Coordination of care for patients with chronic disease

Paul A Hartigan, Tuck Meng Soo and Marjan Kljakovic
MJA 2009; 191 (8): 471-472

However, they state that “the idea of team care still has merit” and that although there is “ample room for improvement in the current process”, they “cannot agree with Hartigan et al’s radical prescription to replace TCAs with patient summaries”.1
