This survey is a follow-up on a first survey of physicians in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States. In this second survey in 2006, Germany and the Netherlands were included as well. The survey was carried out through mail, fax or telephone interviews. The study examined how primary care physicians perceive the quality of care in their countries and what factors they view as impeding or supporting high-quality, efficient, patient-centred care. The survey explored the following: - Physicians’ overall satisfaction with the health care system
- Concerns about patients’ access to care
- Responsiveness to patients’ needs for after-hours care
- Views on reducing medical errors in practice
- Support for patient involvement in decision-making
- Involvement in pay-for-performance programs
- Use of interdisciplinary teams and nurse coordinators
- Experience with EMR to address the needs of specific patient populations.
