RELEVANT OUTCOMES FOR PATIENT-CENTERED INTERVENTIONS FOR PERSONS WITH MULTIMORBIDITY: EXPERTS’ DISCUSSION

Abstract

Although patient-centered interventions for persons with multimorbidity are increasingly implemented in primary health care, evidence on effectiveness is still scarce and inconclusive.1 One potential explanation is the inconsistent use of outcome measures and a lack of a specific multimorbidity-adapted outcome measure.1,2 Using the 2015 North American Primary Care Research Group (NAPCRG) Annual Meeting, a forum was held with the goal of creating a list of relevant outcomes and to discussing methods of measurement.
