Abstract:
Accurately measuring the quality of care that ambulatory care physicians provide is an important endeavor. Current measurement instruments, while offering useful information about care systems, remain suboptimal for the measurement of individual physician performance. We offer the quality care opportunities model of ambulatory care physician performance measurement, which may address issues with current instruments while also offering useful information about efficiency and productivity for individual physicians and delivery systems from a patient-centered perspective.
