Abstract

This paper explores the role ICTs play in the multidisciplinary teams (MDTMs) in healthcare settings. The discussion addresses benefits and challenges of ICTs along with implications for MTDMs. For example, clarification between electronic health records (EHRs) and electronic medical records (EMRs) along with their impact on privacy was made. The paper offers certain suggestions on overcoming some of the challenges identified. Retchin's (2008) framework for inter-professional and co-managed care was presented. The framework focuses on how information communication technologies can impact overall patient health care and delivery.
