Municipal Patient-Reported Outcomes’ (K-PRO’s) Effect on Resource Consumption: A Health Technology Assessment (HTA) Approach

The implementation of the digital platform, Kommunal PRO, in the Danish municipalities have led to changes in the employees’ work procedures and how they prepare for dialogues with the citizens. This PhD project is conducted to investigate the association between the digitalization of PROs and the resource use and workflow in the municipalities. The data will be collected in health centres in several Danish municipalities through observation studies and semi-structured interviews. Furthermore, a health economic analysis of the resources will be performed to investigate the monetary pros or cons regarding the digitalization.
