    Obra que presenta una fundamentación teórica, técnica y legal de Modelo de Enfermería Comunitaria de Enlace.

En esta obra se presentan los fundamentos de su creación, la legislación que la ampara, la forma en que se organiza y los principios de su funcionamiento. Se propone, además, un protocolo básico para el desarrollo de la gestión de casos, y se analiza su impacto sobre los indicadores económicos y de resultados del sistema sanitario. Evalúa el coste económico de la puesta en marcha del modelo propuesto, y su efectividad según los indicadores económicos, de procesos y de resultados del sistema sanitario.
