The objective of this study was to examine factors impacting physicians' quality of care. This study used the Center for Studying Health System Change's 2008 Health Tracking Physician Survey data set consisting of 4720 physicians belonging to the American Medical Association. Regression analysis indicated that time with patient, career satisfaction, use of information technology for patient information, and income had a significant, positive impact on perception of high-quality care by physicians. Threat of malpractice lawsuits, percent revenue from Medicaid, and type of practice had a significant negative impact on perception of high-quality care by physicians. Among all the variables examined in our study, time with patient had the greatest impact on perception of high-quality care by physicians.
本研究的目的是考察影响医生医疗质量的因素。本研究使用了医疗体系变革研究中心2008年的健康追踪医生调查数据集，该数据集包含4720名美国医学协会的医生。回归分析表明，与患者相处的时间、职业满意度、利用信息技术获取患者信息以及收入对医生对高质量医疗的认知有显著的积极影响。医疗事故诉讼的威胁、医疗补助收入的百分比以及执业类型对医生对高质量医疗的认知有显著的负面影响。在我们研究中考察的所有变量中，与患者相处的时间对医生对高质量医疗的认知影响最大。
