Annotation | The 29 POPP (Partnerships for Older People Projects) pilot sites potentially bring benefits by reducing the inappropriate use of hospital bed-days. Benefits accrue from the savings that could be released from a reduced use of hospital services and also from better outcomes people might experience from being cared for within their own homes. In this analysis, data from the 19 first round sites (activity from May 2006) concentrate on the cost savings. However, at this point in the evaluation, insufficient data limits any assessment of the outcome effects. (RH). |
