Since most patients with COVID-19 in Germany had been primarily cared for by general practitioners, the question arose whether the incidence course of a pandemic can be mapped by means of a regular evaluation of GP workload and number of patients.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>From January 2021 to June 2021, 12 replicative, internet-based cross-sectional surveys were conducted fortnightly. Invitations were sent out to all members of the German Society of General Practice/Family Medicine (DEGAM) and selected federal/regional member organizations of the German Association of General Practitioners. They were asked about increases in personal workload, number of patients with COVID-19, and other conditions of patient care.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>On average, 697 general practitioners (GPs) participated in each survey and completed a total of 8,369 questionnaires. The composition of participants remained consistent across the 12 survey periods, with 82.9–87.2 % being practice owners and 32.0–40.7 % working in group practices. Over time, the proportion of physicians reporting an increased workload reached a minimum of 24.2 % in February 2021; from March 2021 onward, there was a trend reversal with a peak (88.1 %) in May 2021. The change in the GPs’ workload developed in phases that ran parallel to the official RKI reporting data on the COVID-19 incidence. The reported increase in the care deficit for patients with chronic diseases or social problems did not show a temporal dynamic comparable to the reported incidence trend.</div></div><div><h3>Discussion</h3><div>A replicative survey among GPs conducted between January 2021 and June 2021 revealed changes in the workload of general practitioners under pandemic conditions. The progression of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic during the same period and the observed change in workload developed in parallel. The methodology used (an internet-based, replicative survey among GPs) could therefore be a low-threshold, resource-saving approach to assessing the course of a pandemic. Despite the increasing workload during the different waves of the pandemic, the care for chronically ill patients reported by the GPs was not subject to any pandemic-related dynamics.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":46628,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift fur Evidenz Fortbildung und Qualitaet im Gesundheitswesen","volume":"197 ","pages":"Pages 38-46"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144973777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous studies show that palliative care in Westphalia-Lippe (WL) – measured by quality and cost indicators – performs better than in other regions. The Westphalian model for outpatient care emphasizes a close cooperation between general practitioners (GPs) and palliative care consultation services (PCS). The basis is a contractual regulation of general and specialized care within a joint outpatient palliative care contract according to Sect. 140a SGB V. The VESPAL study (on the &lt;em&gt;Quality of care in outpatient palliative care based on the example of Westphalia-Lippe&lt;/em&gt;), which was funded by the Professional Association of Palliative Care Physicians in Westfalen-Lippe (Berufsverband der Palliativmediziner in Westfalen-Lippe e.V.) and the Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians (Kassenärztliche Vereinigung Westfalen-Lippe e.V.), was conducted between 02/2022 and 07/2023 and examined which characteristics of outpatient palliative care in WL could be identified from the correlation of quantitative key figures with qualitative interview quotes that might contribute to high-quality care and cost-effectiveness.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Methods&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;A complex mixed-methods design was applied. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected and analyzed simultaneously, were used as a basis for further qualitative research, and then merged (QUAL+QUAN → QUAL). The quantitative data were derived from a routine data analysis on the utilization and quality of palliative care from data of deceased patients who had been covered by the BARMER health insurance, while qualitative data were obtained using five non-participant observations, interviews with 50 care providers (general practitioners, palliative care physicians, coordinators, nurses), and three focus groups. Both data sets were analyzed independently, with the quantitative results being complemented by qualitative insights to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the WL care model.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Results&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;The quantitative parameters used to measure the quality of care included, in particular: the hospital as place of death, the number of hospital cases, and the number of ambulance call-outs in the last 30 days of life. The qualitative study results show that these parameters can be improved by a close cooperation and specific arrangements with emergency services and nursing homes. According to the interviewees, the typical Westphalian organization of cooperation between doctors and PCS enables providers to respond quickly and provide care which is focused on the needs of patients and their relatives and can be flexibly “ramped up and down”. Providers emphasized the flexibility of the model, the close cooperation, and the lack of competitive pressure from each other as reasons for the high quality of care perceived.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Conclusions&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;The r","PeriodicalId":46628,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift fur Evidenz Fortbildung und Qualitaet im Gesundheitswesen","volume":"197 ","pages":"Pages 19-29"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144643827","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
