of activities implemented by universities, health departments, and community partners when responding to university-based IMD outbreaks. Next, cost data collected from public sources and interviews were applied to the conceptual framework to estimate the economic cost, both direct and indirect, of a university-based IMD outbreak. We used data from two recent university outbreaks in Oregon as case studies. Findings indicate a university-based IMD outbreak response relies on coordination between health care providers/insurers, university staff, media, government, and volunteers, along with many other community members. The estimated economic cost was $12.3 million, inclusive of the cost of vaccines ($7.35 million). Much of the total cost was attributable to wrongful death and indirect costs (e.g., productivity loss resulting from death). Understanding the breadth of activities and the economic cost of such a response may inform budgeting for future outbreak preparedness and development of alternative strategies to prevent and/or control IMD.
