However, this requires a shift in the division of tasks, and general practitioners\u2019 barriers and facilitators for this are currently unknown.

General practitioners with a variation in demographics and experience with task-delegation to clinical staff were recruited for in-depth interviews. We used a phenomenological approach to guide the data collection and the analysis in order to gain insight into the subjective experiences of the general practitioners and to understand the phenomenon of \u2018delegating tasks to practice staff\u2019 from the perspective of the general practitioners\u2019 lifeworld.
