Administrative Versus Clinical Data for Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery Report Cards
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to compare the performance of a risk model for isolated coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery based on administrative data with that of a clinical risk model in predicting mortality and identifying hospital performance outliers. METHODS: Clinical data records from the California CABG Mortality Reporting Program for 38,230 isolated CABG patients undergoing surgery in 2000-2001 were linked to records…
What is the Concordance Between the Medical Record and Patient Self-Report as Data Sources for Ambulatory Care
BACKGROUND: The validity of quality of care assessments relies upon data quality, yet little is known about the relative completeness and validity of data sources for evaluating the quality of care. OBJECTIVES: We evaluated concordance between ambulatory medical record and patient survey data. Levels of concordance, variations by type of item, sources of disagreement between data sources, and implications for quality of care assessment efforts ar…
The entry of underrepresented minority students into US medical schools
OBJECTIVES: Recent challenges to affirmative action suggest the need to reassess the status of the admission of underrepresented minority students to US medical schools. METHODS: The Association of American medical colleges provided US medical school enrollment data and characteristics. Five measures of underrepresented minority enrolled and an overall performance scale were constructed for each school. Multivariate regression identified signific…
Differences in the effect of patients' socioeconomic status on the use of invasive cardiovascular procedures across health insurance categories
OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated the effect of patients' socioeconomic status on use of coronary angiography, bypass grafting, and angioplasty across health insurance categories. METHODS: Multiple logistic regression was used to compute the odds of receiving each procedure among 206 233 ischemic heart disease patients residing in urban California zip codes from 1991 through 1993. RESULTS: Residents of high socioeconomic status areas were more lik…
Racial and ethnic disparities in the use of cardiovascular procedures
OBJECTIVES: This study examined whether disparities in the use of cardiovascular procedures exist among African Americans, Latinos, and Asians relative to White patients, within health insurance categories. METHODS: Hospital discharge records (n = 104,952) of Los Angeles Country, California, residents with possible coronary artery disease were analyzed. RESULTS: After adjustment for confounders, lower odds of procedure use were found for African …
Racial and ethnic differences in the use of invasive cardiac procedures among cardiac patients in Los Angeles County, 1986 through 1988
OBJECTIVES. The purpose of the study was to compare use of invasive cardiovascular procedures among Latino, Asian, African-American, and White patients. METHODS. In a cross-sectional study of hospital discharge data, multiple logistic regression was used to model use of coronary artery angiography, bypass graft surgery, and angioplasty among adult Los Angeles County residents discharged from California hospitals between 1986 and 1988 with primary…
HMO vs fee-for-service care of older persons with acute myocardial infarction
OBJECTIVES. Health maintenance organizations (HMOs) continue to grow in number and in their enrollment of Medicare recipients. They are also increasingly viewed as organizational structures that might contribute to control of health care costs. Yet little is known about the quality of care that elderly HMO enrollees receive. METHODS. We compared patients from three HMOs to a fee-for-service (FFS) sample that was national in scope. Sickness at adm…
