Abstract
Regarding the dominance of inpatient medical rehabilitation programmes efforts have emerged over the last few years to strengthen outpatient medical rehabilitation programmes in Germany. The goal of cardiac rehabilitation is the recovery of physical, psychic and social wellbeing in people with a severe heart condition. For this contribution the central outcomes of cardiac rehabilitation were compared between different rehabilitation programmes (inpatient and outpatient) and cost-effectiveness analyses were made. These results were obtained within the scope of an evaluation study commissioned by the statutory health and pension insurance agency. In summary, the different rehabilitation programmes can be regarded as comparable concerning effectiveness and costs following rehabilitation.
