Research output: ThesisThesis fully internal (DIV)

Abstract

This thesis investigates the cooperation among medical specialists in multidisciplinary teams as well as its antecedents and consequences. During meetings, medical specialists combine their knowledge and expertise, discuss the health problems of patients, weigh possible treatment options and decide on the most appropriate treatment plan. As a result of the increase in the complexity of health care demand, this kind of multidisciplinary teamwork has become more and more important in the management of patients with complex health care demands.
