Abstract:
Family-centered care (FCC) focuses on considering the family in planning/implementing care and is associated with increased patient satisfaction. Little is known about factors that influence FCC. Using linear mixed modeling and Generalized Estimating Equations to analyze data from a cross-sectional survey of primary care practices in Ontario, this study sought to determine whether models of primary care service delivery differ in their provision of FCC and to identify characteristics of primary care practices associated with FCC. Patient-reported scores of FCC were high, but did not differ sig

Abstract:
This dissertation investigates how patient-perceived integrated care and manager commitment influence the improvement and integration of health care delivery. Using survey instruments, across three studies I examine potential mechanisms for improving health care delivery: patient perceptions of integrated care, a physician organization care management program, and manager commitment to a quality improvement program. In Chapter Two, I examine how patient-perceived integrated care relates to utilization of health services. I assess relationships between provider performance on 11 domains of pa
