Ambulatory geriatric rehabilitation (AGR) is a multidisciplinary outpatient prevention program designed to decrease hospitalisation and dependence on nursing care. AGR was introduced within the legal frame in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern in 2008 as a pilot program. This prevention program aims to strengthen and stabilise the physical status of frail geriatric patients, enabling them to maintain independent living. We evaluated AGR using claims data as well as clinical outcomes.
