Key Points

To evaluate the impact of a multidisciplinary team (MDT) model on healthcare cost trajectories over three years.
Implemented a multidisciplinary team model in Finnish primary and secondary care.
Followed participants over a three-year period to analyze cost trajectories.
Measured and compared glycaemic control as a secondary outcome.
MDT implementation was associated with lower cost growth over three years.
Glycaemic control remained stable, indicating no compromise in health outcomes.
