Double documentation is today a work problem for healthcare professionals. The purpose of the report is to make a current report on how and why duplicate documentation occurs in the health care sector in the region of Gävleborg. A descriptive case study was conducted focusing on how healthcare professionals insert patient data into multiple information systems.
