Abstract
- The article discusses a study undertaken as part of the Evaluation of Care Across Borders (ECAB) project on cross-border care collaborations with the aim of describing pediatric cross-border care pathways and identifying factors that support or hinder its operation. Topics discussed include the Malta-Great Britain agreement that provides for free treatment of up to 180 Maltese patients in Great Britain every year where patients referred above this quota incur a charge to the Maltese government.
