SELFIE2020 (Sustainable intEgrated care modeLs for multi-morbidity: delivery, FInancing and performancE) is a Horizon2020 EU project that will contribute to the current state of knowledge and provide applicable policy advice on integrated care for persons with multi-morbidity.

Currently, over 50 million persons in Europe have more than one chronic disease, and this number will increase dramatically in the near future. Multi-morbidity will become the number one threat to population health and economic sustainability of health care systems. New models of care for multi-morbid persons are urgently needed. SELFIE aims to improve person-centered care for persons with multi-morbidity by proposing evidence-based, economically sustainable, integrated chronic care models that stimulate cooperation across health and social care sectors. It also aims to propose appropriate financing/payment schemes that support the implementation of these models.

More specifically, SELFIE aims to:
• Develop a taxonomy of promising integrated care programmes for persons with multi-morbidity;
• Provide evidence-based advice on matching financing/payment schemes with adequate incentives to implement integrated care;
• Provide empirical evidence of the impact of promising integrated care on a wide range of outcomes using Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA);
• Develop implementation and change strategies tailored to different care settings and contexts in Europe, especially Central and Eastern Europe.
Seventeen promising integrated care programmes for persons with multi-morbidity are being evaluated in SELFIE using MCDA and a common set of core outcomes as well as programme-type specific outcomes. The latter depend on whether a programme is i) a population health management programme, ii) a programme targeting frail elderly, iii) a programme targeting persons with problems in multiple life domains, or iv) an oncology or palliative care programme.

The SELFIE consortium includes eight organisations in the following countries: the Netherlands (coordinator) (NL), Austria (AT), Croatia (HR), Germany (DE), Hungary (HU), Norway (NO), Spain (ES), and the UK. (www.selfie2020.eu) [Grant Agreement No 634288]
