Cost-effectiveness analysis of systematic fast-track transition from oncological treatment to specialised palliative care at home for patients and their caregivers: the DOMUS trial

Table 1 Estimated time used for the psychological intervention

Components	Estimated time used
Start of intervention	10 min
Home conference	75 min
Counselling with patient	60 min
Counselling with caregiver	60 min
Counselling with patient and caregiver	90 min
Transport time to counselling or home conference	30 min
Telephone need assessment	25 min
Contact with specialised palliative teams	10 min
Writing in journals after counselling	15 min

Note: Transport time was assumed to 30 min, even though the project psychologists used 1 hr. The rationale behind this is that if implemented the psychologists would be affiliated with the local SPC-teams. Source: Four psychologists involved in the DOMUS-study
