Limitations of traditional medical systems to deal with complex health issues during the last two decades have prompted the use of interdisciplinary health care teams. Currently, much of the interdisciplinary health care team literature is descriptive in nature making it difficult to focus research imperatives. The purposes of this report include development of a systems research model to analyze the impact of interdisciplinary teams in health care and to define topics and questions for research on interdisciplinary teams by a meta-analysis of published reports.
