Sammanfattning
Outreach visits were successfully introduced and implemented in general practice in Ribe County during 2001-2002. The main purpose of the visits has been to increase the focus on rational pharmacotherapy and GPs' awareness of their own prescribing profiles. All practices except one (25 of 26) accepted the initial invitation to participate. The number of correct answers on a prescribing profile pools coupon increased from an average of 6.9 in 2001 to an average of 8.1 in 2002. The economic side effects of the intervention indicate a large potential for optimizing drug prescribing , thus obtaining better value for money.
