Patients with an osteoporosis-related fracture (fragility fracture) often do not receive appropriate care. Without adequate measures, osteoporosis will be one of the greatest challenges for the Swiss healthcare system in the coming years.
Patients with a fragility fracture are identified with regard to osteoporosis and receive an adequate diagnosis.
Treatment of newly diagnosed osteoporosis will be initiated during hospitalization. Overall, the quality of patient care is improved in terms of secondary prevention.
