Nurse Practitioners (NPs) offer healthcare comparable to physicians, excelling in patient education and case management for chronic conditions. This pilot study adapted a national survey to better capture NP-led care in nurse-managed centers.

Area of Science:

Nursing
Health Services Research
Ambulatory Care

Background:

Nurse Practitioners (NPs) demonstrate healthcare equivalence to physicians, particularly in patient education and case management for chronic ambulatory conditions.
Existing national surveys like the National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey (NAMCS) inadequately represent NP-led care, with only 2.1% of a 2000 sample from NP encounters.
Nurse-managed centers are excluded from current national ambulatory care survey sampling frames.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a web-based version of the NAMCS to improve data collection.
To enhance the survey by incorporating nursing diagnoses, interventions, and outcomes.
To pilot-test the modified survey with 300 patient encounters across five nurse-managed centers.

Main Methods:

Development of a web-based data collection tool based on the NAMCS.
Integration of specific nursing diagnoses, interventions, and outcome measures into the survey instrument.
Pilot testing of the enhanced survey across five distinct nurse-managed centers, collecting data from 300 patient encounters.

Main Results:

The study successfully created and pilot-tested a web-based, enhanced NAMCS format.
The modified survey facilitated the inclusion of nursing-specific data points.
Data were collected from 300 patient encounters in nurse-managed settings, demonstrating feasibility.

Conclusions:

A web-based, enhanced NAMCS is a viable method for capturing NP-led care in nurse-managed centers.
This approach can provide more comprehensive data on the role and impact of NPs in ambulatory care.
Further large-scale implementation is warranted to fully assess NP contributions to chronic disease self-management.
