CONCEPT projects will address research questions related to the effectiveness and efficiency (i.e. appropriateness, quality or health outcomes and costs) with which chronic care is provided in the context of the Spanish healthcare system.
CONCEPT comprises five sub-projects, four analysing the care provided for four highly prevalent chronic diseases and a fifth CONCEPT-COST, focusing on economic analyses of all other projects. The CONCEPT projects are based on the actual exposure of patients when they come into contact with different healthcare providers and the consequences of this exposure, using real-world data (RWD) as the research substrate.
