Abstract

Provision of integrated care is a challenge in patients with multimorbidity. Patients describe their pathway in the healthcare system as fragmented and important information is often not shared between sectors. The evidence regarding organisation of healthcare supporting patient-centered care in patients with multimorbidity is scarce. This review finds that longer consultation time, patient-centered care, prioritizing and cross-sectorial coordination seem to be promising organizational methods to improve care in patients with complex multimorbidity.
