Current challengesneeded change but…
1. Payment restructuring (ACA, from fee-for-service to restricted compensation based on outcomes)
• Bundled payments for services
• Payment for episode of care (specific condition for a specific period)
• Physician Quality Reporting System and reimbursement based on metrics
• Shared savings programs
2. Policy changes
• ICD 10 the use of the International Classification of Diseases
• Meaningful Use incentive program (MU2) for electronic health records (EHRs)
• Accountability Act (HIPAA)
• Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS) (reporting on 138 outcome quality measures)

Current challenges
3. Time for seeing patients
• Finding time for patients despite escalating administrative noise
4. Rising cost to implement changes
• Implementation of e-medical records and training of staff
5. Changing requirements for recertification
6. Oversight by multiple agencies: insurance companies, policy makers, government agencies, patients
7. Health information revolution
8. Emphasis on disease rather than on prevention

Quality of care (Institute of Medicine)

Effective
Based on scientific knowledge to all who could benefit and refraining from providing services to those not likely to benefit (avoiding underuse and overuse).
Patient-centered
Respectful of and responsive to individual patient preferences, needs, and values and ensuring that patient values guide all clinical decisions.
Timely
Reducing waits and sometimes harmful delays for both those who receive and those who give care.
Efficient
Avoiding waste, in particular waste of equipment, supplies, ideas, and energy.
Equitable
Care that does not vary in quality because of personal characteristics, such as gender, ethnicity, geographic location, and socioeconomic status.

Burnout and Satisfaction
• 45.8% of physicians reported at least 1 symptom of burnout
• Highest rates among physicians at the front line (family medicine, general internal medicine, and emergency medicine)
• Compared with working US adults, physicians were more likely to:
• Have symptoms of burnout
• Be dissatisfied with work-life balance (40.2% vs 23.2%) (P < .001 for both)
![Page 40: Quality of Care and Patient Satisfaction Today](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56813a45550346895da23557/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Burnout and Satisfaction
• Highest level of education also related to burnout in multivariate analysis adjusted for age, sex, relationship status, and hours worked per week
• Compared with high school graduates, MD or DO degree were at increased risk for burnout (odds ratio [OR], 1.36; P < .001)
• Whereas individuals with a bachelor's degree (OR, 0.80; P = .048), master's degree (OR, 0.71;P = .01), or professional or doctoral degree other than an MD or DO degree (OR, 0.64; P = .04) were at lower risk for burnout.

Summary and Conclusions
Quality medical care must be safe, effective, timely, efficient, equitable and patient centered
The US healthcare system is undergoing needed major structural changes that deeply impact quality of care, patients perceptions and physician satisfaction
Patient centeredness is a key component of quality of care
Physician satisfaction/wellbeing should also be considered as a marker of quality of care
