Abstract
Enabling Integrated Health and Care
Highlights
Adult patients who are very high intensity users (VHIU) of hospital emergency departments have complex medical and psychosocial needs
It was not possible to interpret the randomised controlled trial because of contamination of the control group. We suggest this is common in trials done in the setting of active clinical service delivery
If it has similar outcomes this “scaling up” will have substantial effect on hospital use
