The impact of performance incentives on child health outcomes: Results from a cluster randomized controlled trial in the Philippines
Improving clinical performance using measurement and payment incentives, including pay for performance (or P4P), has, so far, shown modest to no benefit on patient outcomes. Our objective was to assess the impact of a P4P programme on paediatric health outcomes in the Philippines. We used data from the Quality Improvement Demonstration Study. In this study, the P4P intervention, introduced in 2004, was randomly assigned to 10 community district h…
Patient and provider perspectives on quality and health system effectiveness in a transition economy: Evidence from Ukraine
A novel method for measuring health care system performance: Experience from Qids in the Philippines
OBJECTIVES: Measuring and monitoring health system performance is important albeit controversial. Technical, logistic and financial challenges are formidable. We introduced a system of measurement, which we call Q, to measure the quality of hospital clinical performance across a range of facilities. This paper describes how Q was developed, implemented in hospitals in the Philippines and how it compares with typical measures. METHODS: Q consists …
A cross-national comparison of the quality of clinical care using vignettes
In studies comparing clinical practice to evidence-based standards, researchers have found that quality of care is inconsistently provided to different segments of the population in both developing and developed countries. To test the hypothesis that quality of care varies widely within different countries, we conducted a prospectively designed evaluation of quality for three common clinical conditions: diarrhoea, tuberculosis and prenatal care. …
Are clinical criteria just proxies for socioeconomic status? A study of low birth weight in Jamaica
OBJECTIVE: To determine if the clinical risk factors for low birth weight are independent of socioeconomic risk factors in a population based sample from a developing country. DESIGN: Survey data from patient reported socioeconomic measures and their most recent pregnancy history. SETTING: A national sample of randomly selected households in Jamaica. SUBJECTS: All women aged 14-50 in the household who had a pregnancy lasting seven months in the p…
