Abstract

Background

We have little systematic information about the extent to which standard processes involved in health care — a key element of quality — are delivered in the United States.

Methods

We telephoned a random sample of adults living in 12 metropolitan areas in the United States and asked them about selected health care experiences. We also received written consent to copy their medical records for the most recent two-year period and used this information to evaluate performance on 439 indicators of quality of care for 30 acute and chronic conditions as well as preventive care. We then constructed aggregate scores.

Results

Participants received 54.9 percent (95 percent confidence interval, 54.3 to 55.5) of recommended care. We found little difference among the proportion of recommended preventive care provided (54.9 percent), the proportion of recommended acute care provided (53.5 percent), and the proportion of recommended care provided for chronic conditions (56.1 percent). Among different medical functions, adherence to the processes involved in care ranged from 52.2 percent for screening to 58.5 percent for follow-up care. Quality varied substantially according to the particular medical condition, ranging from 78.7 percent of recommended care (95 percent confidence interval, 73.3 to 84.2) for senile cataract to 10.5 percent of recommended care (95 percent confidence interval, 6.8 to 14.6) for alcohol dependence.

Conclusions

The deficits we have identified in adherence to recommended processes for basic care pose serious threats to the health of the American public. Strategies to reduce these deficits in care are warranted.

Article

The degree to which health care in the United States is consistent with basic quality standards is largely unknown.1,2 Although previous studies have documented serious quality deficits, they provide a limited perspective on the issue.3-5 Most have assessed a single condition,6,7 a small number of indicators of quality,8,9 persons with a single type of insurance coverage,10 or persons receiving care in a small geographic area.11,12 The few national studies have been limited to specific segments of the population, such as Medicare beneficiaries13-15 or enrollees in managed-care plans16; have focused on a limited set of topics, such as preventive care,17 diabetes,18 or human immunodeficiency virus19; or have assessed health outcomes without a link to specific processes involved in care.20 As a result, we have no comprehensive view of the level of quality of care given to the average person in the United States. This information gap contributes to a persistent belief that quality is not a serious national problem.1

In this article, we report results from the Community Quality Index (CQI) study, a collateral study of the Community Tracking Study (CTS).21 The CTS, conducted by the Center for Studying Health System Change (CSHSC), monitors changes in health care markets in the United States. The CTS obtains self-reported information from a random sample of the U.S. population on their insurance coverage, patterns of utilization of health care services, and health status. The CSHSC has reported on trends in health care costs,22 factors affecting the choice of employer-sponsored or public insurance,23 and changes in the structure of managed-care plans.24 However, the CTS lacks detailed information about the implications of these variations in health care markets for the quality of health care. By collaborating with the CSHSC, we were able to assess the extent to which the recommended processes of medical care — one critical dimension of quality — are delivered to a representative sample of the U.S. population for a broad spectrum of conditions.

Methods

Recruitment of Participants

In 12 metropolitan areas (Boston; Cleveland; Greenville, S.C.; Indianapolis; Lansing, Mich.; Little Rock, Ark.; Miami; Newark, N.J.; Orange County, Calif.; Phoenix, Ariz.; Seattle; and Syracuse, N.Y.), using random-digit-dial telephone surveys, the CTS deliberately recruited enough participants to assess how structural characteristics in each market (e.g., the penetration of managed care) affect patterns of access to and utilization of health care services. Between October 1998 and August 2000, we recontacted by telephone households that had participated in the CTS interviews. Participants were asked to complete a telephone interview regarding their health history and to provide a listing of all individual or institutional health care providers whom they had seen during the previous two years. Participants who orally agreed to provide access to their medical records were sent written consent forms to sign and return to RAND. Photocopies of the medical records of participants providing written consent were sent to RAND for central abstracting.

Response Rates

Because of the complex, multistage nature of the study design, several calculations of the response rate are provided. Among the 20,028 adults in the initial sample, 2091 (10 percent) were deemed ineligible, primarily because they had left the area. Among the 17,937 eligible adults, 13,275 (74 percent) participated in the telephone interview regarding their health history, including 863 (7 percent) who had had no visits to a health care provider during the previous two years. Among the 12,412 participants who had had visits, 10,404 (84 percent) agreed orally to provide access to their medical records. We obtained written consent from 7528 (61 percent of those with visits to a provider). Participants reported having seen between 1 and 17 providers (mean, 2.6) during the study period. We obtained at least one record for 6712 (89 percent) of those who returned their consent forms. Overall, we received 84 percent of the records for which we had consent forms; we received all expected records for 4612 of the 6712 participants with consent forms and records (69 percent) and all but one record for 1547 of these participants (23 percent). Sensitivity analyses revealed few differences in results related to the completeness of records, so all participants for whom we obtained at least one record were included in the results we report (37 percent of the sample of eligible adults).

Development of Indicators of Quality

The indicators of quality used in the study were derived from RAND's Quality Assessment Tools system.25 RAND staff members selected acute and chronic conditions that represented the leading causes of illness, death, and utilization of health care in each age group, as well as preventive care related to these causes. For each condition, staff physicians reviewed established national guidelines and the medical literature and proposed indicators of quality for all phases of care or medical functions (screening, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up). We developed indicators to assess potential problems with the overuse and underuse of key processes. We primarily chose measures of processes as indicators, because they represent the activities that clinicians control most directly, because they do not generally require risk adjustment beyond the specification of eligibility, and because they are consistent with the structure of national guidelines.5,26

Four nine-member, multispecialty expert panels were convened to assess the validity of the indicators proposed by the staff, using the RAND–UCLA modified Delphi method.27 The members of the panels, nominated by the appropriate specialty societies, were diverse with respect to geography, practice setting, and sex. Indicators were rated on a 9-point scale (with 1 denoting not valid and 9 very valid). Only indicators with a median validity score of 7 or higher were included in the Quality Assessment Tools system. This method of selecting indicators is reliable28 and has been shown to have content, construct, and predictive validity in other applications.29-32

The criteria for the selection of conditions, reviews of the literature, the process followed by the panels, and the final indicators have been published elsewhere.33-36 (Further information on all the quality indicators used in this study is available at http://www.rand.org/health/mcglynn_appa.pdf or from the National Auxiliary Publications Service [NAPS].) Table 1Table 1Selected Quality-of-Care Indicators and Classifications Used in the Community Quality Index Study. provides a brief description and classifications for a sample of the indicators we used. The classifications enabled us to examine quality from the perspective of what is being done (type of care), why it is being done (function), how it is being delivered (mode), and the nature of the quality problem (underuse or overuse). Results are based on 439 indicators for 30 conditions and preventive care.

Health History Interview

We obtained selective information directly from respondents to augment information in their medical records. The health history took an average of 13 minutes to complete. The data obtained in this interview were used to refine the analysis of a respondent's eligibility for inclusion in the analysis or to augment the scoring for 22 of the 439 indicators. For example, we used reports of symptoms from participants with asthma to classify those with moderate-to-severe disease. We augmented scores for influenza or pneumococcal immunizations and screening for cancer on the basis of self-reports.

Abstracting of Charts

We developed computer-assisted abstraction software on a Visual Basic platform (version 6.0, Microsoft). The software allowed the manual abstraction of charts to be tailored to the specific record being reviewed and provided interactive checks of the quality of the data (for consistency and range), calculations (e.g., the determination of the presence of high blood pressure), and classifications (e.g., the determination of drug class) during abstraction.

Data for the study were abstracted by 20 trained registered nurses who had successfully abstracted a complex standard chart after a two-week training program. Charts were abstracted separately for each health care provider of each participant (i.e., at the dyad level). The average time required to abstract a chart for a participant–provider dyad was 50 minutes.

To assess interrater reliability, we re-abstracted charts from a randomly selected 4 percent sample of participants. Average reliability, with the use of the kappa statistic, ranged from substantial to almost perfect37 at three levels: the presence or absence of a given condition (κ=0.83), the participant's eligibility for the process represented by a given indicator (κ=0.76), and scoring of a given indicator (κ=0.80).

Statistical Analysis

We specified the combination of variables necessary to determine whether each participant was or was not eligible for the process specified by each indicator and whether each participant did or did not receive each process or some proportion of it. Each indicator was scored at one of three levels — that of the individual participant, that of the participant–provider dyad, or that of the episode — depending on the nature of the process being evaluated. The level at which an indicator was scored affected the number of times a participant was eligible for the specified process; the resulting number served as the denominator in the calculation of the aggregate score. For participant-level indicators, we gave the participant a score of “pass” if at least one of his or her health care providers had delivered the indicated care (e.g., influenza vaccination). For indicators scored at the level of the participant–provider dyad (e.g., smoking status noted in the chart), we scored every dyad separately, so the number of times the participant was counted in the denominator depended on the number of providers who saw the participant and could have performed the specified process. For indicators scored at the episode level (e.g., follow-up after hospitalization for an exacerbation of asthma), we scored every event rendering the participant eligible for the specified process and involving any of the participant's providers, so the number of eligibility events depended on the number of episodes that occurred.

In order to produce aggregate scores, we divided all instances in which recommended care was delivered by the number of times participants were eligible for indicators in the category. For example, Table 1 presents information about seven of the indicators for acute care; the number of times participants were eligible for these indicators would constitute the denominator for the acute care score. The results are presented as proportions, theoretically ranging in value from 0 to 100 percent. We used the bootstrap method to estimate standard errors directly for all the aggregate scores.38

Because everyone in the initial sample for the CQI study had participated in the CTS, we had a rich set of variables for assessing nonresponse. We used logistic-regression analysis to estimate the relations between individual characteristics (age, sex, race, educational level, income, self-reported level of use of physicians and hospitals, insurance status, and health status) and participation in the study. In general, participants tended to be older than nonparticipants (P<0.001) and were more likely than nonparticipants to be female (P<0.001) and white (P<0.001), with higher levels of education (P<0.001) and income (P<0.001). They were also more likely to have used health care services (P<0.001) and to be in other than excellent health (P=0.03). We used the coefficients from the regression equation to adjust the scores for nonresponse, and we weighted the data for the participants to be representative of the population from which they were drawn.

Results

Characteristics of the Participants

Table 2Table 2Characteristics of the 6712 Participants. summarizes the characteristics of the participants; these characteristics differ from population averages but parallel the profile of persons receiving medical care. For example, the average age of patients in the National Ambulatory Medical Care Survey39 is 44.7 years. Women have higher rates of visits than men (319.9 vs. 234.9 visits per 100 persons per year), and whites have higher rates of visits than blacks (293.2 vs. 210.7 visits per 100 persons per year).39 Participants were well educated. Forty-three percent had one or more of the chronic conditions we assessed, and 34 percent had one or more of the acute conditions. Preventive care was assessed for all participants; in addition, participants' care was assessed for 1.5 chronic or acute conditions, on average, for a total of 2.5 (range, 1 to 13). Participants were included in the overall denominator an average of 16 times (range, 2 to 304).

Analysis of Care Delivered

Table 3Table 3Adherence to Quality Indicators, Overall and According to Type of Care and Function., Table 4Table 4Adherence to Quality Indicators, According to Mode., and Table 5Table 5Adherence to Quality Indicators, According to Condition. show the number of indicators included in the aggregate score, the number of persons eligible for one or more processes within the category, the number of times participants in the sample were eligible for indicators, and the weighted mean proportion (and 95 percent confidence interval) of recommended processes that were delivered.

Overall, participants received 54.9 percent of recommended care (95 percent confidence interval, 54.3 to 55.5) (Table 3). This level of performance was similar in the areas of preventive care, acute care, and care for chronic conditions. The level of performance according to the particular medical function ranged from 52.2 percent (95 percent confidence interval, 51.3 to 53.2) for screening to 58.5 percent (95 percent confidence interval, 56.6 to 60.4) for follow-up care.

“Mode” refers to the mechanism of care delivery required for the provision of the indicated process. Analysis of performance in terms of mode may identify areas in which system-wide interventions could offer solutions to problems of quality, such as improved methods for ordering, processing, and communicating laboratory results. We found greater variation among modes than among functions in adherence to the processes we studied (Table 4). Care requiring an encounter or other intervention (e.g., the annual visit recommended for patients with hypertension) had the highest rates of adherence (73.4 percent [95 percent confidence interval, 71.5 to 75.3]), and processes involving counseling or education (e.g., advising smokers with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease to quit smoking) had the lowest rates of adherence (18.3 percent [95 percent confidence interval, 16.7 to 20.0]). All pairwise differences were statistically significant at P<0.001 except those between the prescribing of medication and care requiring an encounter or other intervention (P=0.02), physical examination and immunization (P=0.001), surgery and immunization (P=0.004), and surgery and physical examination (P=0.05). The difference between surgery and laboratory testing or radiography was not significant (P=0.39).

Problems with Quality of Care

We also classified indicators according to the problem with quality that was deemed most likely to occur, and we found greater problems with underuse (46.3 percent of participants did not receive recommended care [95 percent confidence interval, 45.8 to 46.8]) than with overuse (11.3 percent of participants received care that was not recommended and was potentially harmful [95 percent confidence interval, 10.2 to 12.4]).

Variations in Quality

Table 5 shows substantial variability in the quality-of-care scores for the 25 conditions for which at least 100 persons were eligible for analysis. Persons with senile cataracts received 78.7 percent of the recommended care (95 percent confidence interval, 73.3 to 84.2); persons with alcohol dependence received 10.5 percent of the recommended care (95 percent confidence interval, 6.8 to 14.6). The aggregate scores for individual conditions were generally not sensitive to the presence or absence of any single indicator of quality.

Discussion

Overall, participants received about half of the recommended processes involved in care. These deficits in care have important implications for the health of the American public. For example, only 24 percent of participants in our study who had diabetes received three or more glycosylated hemoglobin tests over a two-year period. This finding parallels the finding by Saaddine and colleagues that 29 percent of adults with diabetes who participated in the nationally representative Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System reported having their blood sugar tested during the previous year.18 This routine monitoring is essential to the assessment of the effectiveness of treatment, to ensuring appropriate responses to poor glycemic control, and to the identification of complications of the disease at an early stage so that serious consequences may be prevented. In the United Kingdom Prospective Diabetes Study, tight blood glucose control and biannual monitoring decreased the risk of microvascular complications by 25 percent.40

In our study, persons with hypertension received 64.7 percent of the recommended care (95 percent confidence interval, 62.6 to 66.7). We have previously demonstrated a link between blood-pressure control and adherence to process-related measures of quality of care for hypertension.41 Persons whose blood pressure is persistently above normal are at increased risk for heart disease, stroke, and death.42 Poor blood-pressure control contributes to more than 68,000 preventable deaths annually.43

Overall, 68.0 percent (95 percent confidence interval, 64.2 to 71.8) of the recommended care for coronary artery disease was received, but only 45 percent of persons presenting with a myocardial infarction received beta-blockers, which reduce the risk of death by 13 percent during the first week of treatment and by 23 percent over the long term.44 Only 61 percent of participants with a myocardial infarction who were appropriate candidates for aspirin therapy received aspirin, which has been shown in randomized trials to reduce the risk of death from vascular causes by 15 percent, to reduce the risk of nonfatal myocardial infarction by 30 percent, and to reduce the risk of nonfatal stroke by 40 percent.45

Deficits in processes involved in primary and secondary preventive care are also associated with preventable deaths. Among elderly participants, only 64 percent had received or been offered a pneumococcal vaccine; nearly 10,000 deaths from pneumonia could be prevented annually by appropriate vaccinations.43 About 38 percent of participants had been screened for colorectal cancer; annual fecal occult-blood tests could prevent about 9600 deaths annually.43

Nonresponse bias is a potential limitation of the study. Because the sample we analyzed included 37 percent of the eligible adults, the results are likely to be biased, but the direction of that bias is not clear. For example, because our participants were more likely to use the health care system than were eligible persons who did not participate in the study, our results may be biased toward an underestimation of deficits in quality related to underuse.

The study relied primarily on the review of medical records to score indicators, which may lead some to conclude that we have identified problems with documentation rather than quality. This issue has been examined in studies that compared process-based quality scores using standardized patients, vignettes, and abstraction of medical records46 and studies that compared standardized patients with audiotapes of encounters.47 Overall, the process scores among the four conditions studied were 5 percentage points lower with the use of medical records than with the use of vignettes and 10 percentage points lower with the use of medical records than with the use of standardized patients. About two thirds of the disagreement between data from standardized patients and data from audiotapes was attributable to reports by standardized patients that they received care processes that were not confirmed by audiotape. A related study reported a false positive rate of 6.4 percent in medical-record documentation, with the highest false positive rates found for physical examination and elements of the diagnostic process.48 Thus, our scores might have been as much as 10 percentage points higher if we had used a different method of obtaining data. We used the interview about the participant's health history to partially offset this effect. For example, among elderly participants, only 15 percent had a note in any chart indicating that an influenza vaccination had been received, but 85 percent reported having received one. In general, the inclusion of self-reported data improved scores.

Our results indicate that, on average, Americans receive about half of recommended medical care processes. Although this point estimate of the size of the quality problem may continue to be debated, the gap between what we know works and what is actually done is substantial enough to warrant attention. These deficits, which pose serious threats to the health and well-being of the U.S. public, persist despite initiatives by both the federal government and private health care delivery systems to improve care.

What can we do to break through this impasse? Given the complexity and diversity of the health care system, there will be no simple solution. A key component of any solution, however, is the routine availability of information on performance at all levels. Making such information available will require a major overhaul of our current health information systems, with a focus on automating the entry and retrieval of key data for clinical decision making and for the measurement and reporting of quality.49 Establishing a national base line for performance makes it possible to assess the effect of policy changes and to evaluate large-scale national, regional, state, or local efforts to improve quality.
