Review question: What are the most clinical and cost effective ways of coordinating care during RRT or conservative management?</h3></div><div id="ch13.s1.2"><h3>1.2. Introduction</h3><p>People with CKD who require RRT or conservative management may have a lot of contact with healthcare professionals for a variety of reasons. In particular, those who receive in&#x02013;centre haemodialysis (around 20,000 people) may go to hospital or satellite unit 3 or 4 times a week for e.g. 4 hours just for their dialysis. In addition there may well be appointments for other reasons such as issues related directly to kidney care (for example, transplant work up or access review) and other co-morbid conditions (for example, diabetes or heart disease). Lack of coordination of care can result in a high burden on the patient due to frequent hospital visits. The purpose of this review is to identify the clinical and cost effectiveness of a variety of measures aimed at improving the coordination of care.</p></div><div id="ch13.s1.3"><h3>1.3.

The weighted average cost of a non-elective CKD admission is &#x000a3;2409; a reduction of 65 admissions per 1000 (CI: &#x02212;119 to 87) as reported in the clinical review would result in a cost saving of &#x000a3;156,616 (CI: &#x02212;&#x000a3;286,727 to &#x000a3;209,624). The weighted average cost of an outpatient nephrology attendance is &#x000a3;151 (see <a class="figpopup" href="/books/NBK577487/table/ch13.tab5/?report=objectonly" target="object" rid-figpopup="figch13tab5" rid-ob="figobch13tab5">Table 5</a> for details); based on this a reduction of 414 admissions per 1000 (CI: &#x02212;158 to &#x02212;581) as reported in the clinical review would result in a cost saving of &#x000a3;62,423 (CI: &#x02212;&#x000a3;23,823 to &#x000a3;87,604). Based on a total cost saving of &#x000a3;219,039 per 1000 patients, the intervention would be cost saving if it cost less than &#x000a3;219 per patient. Given that the estimated cost of the weekly follow-up calls alone is greater than this it is judged likely that there would be an overall additional cost of providing the intervention over usual care, although it is not possible to exactly estimate what this would be due to missing information about the resource use involved in providing the intervention.</p><div class="iconblock whole_rhythm clearfix ten_col table-wrap" id="figch13tab4"><a href="/books/NBK577487/table/ch13.tab4/?report=objectonly" target="object" title="Table 4" class="img_link icnblk_img figpopup" rid-figpopup="figch13tab4" rid-ob="figobch13tab4"><img class="small-thumb" src="/books/NBK577487/table/ch13.tab4/?report=thumb" src-large="/books/NBK577487/table/ch13.tab4/?report=previmg" alt="Table 4.

The outcomes that matter most</h5><p>The committee considered quality of life, symptom scores, functional measures, mortality, hospitalisation and time to failure of renal replacement therapy as critical outcomes. Important outcomes were pre-emptive transplantation, psychological distress and mental welling, experience of care, control of coexisting conditions and adverse events.</p><p>There was evidence for symptom scores, functional measures, and experience of care, mental wellbeing and resource use.</p></div><div id="ch13.s1.8.1.2"><h5>1.8.1.2. The quality of the evidence</h5><p>Outcomes were rated as moderate to very low quality. Evidence was downgraded due risk of bias (due to lack of blinding with subjective outcomes) and imprecision.</p></div><div id="ch13.s1.8.1.3"><h5>1.8.1.3. Benefits and harms</h5><p>The were no clinical important differences between the group who received post-discharge case management and those who received usual care for symptom scores, functional measures, experience of care and mental wellbeing. The committee noted that the intervention was for six weeks only and this may not have been long enough to facilitate improvement in these outcomes. There was a clinically important reduction in clinic appointments in the intervention group but not for readmissions.</p><p>The committee noted that the studies were in China and Hong Kong and it was difficult to know how their healthcare services compare with that of the UK. The limited description of usual care described a service that may be superior to that offered in the UK. The study population was restricted to people on PD who had been admitted to the renal unit, but not for an elective admission.</p><p>A case manager or keyworker is available in some areas of the country. The role is performed by a range of different health professionals including GPs, community matrons and specialist nurses. Keyworkers provide a single point of contact, organise appointments and help people to navigate the system by signposting to other services. The committee were in agreement that a keyworker was likely to provide clinically important benefits but were unable to recommend their use due to the unknown resource impact.</p></div></div><div id="ch13.s1.8.2"><h4>1.8.2. Cost effectiveness and resource use</h4><p>No published economic evaluations were included.</p><p>The clinical review found evidence relating to post-discharge case management for people on PD who had been hospitalised. Case management as described in these studies would have additional costs due to the additional nurse timing required. However, there was evidence for a reduction in clinic visits and this would offset these costs. Readmission rates were also lower but not judged to be clinically important. A cost calculation based on this evidence suggested that it was likely there would be a net cost of this type of case management. There was no evidence to suggest QALYs would be higher with this intervention &#x02013; no mortality or quality of life benefit was seen &#x02013; therefore the intervention may not be cost effective. As described above there was uncertainty relating to the generalisability of the resource use in the clinical studies based in China and Hong Kong. This uncertainty also effects these economic considerations which are based on this evidence.</p><p>The committee agreed that the use of a key worker to coordinate care for people receiving RRT or conservative management was an important issue; however, no clinical or economic evidence was identified relating to this. The committee concluded that this could have an important benefit to patients as better coordination of care may mean they spend less of their time in hospital (many patients are already in hospital 3 or more days a week for dialysis but also require additional appointments related to concomitant conditions such as diabetes) and that could improve quality of life. The committee discussed what the resource use implications would be of people having a key worker to coordinate care including whether this would require a separate role or if this could be accommodated within an existing team member&#x02019;s role, and who might be best placed to do it. The committee concluded there would be a resource use implication of having a key worker to coordinate care, whoever undertook the role. It was unclear if there would be any cost offsets to the NHS although it was conceivable that there could be if for example patients were seen in primary care for some appointments rather than secondary care, or if patient transport journeys were reduced. In addition, as described above there would be benefits to patients which may justify any additional cost.</p><p>The committee also discussed to what extent this role already existed and whether there would be a resource impact of recommending a key worker to coordinate care for people receiving RRT or conservative management. The committee concluded that it was not current practice in many areas and as such a recommendation may have a substantial resource impact.</p><p>Given the lack of clinical or cost effectiveness evidence and potential for a substantial resource impact the committee concluded they were not able to specifically recommend a key worker to coordinate care for people receiving RRT or conservative management. Although they noted that more general recommendations already exist about co-coordinating care in the NICE guidelines on Multimorbidity: clinical assessment and management NICE guideline [NG56] and Patient experience in adult NHS services: improving the experience of care for people using adult NHS services (CG138) and made a more general recommendation reflecting these given the importance of this issue for people undergoing RRT and conservative management.</p><p>Providing contact details of the lead healthcare professional responsible for care was not considered to have any resource use implications.</p></div><div id="ch13.s1.8.3"><h4>1.8.3. Other factors the committee took into account</h4><p>A person may undergo a number of different transitions of care after starting renal replacement therapy. During these periods people often report not knowing who is responsible for their care or who to contact. This lead health professional is not responsible for coordinating care but should signpost to the most appropriate person to contact.</p><p>The committee emphasised the importance of the partnership between primary, secondary and social care. People undergoing renal replacement therapy or conservative management often have complex needs which are met by a number of different health professionals and services. The input of these professionals varies over time and depends on where the person is in the patient pathway. Good timely communication with the general practitioner is important so that the primary care team is fully aware of developments and ongoing management as this may have implications whilst managing other co-morbidities, poly-pharmacy as well as providing psycho-social support as necessary. It is important to involve the primary care team at all stages of the RRT pathway. Though the RRT pathway is secondary care/specialist led, primary care should remain in the loop to ensure optimal management of coexisting co-morbidities, effective medicines management, safe prescribing, help in promoting lifestyle changes, primary/secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease. Primary care health professionals can continue to provide holistic care, psychological support and sign post to specialists for problems relating to RRT and associated problems. Seamless transfer of care between primary and secondary care with effective sharing of information is likely to improve quality of care and improve the patient experience.</p><p>The committee highlighted the importance of the coordination of care for people who require end of life care</p><p>People often have to attend a number of different appointments for their renal condition and other conditions. The treatment burden for people on in-centre haemodialysis is particularly high. It is therefore important that treatment burden is discussed with each person, their families and carers and that strategies are adopted to minimise it.</p><p>The committee confirmed that the recommendations were applicable to children and young people. They highlighted the importance of good communication and coordination of care when a young person is transitioning to adult services. They were aware of NICE&#x02019;s guidance on Transition from children&#x02019;s to adults&#x02019; services for young people using health or social care services (NG43).</p></div></div></div><div id="ch13.rl.r1"><h2 id="_ch13_rl_r1_">References</h2><dl class="temp-labeled-list"><dl class="bkr_refwrap"><dt>1.</dt><dd><div class="bk_ref" id="ch13.ref1">Bessa

<ul id="ch13.l11"><li id="ch13.lt41" class="half_rhythm"><div>If a study is rated as both &#x02018;Directly applicable&#x02019; and with &#x02018;Minor limitations&#x02019; then it will be included in the guideline.</div></li><li id="ch13.lt42" class="half_rhythm"><div>If a study is rated as either &#x02018;Not applicable&#x02019; or with &#x02018;Very serious limitations&#x02019; then it will usually be excluded from the guideline.</div></li><li id="ch13.lt43" class="half_rhythm"><div>If a study is rated as &#x02018;Partially applicable&#x02019;, with &#x02018;Potentially serious limitations&#x02019; or both then there is discretion over whether it should be included.</div></li></ul>
<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 Committee if required. The ultimate aim is to include 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. For example, if a high quality study from a UK perspective is available a similar study from another country&#x02019;s perspective may be excluded.</p><p>The health economist will be guided by the following hierarchies.</p><p><i>Setting:</i>
<ul id="ch13.l12"><li id="ch13.lt44" class="half_rhythm"><div>UK NHS (most applicable).</div></li><li id="ch13.lt45" class="half_rhythm"><div>OECD countries with predominantly public health insurance systems (for example, France, Germany, Sweden).</div></li><li id="ch13.lt46" class="half_rhythm"><div>OECD countries with predominantly private health insurance systems (for example, Switzerland).</div></li><li id="ch13.lt47" class="half_rhythm"><div>Studies set in non-OECD countries or in the USA will have been excluded before being assessed for applicability and methodological limitations.</div></li></ul>
<i>Economic study type:</i>
<ul id="ch13.l13"><li id="ch13.lt48" class="half_rhythm"><div>Cost-utility analysis (most applicable).</div></li><li id="ch13.lt49" class="half_rhythm"><div>Other type of full economic evaluation (cost-benefit analysis, cost-effectiveness analysis, cost-consequences analysis).</div></li><li id="ch13.lt50" class="half_rhythm"><div>Comparative cost analysis.</div></li><li id="ch13.lt51" class="half_rhythm"><div>Non-comparative cost analyses including cost-of-illness studies will have been excluded before being assessed for applicability and methodological limitations.</div></li></ul>
<i>Year of analysis:</i>
<ul id="ch13.l14"><li id="ch13.lt52" class="half_rhythm"><div>The more recent the study, the more applicable it will be.</div></li><li id="ch13.lt53" class="half_rhythm"><div>Studies published in 2001 or later but that depend on unit costs and resource data entirely or predominantly from before 2001 will be rated as &#x02018;Not applicable&#x02019;.</div></li><li id="ch13.lt54" class="half_rhythm"><div>Studies published before 2001 will have been excluded before being assessed for applicability and methodological limitations.</div></li></ul>
<i>Quality and relevance of effectiveness data used in the economic analysis:</i>
<ul id="ch13.l15"><li id="ch13.lt55" class="half_rhythm"><div>The more closely the clinical effectiveness data used in the economic analysis matches 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><li id="ch13.lt56" class="half_rhythm"><div>The following will be rated as &#x02018;Very serious limitations&#x02019; and excluded: economic analyses undertaken as part of clinical studies that are excluded from the clinical review; economic models where relative treatment effects are based entirely on studies that are excluded from the clinical review; comparative costing analyses that only look at the cost of delivering dialysis (as current UK NHS reference costs are considered a more relevant estimate of this for the guideline); within-trial economic analyses based on non-randomised studies that do not meet the minimum adjustment criteria outlined in the main review protocol.</div></li></ul></p>
