Abstract in brief

  • The Western Australian Undiagnosed Diseases Program (UDPWA) effectively redesigned clinician workflows to promote multidisciplinary teamwork, which is essential for diagnosing rare diseases, using a SMART work design approach that emphasizes stimulation, mastery, agency, relations, and tolerable demands.
  • The success of the program is attributed to improving key psychosocial work characteristics—such as collaboration and autonomy—that are often lacking in traditional healthcare settings, thereby facilitating better diagnoses through more integrated teamwork.
  • The authors propose a framework based on SMART work design principles that healthcare professionals and policymakers can apply to redesign jobs in healthcare, creating more effective, collaborative, and innovative work environments to enhance rare disease diagnosis.
