Summary

In recent decades, local healthcare services have undergone dramatic changes. The World Health Organization (WHO) refers to a shift from specialized hospital to local healthcare services to meet the growing expectations for better performance and outcomes in health care and better value for money. It is unique that Central Denmark Region has assigned phase II cardiac rehabilitation (CR) as a local healthcare task. However, there is sparse knowledge about how this reform may influence processes of care and outcomes in CR. This association is important to investigate when dramatic organisational changes in settings of evidence based interventions is implemented, as well as in relation to helping people with heart disease return to an active and satisfying everyday life.
