ObjectivesCurrent healthcare reimbursement system is criticised for not adequately compensating physicians’ cognitive services. This study was performed to examine primary care physicians’ consultation fees in nine countries, relative to the national hourly minimum wage and to examine the correlations of the physician consultation fee with consultation length and other healthcare indices.Design and outcome measuresNine reference countries for which healthcare statistics are publicly available and outpatient consultation is compensated by fee-for-service payment were selected.

Abstract:
Patient enablement is a possible outcome of primary health care consultations and has been employed as a marker of effective helpgiving. We studied predictors of patient enablement, investigating the relative contribution of patient characteristics (gender, age, occupational status, and perceived health status), visit characteristics (length of consultation, duration of physician-patient relationship, and frequency of consultations), and the physician's reported helpgiving style (level of encouragement of patient participation in the consultation).

Abstract:
Background and objectives: The consultation time for more mature adults is often perceived as longer, increasing with the patient’s age and boosting their satisfaction with the visit. However, factors determining patient satisfaction (PS) or the consultation time (CT) in the population aged 50+ are not clearly identified. A cross-sectional design was used to identify factors specific to the facility (e.g., size, staff turnover), doctor (e.g., seniority, workload), and patient (e.g., self-rated health, impairment of activities) that are related to PS and the CT.

Abstract:
The optimal number of doctors and appointment interval for an outpatient appointment system in a class of individual block/fixed interval are determined using an adaptive-penalty Genetic Algorithm. The length of service time for doctor consultation, the time required for the laboratory tests, and the time deviating from the appointment time are modelled by random variables. No-show patients are also included in the system. Using the adaptive penalty scheme, optimization constraints are automatically and numerically handled. The solution methodology is readily applicable to other appointment sy

Introduction: Patient satisfaction has been found to be a determinant of patient compliance to medical advice and treatment, medical service utilisation, the doctor–patient relationship, and continuity of care. Assessment of patient satisfaction can be used to evaluate health care services and identify areas to target for quality improvement. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the satisfaction level of patients attending a primary care clinic and its associated factors.

Abstract:
Purpose: Teenagers and young adults (TYAs; aged 13–24) experience prolonged intervals to cancer diagnosis. Insight into diagnostic intervals in young adults (YAs; aged 25–39) and subgroups at risk for long intervals is lacking. We investigated the diagnostic pathway of YA cancer patients, examined patient and tumor characteristics associated with its length, and compared the patient interval length of our sample with a TYA cohort. Methods: In this cross-sectional survey YAs diagnosed with cancer in the UK in the past five years completed a questionnaire describing their patient (time from firs

Abstract:
We conducted a systematic review of remote interpretation. Any published or unpublished research article that had telephone or videoconferenced interpretation as an intervention was included in the review. Nine articles were identified: seven on telephone and two on videoconferenced interpretation. Only one study was a randomized controlled trial. Remote interpretation was associated with shorter intervals between consultations, but there were no consistent differences in relation to consultation length. Client and doctor satisfaction was as good with remote interpretation as with face-to-face

Abstract:
The consultation is the GP’s form of work. How long a consultation should be, and what short/long consultations imply with regard to the satisfaction of patient and doctor has been much debated. The aim of this thesis was to study consultations with regard to content and time consumption in a short term and long term perspective. Three studies were carried out. 1. Consultations with the members of a group of GPs were investigated, where patients and doctors separately assessed different aspects of the consultation, and their ratings were related to the real length of the consultations.
