The invisible work of personal health information management among people with multiple chronic conditions: qualitative interview study among patients and providers.
The researchers conducted a semistructured interview study with 22 patients with multiple chronic conditions (MCC) with the objective of exploring their role in managing their personal health information. They concluded that personal health information management should be recognized as an additional burden that MCC places upon patients. Their findings suggest that both provider-centered and patient-centered information technologies will continue to be needed.
