An important paradigm shift within healthcare is the shift toward patientcentered care (PCC). Multidisciplinary team meetings (MDTM) are considered essential for PCC, despite being considered time-consuming and expensive. Patientcentered information (PCI) is known to improve the quality of care. This study investigated where and how the PCI of multidisciplinary professionals’ health records exists, and to explore the possibility of a sustainable PCC-supporting healthcare system. We performed an exploratory pilot study of the patient records of three patients with breast cancer. We observed that PCI was documented throughout the care pathway in the cases examined. However, we also found that these data were fragmented and scattered across various medical records, and they were also from different point of views and patient care perspectives. PCI was founded to be less accessible than traditional medical records and was even hard to find using a manual search. We therefore propose that preparing PCI for MDTM may be one of the obvious burdens for healthcare professionals (HPs). We do however believe that integrating PCI from multiple professionals’ records likely plays an important function in a shift towards PCC and serves to improve not only the quality of care but also the HPs’ experiences without additional burden and could contribute to a more sustainable health care system.
