Introduction</h3><p>The guideline committee considered settings where additional services may be required. These included across community and third sector settings as well as other institutions. The additional services considered included those delivered at home, such as &#x0201c;hospice at home.&#x0201d; They considered groups of people who might require or benefit from additional services, these included, younger adults, frail elderly, people with dementia, those with hearing or sight loss, people in prison, those with learning difficulties or mental health problems, people from ethnic minorities and those in whom life-prolonging therapies are still an active option.</p><p>The social and economic circumstances of people were also considered, for example the homeless, those living in poverty, those living alone, people in employment and the retired. Also considered were differences between urban and rural areas. The committee reviewed the evidence regarding the effects of service provision on the outcomes for the person receiving the service, and for those caring for or close to the patient. Overall there were no research findings to support one service model over another in any one setting.</p></div><div id="ch12.s1.3"><h3>1.3.

Review question 2: What provision of additional community services should be available to reduce inappropriate/avoidable admissions in people in their last year of life?</h3></div><div id="ch12.s1.5"><h3>1.5. Introduction</h3><p>This chapter looks at the availability of and access to additional community services to prevent unnecessary hospital admissions for patients in the last year of life. This refers to urgent and unplanned access to services in the event of a crisis. &#x0201c;Routine,&#x0201d; or regular, access to additional community services to maintain the person in their preferred place is discussed separately in <a href="/books/n/niceng142er10/?report=reader" class="toc-item">evidence review J</a>.</p><p>Patients and their carers&#x02019; are often distressed and challenged when a crisis occurs in the health and care status of the patient. This is whether it has been discussed as a possibility in advance care planning or not, and particularly when it happens out of usual core working hours. Sometimes the only solution available to the patient and/or their carer(s) is to call emergency services, often leading to an ambulance journey and hospital admission. Extra community services to support the patient and carer(s) in such a crisis could both prevent the unnecessary hospital admission, and the use of unnecessary resources. This chapter reviews the evidence in this area.</p></div><div id="ch12.s1.6"><h3>1.6. PICO table</h3><p>For full details see review protocol in <a href="#ch12.appa">Appendix A</a>.

Resource costs</h3><p>The recommendations made based on this review (see section <b>Error! Reference source not found.</b>) may have a substantial impact on resources.</p><p>Additional costs could be incurred for the following reasons: the costs of the implementation that adults in the last year of life, their carers and people important to them have access to health and social care professionals who have the skills to: meet their identified care needs, pre-empt and minimise crises and support them to stay in their preferred place of care, if possible. The magnitude of the resource impact depends on the scale to which the above is current practice for end of life care. This will depend on local circumstances. Savings could be made through hospital admissions and hospital deaths avoided and reduced length of stay of hospital spells for people in the last year of life, due to improvements in the needs being met for people in the last year of life through increased access to end of life care services. Further detail can be found in the resource impact tools that support the guideline which will be available after final publication.</p></div><div id="ch12.s1.10"><h3>1.10.

There was between receiving additional community services compared to usual care in terms of carers and patient satisfaction with care from GP and coordination of care. However there was evidence of clinically important benefit in terms of patients and careers satisfaction with care received from district nurses and hospital. The study showed that a clinically important higher proportion of people in the intervention group died in hospital, but no difference between groups in the number of people dying at home, in hospice or elsewhere. The evidence was also mixed in terms of use of community services: the use of community services was clinically important lower in the intervention group, but there was no difference between groups in terms of contact with community services such as occupational therapists, social workers, district nurses, GP visits or Macmillan nurses. There was no difference between groups for the outcome of admissions to hospital, but for the people who were admitted, there was evidence of a clinically important benefit of the intervention in terms of shorter length of stay.

The following outcomes were identified as important: length of survival, length of stay, length of survival hospitalisation, number of hospital visits, number of visits to accident and emergency, number of unscheduled admissions, use of community services, avoidable or inappropriate admissions to ICU, inappropriate attempts at cardiopulmonary resuscitation, staff satisfaction, patient or carer reported outcomes and carer health.</p><p>See <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK558770/table/ch12.tab9/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch12tab9" rid-ob="figobch12tab9">tables 7</a> and <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK558770/table/ch12.tab10/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch12tab10" rid-ob="figobch12tab10">8</a> in the Methods chapter for a detailed explanation of why the committee selected these outcomes.</p><p>For the critical outcomes, six studies reported quality of life of people in the last year of life.

None of the studies reported actual and preferred place of care.</p><p>For the important outcomes, length of stay, hospitalisation, number of hospital visits, number of visits to accident and emergency, number of unscheduled admissions and avoidable/inappropriate admissions to ICU were overall reported by 17 studies. 3 studies reported use of community services and 1 study reported patient/carer reported outcomes (satisfaction).

The quality of the evidence</h5><div id="ch12.s1.11.2.3.1"><h5>Additional community services on a regular/routine basis</h5><p>The quality of the evidence ranged from very low to moderate.

Benefits and harms</h5><div id="ch12.s1.11.2.4.1"><h5>Additional community services on a regular/routine basis</h5><p>To ease the interpretation of the evidence included in this review, the Committee agreed to group the studies based on the intensity of the resources used for service delivery, taking into consideration the level of care, staff and other aspects of the interventions.</p><p>For the evidence regarding category 1 (additional community services delivered by a single provider, no direct clinical care provided), a clinically important benefit of the intervention was observed in terms of place of death and length of stay. Mixed evidence was available for patient and carer satisfaction and use of community services. A benefit of the comparator was observed in terms of hospital visits. The Committee noted that the evidence mainly came from a single UK-based study conducted in 1992. The Committee commented that the evidence from this study might be outdated and not directly applicable to the current provision of services.</p><p>For the evidence regarding category 3 (additional community services delivered by a single provider, direct clinical care provided), benefit of the intervention was observed in terms of hospitalisation and place of death, with more people in the intervention group dying at home. There was some evidence of benefit of the intervention in terms of emergency department attendance, and mixed evidence in terms of mortality. The Committee commented that some evidence for this category came from a UK-based large retrospective study, albeit of very low quality.</p><p>For the evidence regarding category 4 (additional community services delivered by multiple providers, direct clinical care provided), the Committee observed that most interventions were delivered by a core team composed of a doctor or specialist and/or a social worker with specific palliative training. The core service was in most cases provided to both the person dying and their family, and commonly included elements of planning and coordination, education (self-management), disease and symptom management, palliative care interventions, on call emergency care, and emotional, social, spiritual support. Other components of the team could include district nurses, specialist doctors, spiritual care advisors or counsellors, psychologists, volunteers, physiotherapists, occupational therapists or other healthcare assistants. The GP was often seen as key for the optimal delivery of the intervention, but was not part of the intervention itself. Overall, the Committee noted that there was mixed evidence in terms of length of survival, and no difference between groups in terms of quality of life. There was some evidence of benefit of the intervention in terms of hospitalisation and place of death, and evidence of benefit in the use of community services.</p><p>Considering the body of evidence overall, it was difficult for the Committee to interpret the meaning of the evidence for mortality, and there was evidence of no clinically important difference between the groups receiving additional community services and usual care in terms of quality of life. There was evidence of clinically important benefit in terms of place of death, and overall evidence of benefit in terms of hospitalisation and related outcomes (length of stay, number of hospital visits, number of visits to A&#x00026;E, number of unscheduled admissions, avoidable/inappropriate admissions to ICU), while it was difficult for the Committee to interpret the meaning of the evidence for the use of community services.</p></div><div id="ch12.s1.11.2.4.2"><h5>Additional community services in an acute/emergency scenario</h5><p>Overall, the Committee noted that the evidence showed mixed results in terms of quality of life and place of death, with some evidence showing a benefit of usual care, and other studies showing no difference between groups. For the outcome of preferred and actual place of death, the Committee observed that the intervention resulted in no clinically important difference, and higher rate of achieving preferred place of death. In general, fewer people in the intervention group died at hospital, but inconsistent results were noted on deaths at home. There was mostly no difference between groups in terms of hospitalisation and number of hospital visits, with some benefit of the intervention. Number of visits to A&#x00026;E was also generally lower in the intervention group. Overall no difference between groups was observed for patient satisfaction.</p></div></div></div><div id="ch12.s1.11.3"><h4>1.11.3. Other factors the committee took into account</h4><p>The Committee agreed there was not enough evidence to formulate an evidence-based recommendation making a clear recommendation on a model of community services. The Committee discussed that one model of care across the UK would be inappropriate and that different regions and populations would require a different service (for example, the services for rural and urban areas would look different). They agreed on a consensus recommendation stating people should have access to the appropriate community services they need to enable them to avoid admission to hospital.</p></div><div id="ch12.s1.11.4"><h4>1.11.4. Cost effectiveness and resource use</h4><p>The implementation or reorganisations of community services could produce potential cost savings to the NHS. These cost savings might arise, most notably, through reductions in avoidable hospital admissions, reductions in hospital length of stay and reductions in the proportion of deaths occurring in hospital. If costs saved from the improved outcomes listed above were to outweigh the cost of implementation and the on-going costs of providing the community services, then the services would be considered to be cost saving to the NHS. However, if the community services were to cost more to run than the cost that were being saved, then the implementation of such services might not be considered an efficient use of resources. It is clear that implementing additional services in the community would free up resources in hospitals and shift the need into the community, but the overall effect this would have on the cost to the system as a whole is highly uncertain.</p><p>Seven health economic studies were identified that compared implementing additional services in the community to usual care (no additional community services). The studies were all partially applicable and the quality of the studies ranged from having potentially serious limitations to very serious limitations. The main limitation of nearly all of the studies was that, although they demonstrated costs savings from the interventions in terms of hospital utilisation costs, they did not provide information on the upfront and on-going costs of the interventions themselves, making it not possible to determine whether overall, they would be cost neutral or saving to implement. One of the studies was a cost-utility analysis analysing a number of different end of life interventions, some of which were community based. However the study was not based on UK data therefore was not directly applicable to a UK service model.</p><p>One health economic study was identified comparing additional community services to avoid emergency admissions versus usual care (no additional services). This study was assessed as partially applicable with very serious limitations.</p><p>The committee felt that the quality of the health economic evidence was too low to be able to help them to determine whether any of the additional community interventions in the literature would be cost effective.</p><p>The committee discussed the issue that the current political focus on shifting end of life care from hospitals into the community might not lead to overall cost savings for the NHS, as the cost of providing care in the community can be as costly as hospital care. The other issue the committee discussed was that there are extremely limited resources available in the community, for example there has been a significant reduction in the number of district nurses over the last five years. Furthermore, the level of services regions are able to provide in the community will be largely constrained by the limited resources available and shortfalls in the number of community trained health care professionals.</p><p>The committee felt that community services and out-of-hours services were extremely important areas of the guideline where any potential recommendations would be likely to lead to a significant resource impact; therefore they were prioritised as areas for original economic analysis. Due to the low quality of the clinical evidence it was not possible to conduct an evidence based cost-effectiveness analysis. A cost analysis was conducted for different out-of-hours community interventions identified by the committee, from the literature or from the call for evidence (please see the details of the analysis in the separate report via the NICE website) The committee identified deaths occurring outside hospital, length of stay in end of life emergency admissions and emergency admissions as the outcomes for the analysis. The cost analysis also included a threshold analysis which determined the reductions required in outcomes listed above, for a hypothetical region representing an average size CCG, to make the services cost neutral.</p><p>The committee used the results of the threshold analysis to inform their recommendations regarding having an out-of-hours advice line dedicated to end of life, a dedicated ambulance services for end of life patients, and an out-of-hours end-of-life pharmacy service as the committee felt confident that the outcomes needed to recover the costs of these interventions could be achieved, and therefore felt the interventions were likely to be a good use of NHS resources. The committee felt more uncertain about whether the care coordination service and hospice at home components would be able to achieve the required outcomes needed to make them cost neutral.</p><p>It is important to note that the illustrative costs provided in the cost analysis that were presented to the committee to aid the decisions were highly subjective and do not reflect the estimated actual cost of implementing the services in reality. In reality the costs will vary significantly according to the specific region and are therefore extremely difficult to estimate.</p><p>The committee noted that geographical, societal, economic and epidemiological differences between regions mean that the optimal end-of-life service model will differ by locality and will be determined by a number of varying factors. The committee also noted that due to wide scale variation in the level of services currently available, the level of reorganisation required would need to be tailored to compliment what is currently already provided, and the resource impact of any recommendations will depend on this as well.</p></div></div></div><div id="ch12.rl.r1"><h2 id="_ch12_rl_r1_">References</h2><dl class="temp-labeled-list"><dl class="bkr_refwrap"><dt>1.</dt><dd><div class="bk_ref" id="ch12.ref1">Abel

Cost may have been shifted from secondary to primary/community settings. In Bradford, patients in the intervention group were significantly older than their control group with a mean difference of 3.8 years. This could have affected the clinical outcomes observed biasing the results in favour of the intervention. The paper reports after BT the HFSNs in Poole began to receive more of their caseloads from &#x02018;care of the elderly&#x02019; wards, GPs and district nurses which increased the proportion of people in their caseloads with a severity classification of III or IV.

Cost effectiveness results for in-home palliative care are subject to EOL care in the control group of the RCT study used as evidence of the estimated outcome being the same as the usual care strategy; this is unlikely to be true.

<b>Where there is discretion</b></p>
<p>The health economist will make a decision based on the relative applicability and quality of the available evidence for that question, in discussion with the guideline committee if required. The ultimate aim is to include health economic studies that are helpful for decision-making in the context of the guideline and the current NHS setting. If several studies are considered of sufficiently high applicability and methodological quality that they could all be included, then the health economist, in discussion with the committee if required, may decide to include only the most applicable studies and to selectively exclude the remaining studies. All studies excluded on the basis of applicability or methodological limitations will be listed with explanation as excluded health economic studies in Appendix M.</p>
<p>The health economist will be guided by the following hierarchies.</p>
<p><i>Setting:</i>
<ul id="ch12.l46"><li id="ch12.lt233" class="half_rhythm"><div>UK NHS (most applicable).</div></li><li id="ch12.lt234" class="half_rhythm"><div>OECD countries with predominantly public health insurance systems (for example, France, Germany, Sweden).</div></li><li id="ch12.lt235" class="half_rhythm"><div>OECD countries with predominantly private health insurance systems (for example, Switzerland).</div></li><li id="ch12.lt236" class="half_rhythm"><div>Studies set in non-OECD countries or in the USA will be excluded before being assessed for applicability and methodological limitations.</div></li></ul>
<i>Health economic study type:</i>
<ul id="ch12.l47"><li id="ch12.lt237" class="half_rhythm"><div>Cost&#x02013;utility analysis (most applicable).</div></li><li id="ch12.lt238" class="half_rhythm"><div>Other type of full economic evaluation (cost&#x02013;benefit analysis, cost-effectiveness analysis, cost&#x02013;consequences analysis).</div></li><li id="ch12.lt239" class="half_rhythm"><div>Comparative cost analysis.</div></li><li id="ch12.lt240" class="half_rhythm"><div>Non-comparative cost analyses including cost-of-illness studies will be excluded before being assessed for applicability and methodological limitations.</div></li></ul>
<i>Year of analysis:</i>
<ul id="ch12.l48"><li id="ch12.lt241" class="half_rhythm"><div>The more recent the study, the more applicable it will be.</div></li><li id="ch12.lt242" class="half_rhythm"><div>Studies published in 2007 or later but that depend on unit costs and resource data entirely or predominantly from before 2007 will be rated as &#x02018;Not applicable&#x02019;.</div></li><li id="ch12.lt243" class="half_rhythm"><div>Studies published before 2007 will be excluded before being assessed for applicability and methodological limitations.</div></li></ul>
<i>Quality and relevance of effectiveness data used in the health economic analysis:</i>
<ul id="ch12.l49"><li id="ch12.lt244" class="half_rhythm"><div>The more closely the clinical effectiveness data used in the health economic analysis match with the outcomes of the studies included in the clinical review the more useful the analysis will be for decision-making in the guideline.</div></li></ul></p>
