Description: Chronic conditions represent an increasing public health challenge. While concepts like person-centered care, shared decision-making, and self-management are increasingly promoted, their practical realization remains difficult within our disease-centered healthcare system. The Assessment of Burden of Chronic Conditions (ABCC) tool may contribute to a more person-centered approach within the current healthcare system. This tool can support patients and healthcare providers in developing personalized care plans by measuring and visualizing perceived disease burden. Research indicates that the questions within the ABCC tool are valid and reliable for COPD, asthma, type 2 diabetes, chronic heart failure, osteoarthritis, and colorectal cancer. An effectiveness study found that using the tool resulted in significant differences in perceived quality of care and patient activation compared to control. However, outcomes like quality of life and well-being showed no significant differences in this study. Future research should focus on validation for multimorbidity, long-term effects, and implementation strategies.
