Abstract
Fifty-seven elderly homebound patients with musculoskeletal disability were randomized to a stepped-up outreach rehabilitation program or to usual treatment.

Twenty-three patients had maintained clinical improvement at the end of the study. The services were achieved at a modest marginal cost.
