Summary
Theory: Research seems to show that Integrated Home Care (IHC) is an excellent form of rehabilitation as the domicile is the place where the patient feels safe, participate most and have direct feedback from ADL training [1]. Recent results show that IHC has the potential to lower the costs of post-stroke rehabilitation [2]. Cost-effectiveness analysis would be an important tool for decision-makers regarding alternative IHC interventions. In practice the realization of the potential benefits of IHC has to overcome serious barriers and the dissemination of IHC in the European Union will depend “on the upgrade of health professionals from a defensive kind of monodisciplinary professionalism towards an open-ended multidisciplinary professionalism” [1].
