AB  - "This chapter focus on Norwegian healthcare policies and regulations for  care coordination and patient safety. The Norwegian Coordination Reform implemented  in 2012 emphasizes patient engagement, care pathways, and competence  development in municipal healthcare services. Moreover, protocols for division of  work tasks and collaboration between specialist and municipal healthcare services  are key aspects. The reform identifies fragmented health services and the lack of  coordinated care as main challenges. The authors introduce the concepts of care  coordination, continuity of care and patient handovers, and relate these to patient  safety. Results from a Norwegian observational study, identifying factors affecting  care coordination and patient safety in care transitions between hospital and municipal  care, are presented. Finally, the authors introduce relevant measures to improve  care coordination and patient safety, including the regulatory work and follow-up  of health services through nationwide audits performed by the Norwegian Board of  Health Supervision."
