Abstract
This article examines some of the literature regarding the benefits of interprofessional education (IPE) in the field of health care. These benefits in relation to service users (and carers), higher education institutions, service providers and students are all explored. Barriers to IPE are being broken down by many of the various stakeholders working towards a similar agenda. However, currently there remains some doubt as to whether IPE has a direct positive impact on the health gain of service users and carers. Research is needed to demonstrate if service users and carers benefit directly from IPE and if they do not, the reason for pursuing it needs to be questioned.
