The article discusses a study that explored elements associated with the frequency of multidisciplinary Team Care Arrangements (TCA) and the impact of TCA on patient-assessed quality of care in Australian general practice. The authors report having collected data as part of a randomized controlled trial conducted in 60 general practices in New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory, and Victoria between July 2006 and June 2008. The findings reported are viewed as consistent with the TCA objective, though considerable obstacles to TCA use remain.
