This study was undertaken to describe patient and physician sociodemographic characteristics that might be associated with the patient's perception of the quality of care rendered by his or her physician. A random telephone survey of 685 adult Kentucky residents showed that self-health assessment correlated positively, while patient education correlated negatively, with perceived quality of care. Perceived physician origin was related to the respondent's perceptions of quality of care, with native-born physicians perceived as supplying higher quality of care than their foreign-born counterparts. Cultural and communication issues might explain differences in perceived quality of care. |
