Evaluation of a Case-management Program for Frequent Emergency Department Users (DAUM)

3 giugno 2026 aggiornato da: CHOUIHED Tahar, Central Hospital, Nancy, France

The DAUM Case-management Program for Frequent Users of the Nancy University Hospital Emergency Department: Evaluation Protocol

The DAUM case-management program for frequent users (FUs) of emergency department was developed to improve FUs identification and management. FUs were eligible if they had four ED visits or more in the previous year, and attended the ED between November, 2022 and October, 2023. Patients were identified in the ED and addressed to the territorial support platform. A personalized health coordination plan which included a care plan (care objectives) and a support plan (social objectives) was co-constructed by the support platform, the patient, their caregiver(s), and their GP. Follow-up assessments at three to six months and at one year evaluated whether individual objectives were achieved. The primary outcomes were participants' mean number of ED visits during their year of participation in the program compared to the previous year, and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER), expressed as the cost per ED visit avoided. Secondary outcomes included reach, adoption, implementation, and maintenance indicators.

Patients included in the case-management program

FUs patients were identified by the admission nurse through an alert generated by the ED information system. The ED physician explained the DAUM program to the patient and notified the Territorial Support Platform (TSP). The TSP team contacted the patient and his/her GP to present the DAUM program, obtain their agreement to participate and collect additional information.

Once the patient included in the DAUM program, a Personalized Health Coordination Plan (PHCP) was co-constructed by the TSP team, in collaboration with the patient, hi/her GP, and other caregiver(s). The PHCP is divided into a care plan (with care objectives) and a support plan (with social obectives). Once the objectives of the care and support plans were identified for a patient, specific actions and timeframes were established for each objective. Follow-up assessments were conducted at three to six months from the inclusion and at one year.
