Abstract
BACKGROUND: To cover future needs of specialised geriatric patient-centred care, existing structures need to be developed further. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Taking into account regional structures of providing care, the Federal Association of Geriatric Medicine in Germany developed the concept of Cross-Border Cooperation in Geriatric Medicine. RESULTS: This concept combines specific geriatric expertise provided by inpatient health care with specialised networking in ambulatory treatment of elderly with a typical geriatric profile. The objective is to provide geriatric patients with a holistic and specific care and case management that overcomes existing limitations.
