Titles, abstracts, and full texts were screened for eligible studies and assessed for relevance. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were implemented to ensure that only studies relevant to our objective were included. The convergent integrated analysis framework suggested by the Joanna Briggs Institute was utilized for data synthesis.Results: Ten studies were included in the systematic review. Data synthesis revealed five major themes at different levels: 1) Patient level, including themes of Patients’ Self-Improvement and Patients’ Health Outcomes; 2) Interpersonal level, including themes of Providers’ Work Performance and Shared Decision Making; and 3) Organizational level, including the theme of Healthcare Utilization.Conclusion: ITBC has a significant positive impact on chronically ill patients at multiple levels. At the patient level, it enhances self-management and health outcomes. At the interpersonal level, it improves healthcare providers’ performance and promotes shared decision-making. At the organizational level, it leads to more efficient healthcare utilization.Keywords: interdisciplinary team-based care, chronic illness, patient outcomes, systematic review |
