Priority measures for publicly reporting primary care performance
OBJECTIVE: While public reporting of hospital-based performance measurement is commonplace, it has lagged in the primary care sector, especially in Canada. Despite the increasing recognition of patients as active partners in the health-care system, little is known about what information about primary care performance is relevant to the Canadian public. We explored patient perspectives and priorities for the public reporting of primary care perfor…
Citizen perspectives on the use of publicly reported primary care performance information
OBJECTIVE: Performance measurement and reporting is proliferating in all sectors of the healthcare system, including primary care, despite a dearth of evidence on how the public uses reports on primary care performance. We explored how the public might use this information, to guide the development of effective reporting systems for primary care. METHODS: We conducted six full-day deliberative dialogue sessions with a purposive sample of 56 citiz…
Equity of primary care service delivery for low income “sicker” adults across 10 OECD countries
Inequities in quality PC for low and middle income groups exist on at least one dimension in all countries, including some that in theory provide universal access. More research is needed to fully understand equity in the PC sector
The influence of gender and other patient characteristics on health care-seeking behaviour
BACKGROUND: Canadians' health care-seeking behaviour for physical and mental health issues was examined using the international Quality and Cost of Primary Care (QUALICOPC) survey that was conducted in 2013 in Canada. METHOD: This study used the cross-sectional Patient Experiences Survey collected from 7260 patients in 759 practices across 10 Canadian provinces as part of the QUALICOPC study. A Responsive Care Scale (RCS) was constructed to refle…
A Comprehensive Assessment of Family Physician Gender and Quality of Care
BACKGROUND: Studies evaluating primary care quality across physician gender are limited to primary and secondary prevention. OBJECTIVES: Investigate the relationship between family physician gender and quality of primary care using indicators that cover 5 key dimensions of primary care. RESEARCH DESIGN: Cross-sectional analysis using linked health administrative datasets (April 1, 2008 to March 31, 2010). SUBJECTS: All family physicians working i…
Did Family Physicians Who Opted into a New Payment Model Receive an Offer They Should Not Refuse? Experimental Evidence from Ontario
It is widely believed that the traditional way of remunerating primary care physicians—namely, the fee-for-service (FFS) mechanism—generates suboptimal incentives to health care providers. The alternative payment scheme that is typically preferred involves some form of capitation. The objective of this paper is to investigate the degree to which family physicians (FPs) benefited financially after having switched from the traditional FFS mode of p…
A cross-sectional, population-based study measuring comorbidity among people living with HIV in Ontario
People living with HIV in Ontario, especially women, had higher prevalence of comorbidity and multimorbidity than the general population. Quantifying this morbidity at the population level can help inform healthcare delivery requirements for this complex population
Comparative Efficiency Assessment of Primary Care Service Delivery Models Using Data Envelopment Analysis
This paper compares the relative productive efficiencies of four models of primary care service delivery using the data envelopment analysis method on 130 primary care practices in Ontario, Canada. A quality-controlled measure of output and two input scenarios are employed: one with full-time-equivalent labour inputs and the other with total expenditures. Regression analysis controls for the mix of patients in the practice population. Overall, we…
An evaluation of gender equity in different models of primary care practices in Ontario
The observed differences in the type of health promotion subjects discussed are likely an appropriate response to the differential healthcare needs between genders. Chronic disease care is non equitable in FFS but not in capitation based models. We recommend that efforts to monitor and address gender based differences in the delivery of chronic disease management in primary care be pursued
Interdisciplinary physical activity counseling in primary care
The Physical Activity Counseling randomized controlled trial integrated a physical activity (PA) counselor into a primary care practice to provide intensive counseling to sedentary patients following brief counseling from their regular health care provider. This article presents the voices of 15 patients, who through a series of 3 interviews, described their experience with this 3-month combined provider PA counseling intervention. Patient satisf…
A Theory-Based Evaluation Framework for Primary Care
Primary care reform has triggered a flood of demonstration projects across Canada that need to be evaluated. This presents a challenge to an evaluator who is uncertain about how to convince clinical investigators to think beyond traditional research designs toward using evaluation approaches. The purpose of this article is to describe the application and benefits of using a theory-based evaluation framework for a large evaluation of four unique m…

Controlling Weapons in Turbulent Times
INTRODUCTIONA security dilemma problem in international relations refers to a situation where sovereign states, in the context of an anarchic international system, will arm themselves for fear of being dominated by their neighbours.(1) Security dilemmas can be mitigated, but mitigation can lead to two divergent outcomes--peace or conflict. A state can mitigate the security dilemma problem by balancing the armed power of its neighbours--levelling …
