An other publication from the research group is conducted by Anton Modigh, Filipa Sampaio, Linda Moberg & Mio Fredriksson in Health policy. It studies the impact of patient and public involvement by comparing health research with healthcare.

Finally, there is an article written by Inga-Britt Gustafsson, Ulrika Winblad, Lars Wallin & Mio Fredriksson in BMC Health Service Research. It studies factors that shape the successful implementation of decommissioning programmes by conducting an interview study with clinical managers. They conclude that in order to successfully implement a decommissioning programme, clinic managers and healthcare professionals must be given and take responsibility, for both the process and outcome.
