Time to dismiss the idea of a structural fix within government? An analysis of intersectoral action for health in Danish municipalities.

CONCLUSIONS: It is time to dismiss the idea that intersectoral action for health can be achieved by means of a structural fix. Rather than rearranging organizational boundaries it may be more useful to seek to manage the silos which exist in any organization, e.g. by promoting awareness of their implications for public health action and by enhancing the boundary spanning skills of public health officers.
