PACIC - Experiences from PRAXARTH, PROMPT and ELSID Provider support for chronic illness care: German primary care validation (Arthritis): age, female -> pos. correlation; education -> neg. correlation in PACIC PACIC as a outcome in a randomized intervention trial (Depression): significant higher ratings in intervention, major effects in „problem solving“ scale PACIC as a outcome in a large scale disease management evaluation (Diabetes): significant higher ratings in intervention, all subscales -> The PACIC is a reliable and valid instrument to assess the congruency of care to the CCM of patients with chronic diseases.
