Patient satisfaction is a function of several variables addressing reasons why it is important to use methods in which these different factors can be isolated and their importance analysed. Objective. In this project, two methods using this approach were used: the Quality from the Patient s Perspective and the Quality, Satisfaction, Performance models. The aim of the present study is to evaluate these two different methods with respect to application, strengths and weaknesses. Design. In the Quality from the Patient s Perspective model, the patient judges the different domains in two dimensions: perceived reality and subjective importance. The Quality, Satisfaction, Performance model uses a multivariate analysis to capture the patient s priorities. Four hundred and sixty forms for each model were distributed to a random sample of patients at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Karolinska Hospital. Main measures. The quality factors treatment by the nurse, participation, information, environment and accessibility were measured. Results. On both forms, medical care, treatment by the doctor and access to nursing treatment received high scores in perceived reality while accessibility and participation received low scores. Subjective importance measured directly and indirectly, respectively, in the two models showed high values for medical care and treatment by the doctor. Conclusion. The advantages of the Quality from the Patient s Perspective model are that it has a comprehensive and solid question bank. The Quality, Satisfaction, Performance model s advantage is its immediate usefulness and its clear graphic presentation. An integration and further development of these two approaches may prove useful. Keywords: patient satisfaction, patient questionnaire, quality from the patient s perspective, quality satisfaction performance find it easier to follow medical instructions thereby eliminating unnecessary medical visits. Continuous measurement of our clients opinions about products and services given by the medical community also provides a basis for quality assurance and different forms of benchmarking. There are, however, several problems concerning method- ological issues in these studies. In many standardized surveys a high satisfaction rate of 75 90% is often found [1]. Many authors have suggested that the high level of patient satisfaction found is due to measurement errors causing a different kind of bias, such as social desirability, reluctance In the past decade, quality issues in health care have gained increasing interest. Several tools have emerged to continuously monitor hospital care processes and to improve and control different areas of care. To date, most studies have focused on medical and economic criteria, but attempts have also been made to include the customer s or patient s judgement about the care that health services supply. Beside democratic and ethical reasons for assessing patient s views on health care, the findings from such studies can lead to better use of allocated resources. There are other important medical priorities such as that satisfied and well-informed patients Address reprint requests to J.

The lack of differentiation seen seems to indicate that patient satisfaction is not easily operationalized as a discrimination measure [1]. Patient satisfaction is a function of several variables (Figure 1) and it is therefore of great importance to use multivariate methods in which the different factors can be isolated. These validation problems have been approached by com- municating with patients to identify the issues that concern them most acutely and to determine how they perceive and interpret the services they receive. This is often done with focus groups or by one-on-one interviews with patients prior to measuring their satisfaction. In this way, questions that are important to patients can be elucidated and used in questionnaires. After identification of the patients concerns, these can be grouped into specific domains, such as medical, physical, emotional etc. [6 10]. In order to reduce the number of questions and to detect the structure in the relationships between the variables, the traditional factor analysis or the more general statistical methodology, structural equation mod- elling, may be used [8]. Another methodology problem in these studies concerns the relative importance of the different categories. It is often implied that it is those aspects of satisfaction with which patients are least satisfied that should be considered as priorities for improvement, i.e. patient satisfaction surveys seldom take into account patients priorities among different variables. Deciding what is a priority by choosing the domain with the lowest score also ignores the possibility of improving satisfaction generally. It is therefore important that the method used captures the patient s judgement of the different domains incorporated [11]. In this project, two methods using this approach have been used. In the Quality from the Patient s Perspective (QPP), the patient judges the different domains in two dimensions: perceived reality and subjective importance. The Quality, Satisfaction, Performance (QSP) model uses a multivariate analysis to capture the patient s priorities. The two models are described in more detail in the Materials and methods section. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the two different methods with respect to application, strengths and weaknesses. Materials and Methods The QPP model The QPP model is based on the premise that the quality of care can be understood by evaluating two aspects of care provision: the resource structure of the care organization and the patient s preferences. The resource structure of the care organization consists of the personnel and the qualities of the physical and administrative environment while the patient s preferences have a rational and a human aspect [10]. The QPP questionnaire was developed from the findings of a study using personal interviews [12]. In this instrument, each question is judged in two dimensions; perceived reality and subjective importance. The question bank in the QPP form originates from interviews where factors of importance for patient satisfaction with care have been identified [10]. In this study, 35 interviews were conducted consisting of open- ended and individually adapted follow-up questions covering the following themes: (i) Issues of importance with regard to the care the patient received; (ii) what the patient perceived as positive or negative in connection with the care; (iii) whether the patient felt that anything was lacking during the period of care; and (iv) whether the patient wished to change anything regarding the care. The interviews lasted approximately minutes and were tape-recorded and later transcribed verbatim for con- secutive analysis. Nine hundred indicators were sorted into 27 categories. The model was then operationalized using factor-analysis into a questionnaire consisting of 56 questions. The point of departure for measurement are these quality factors: (i) medical care; (ii) treatment by the doctor; (iii) treatment by the nurse; (iv) participation; (v) information; (vi) environment; and (vii) accessibility. We designed two main QPP forms for outpatient assessment: a long and a short form. In this study the long form was used. In the QPP approach, each question was judged in two ways: (i) perceived reality on a four-point scale (quite correct, almost correct, not quite correct, not correct at all, not applicable) and (ii) subjective importance on a four-point scale (of utmost importance, of great importance, of little importance, of no importance, not applicable). An example of a QPP question is given in Table

The formula gives an index that can vary between 8 and 16. High values indicate good patient satisfaction and low values suggest that action should be taken in order to improve satisfaction [12].

The QSP was analysed using the PLS method. Furthermore, a Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) was performed for both methods using STREAMS 1.7 (Structural Equation Modelling Made Simple) [15]. By use of the SEM technique, different features of the application of the quality factor were calculated [3]. Regression coefficients for two methods could be evaluated. The aspects brought up in the relationships between the quality factors and patient this study were: (i) confirmatory one-factor models for the satisfaction were estimated with standard errors taking quality factors were tested for goodness-of-fit and (ii) reliability estimates for the sum-index of variables for each quality factors into measurement errors in the 56 questions underlying the seven account. 260

The women s ratings of the different factors in the QPP and QSP questionnaires are presented in Table 5. In the QPP model, the results regarding perceived reality, subjective importance, personal quality index are presented using both the PLS and the SEM-analysis techniques. Treatment by the doctor and medical care received the highest scores in the perceived reality domain. Accessibility received the lowest score. The PQI was calculated according to the formula given above, and the scores ranged between 3.1 and The patients placed highest value on treatment by the doctor and medical care but accessibility and participation received low scores. In the QSP, the total PSI received a relatively high score of 81.8 out of a possible 100. Also in the QSP model treatment by the doctor and medical care received high scores while participation and accessibility received low scores. As previously, a calculation was performed for every factor studied in order to explain the variance in the PSI. This means that a high value indicates high importance on the PSI and vice versa. As a comparison, the regression coefficient was also calculated for the QSP data using the SEM-technique (Table 5). In Figure 3 the mean values of the factors are plotted on the y-axis and their impact on the PSI is shown on the x- axis as described above. The results can be illustrated in a coordinate system with the ranking value on the y-axis and its impact on the total PSI on the x-axis. Factors with high scores and large impact on the total PSI are placed in quadrant I, while factors with high scores but low impact are placed in quadrant IV. In the same way, factors with low scores but large impact are placed in quadrant II, while factors with low scores and low impact are placed in quadrant III. Treatment by the doctor and medical care were placed in quadrant I, which consequently means that these factors had both high impact and ranking. Also environment turned out to have a relatively high impact on the PSI while its ranking was moderate. Accessibility was ranked as the lowest factor but had a significant impact on the PSI. The three remaining factors displayed no significant impact on the PSI. The variance in the PSI explained by the seven quality factors was as high as 79%. This indicates that about 62% of the PSI variance was captured by the QSP questionnaire. The alternative, SEM method was a two-step procedure: (i) testing and adjusting a SEM model to the QSP data, and (ii) estimation of regression coefficients with the so called Max- imum Likelihood Method (MLM) taking measurement errors into account [16]. The results are presented in Table 5 and can be compared with the PLS regression coefficients. As seen from the figures, results were found to be similar to the PLS data. Conclusion Measuring patient satisfaction has become increasingly popular. It is important to discuss how these results can be integrated into the health care process in order to increase patient satisfaction. Early in the planning of a study it is therefore important to integrate in what context the results will be used. This should, if possible, include the headings: goals, relevant questions, interpretation and intervention. The aim of the present study was to perform an evaluation of the two different methods with respect to the proposed 261

Sixty-three per cent of the QSP and 54% of the QPP forms were returned indicating that the QPP form was somewhat more time consuming to complete, resulting in a higher dropout rate.

The QPP form also included the subjective judgement of importance. and from which suitable questions can be selected. This firststep procedure is important; it addresses the issue of validating the questionnaire and is not included in the QSP model. In the QPP model, a PQI is directly calculated on the basis of the patient s estimation of subjective importance and experienced reality. The properties of the formula resulting in this index are, however, inconsistent and the same index can be reached by means of several combinations of importance and reality factors, which makes interpretation difficult. The index gives no information on how patient satisfaction changes if quality improvement is made. As a contrast between these two methods, analysis of these additional data specific to the QPP was set as a secondary priority, mainly because this method showed a tendency towards estimating most subjective importance factors as very important or important. In summary, the advantages of the QPP model are that it has a comprehensive and solid question bank. This consists of 56 questions extracted by means of multiple regression analysis from 900 indicators. The QSP model s advantage is its immediate usefulness and its clear graphic presentation. The importance of the different factors are grounded in the patients values but can be extracted from the model. An integration and further development of these two approaches could prove useful. The QPP model has its basis in orally conducted interviews aimed at investigating what issues in health care are considered important by patients. This process has resulted in a question bank where questions are grouped into specific categories 9. Tarlov A, Ware JE, Greenfield S et al.
