    BACKGROUND: National performance measures monitor the proportion of diabetic patients with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels >/=130 mg/dL, but such simple intermediate outcomes measure poor control, not necessarily poor care. "Tightly linked" quality measures define good quality either by a good intermediate outcome (LDL /=130 mg/dL using the simple intermediate outcome measure, only 13% (148 of 1154) were classified as having substandard qual…

  • Racial Disparities in Diabetes Care Processes, Outcomes, and Treatment Intensity

    Michele Heisler, Dylan M Smith et al.ARTICLEMedical Care2003Referencias: 53

    BACKGROUND: Black Americans with diabetes have a higher burden of illness and mortality than do white Americans. However, the extent to which differences in medical care processes and treatment intensity contribute to poorer diabetes outcomes is unknown. OBJECTIVE: To assess racial disparities in the quality of diabetes care processes, intermediate outcomes, and treatment intensity. METHODS: We conducted an observational study of 801 white and 11…
