Organizational and financial challenges in care transitions: a qualitative study of long-term care systems in Germany, the Netherlands and Poland
Our study adds to existing frameworks in this area by highlighting the importance of regulatory aspects and the availability of protocols for optimizing care transitions. These factors have received little attention in previous studies but can hamper care transitions if not adequately designed.
