  • Asymmetry in inter-municipal cooperation in health services - How does it affect service quality and autonomy

    Open Access•Bjørnulf Arntsen, Dag Olaf Torjesen et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science & Medicine•2021•Cited by: 9•References: 32

    Throughout Europe, local health services are increasingly being provided through various forms of inter-municipal cooperation (IMC). One of the most common forms of IMC is when small municipalities delegate the operational responsibility for providing health services to a larger host municipality. However, despite the size asymmetry usually inherent in this type of IMC, this aspect has largely been neglected in the existing literature, which main…

  • Associations between structures, processes and outcomes in inter-municipal cooperation in out-of-hours services in Norway

    Open Access•Bjørnulf Arntsen, Dag Olaf Torjesen et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science & Medicine•2020•Cited by: 2•References: 38

    Inter-municipal cooperation (IMC) has gained widespread recognition as a beneficial strategy for improving efficiency and quality in the provision of out-of-hours emergency care services (OOH services). Little attention, however, has been given to the additional costs of cooperation and the relational processes through which benefits and costs are likely to result. Based on survey data from 266 (77%) Norwegian municipalities involved in IMC in OO…

  • Drivers and barriers of inter-municipal cooperation in health services – the Norwegian case

    Bjørnulf Arntsen, Dag Olaf Torjesen et al.•ARTICLE•Local Government Studies•2018•Cited by: 8•References: 23

    Inter-municipal cooperation in service delivery is widespread, as is the notion that this type of cooperation is primarily driven by economies of scale. However, the empirical results appear to be inconclusive, suggesting that additional explanatory factors are needed to explain why municipalities cooperate. This study aimed to identify the factors and conditions that influence the level of inter-municipal cooperation in health services by explor…
