Summary

The aim of the project is to explore if a complementary addition of a care manager for depression treatment in the primary care setting has positive effects concerning reduction of the patients' depressive symptoms as well as improvement of daily function and quality of life in a short- and long-term perspective compared with the traditional Swedish primary care organization. The aim is also to evaluate the care manager function in a health economic perspective.

The specific aims are to develop and evaluate an evidence-based care manager program for patients with mild to moderate depression and to compare the evidence-based care manager program to treatment as usual (TAU) in terms of their short- and long-term effects on symptom remission, treatment adherence, care satisfaction, and self-efficacy as well as to perform a cost - effectiveness analysis of the care manager program, i.e. to evaluate the effects of the program on patients' health in relation to the running costs of the program.
