title: [Long-term outcomes of psychosomatic rehabilitation].
abstract: According to the latest state of research psychosomatic rehabilitation can be considered as effective and efficient. Several program-evaluation studies document process and outcomes of over 4000 psychosomatic patients in rehabilitation clinics so far. The majority of patients in all studies show positive therapy outcomes, which also can be demonstrated in follow-up investigations. Those positive results cover disease and disorder related aspects as well as cost relevant facets. This paper presents one of those program-evaluation studies which reports the outcomes of a one year and a five year follow-up respectively. It focuses on the outcomes of those subjects which participated in both inquiries. In addition to single criteria the construction of a multiple outcome criterion is discussed.
