From each according to means, to each according to needs? Distributional effects of abolishing asset-based payments for residential care in Austria
Our findings indicate the limited ability of asset-based OPPs to target those with higher assets, thus questioning the fairness of these instruments for financing residential care facilities for older people in Austria. Findings also suggest that the parameterization of such OPPs (such as asset exemption thresholds) and patterns of residential care use are key variables for assessing the distribution of asset-based OPPs for residential care use. …
Making the Invisible Visible
Live-in care, provided by mainly female migrants, has developed as a do-it-yourself welfare mechanism-hardly regulated, with undefined working times, singular labour relations and widely untraceable cash flows. Migrant carers are isolated, working in a 'grey' area, torn between the family in which they are working and the individual person in need of care, and very often they are also dependent on brokering agencies. The aim of this contribution …
The Sustain Project
SUSTAIN aims to generate evidence on how to improve integrated care, and apply and transfer the knowledge gained to other health and social care systems, and regions. Lessons learned will be brought together in practical tools to inform and support policy-makers and decision-makers, as well as other stakeholders involved in integrated care, to manage and improve care for older people living at home
Specific approaches to integrating care in Austria - The cases of psycho-geriatric coordination and palliative care (Sustain project sites)
Introduction: Integrated care has gained importance over the past decade in Austria with a strong focus on integration and coordination within the health care system, e.g. by implementing discharge management in hospitals and sporadic disease management initiatives. Alongside these developments, long-term care (LTC) has progressively been shaped as a sector, with distinct funding mechanisms and by creating new links with the health system, e.g. b…
Lessons for regulating informal markets and implications for quality assurance – the case of migrant care workers in Austria
The rising number of private care arrangements in which live-in migrant care workers are engaged as a functional equivalent to family care calls for special attention by policy makers and formal long-term care providers on their implications for quality assurance and professional standards in the long-term care sector. Austria is one of the first countries in Europe where tangible legal measures have been taken to regulate this area under the hea…
Regulating Migrants as a Low-Cost Solution for Long-Term Care
This chapter deals with various aspects and consequences of a gradual regulation of labour in the area of domestic and care services over recent years in Austria. While this development shows some similarities to other coordinated market economies in Europe, it also reveals specific features that may be explained by a particular Austrian pathway to construct 'functional equivalents' to family care in the context of a 'conservative' welfare regime…
Methodological Development of the Interactive Interlinks Framework for Long Term Care
There is increasing international research into health and social care services for older people in need of long-term care (LTC), but problems remain with respect to acquiring robust comparative information to enable judgements to be made regarding the most beneficial and cost-effective approaches. The project ‘INTERLINKS’ (‘Health systems and LTC for older people in Europe’) funded by the EU 7th Framework programme was developed to address the c…

Trends towards integrated long-term care for older people in Europe—Harnessing the knowledge base
INTERLINKS ("Health systems and long-term care for older people in Europe: modelling the interfaces between prevention, rehabilitation, quality of services and informal care"), was a project co-financed by the EU 7th Framework Programme (Grant agreement no. 223037) with a purpose of constructing and validating a framework to describe, analyse and improve long-term care (LTC) systems for older people from a European perspective. The project was co…
Integrated Care for older people in Europe – latest trends and perceptions
As a researcher and consultant I have coordinated local pilots and European research projects to analyse and improve long-term care for older people by better integrating health and social care systems. One of my conclusions from the wide range of initiatives that have been taken over the past two decades in Europe has been the need to treat long-term care as a system in its own right. Long-term care systems require a discernable identity; specif…

Care Work in Europe
Developing integrated health and social care services for older persons in Europe
Far from a European vision concerning integrated care, national health and social care systems remain-at best-loosely coupled systems that are facing increasing difficulties, given the current challenges, in particular in long-term care for older persons: increasing marketisation, lack of managerial knowledge (co-operation, co-ordination), shortage of care workers and a general trend towards down-sizing of social care services continue to hamper …
