摘要

Objectives: To identify factors that in uence the cost-effectiveness of hospital-in-the-home (HITH) and to discussnthe impact of funding arrangements in creating incentives or disincentives for the establishment of HITH services.nMethods: A review of HITH services in Australia was undertaken. Based on the review, factors affecting the relativencosts of HITH and conventional care were identi. ed, in particular, the effect of funding and organisationalnarrangements on the incentives for managers and providers to choose between HITH and conventional care.nResults: The review of HITH services identi. ed a wide range of models of HITH in Australia. Factors identi. ed asnimportant to the success of HITH included demographic and location issues, referral mechanisms, the choice ofnstaf. ng and the management of the programme. However, it was clear that the structure of the programme oftennrelated to funding arrangements. Issues such as ‘incentive funding’, establishment costs and opportunity for costshiftingnwere identi. ed as being relevant to incentives for the ef. cient provision of HITH.nConclusions: Evaluations are essential to inform decisions about whether HITH is likely to be a viable and costeffectivenalternative to inpatient care. However, the relative costs of HITH and conventional care will depend onnlocal factors. From the point of view of the decision-maker, these will be affected by funding and organisationalnarrangements. Funders must be aware that complex . nancial incentives may mask the true costs of HITH servicesnrelative to hospital services. They need to ensure that the incentives created by funding arrangements arentransparent.
