An examination of the relationships between physicians' clinical and hospital-utilization performance

To examine the relationships between measures of attending physician teams' clinical and utilization performance, inpatient hospital audits were conducted in 22 Maryland and western Pennsylvania nonfederal short-term hospitals. A total of 6,980 medical records were abstracted from eight diagnos...

description To examine the relationships between measures of attending physician teams' clinical and utilization performance, inpatient hospital audits were conducted in 22 Maryland and western Pennsylvania nonfederal short-term hospitals. A total of 6,980 medical records were abstracted from eight diagnostic categories using the Payne and JCAH PEP medical audit procedures. The results indicate weak statistical associations between the two medical care evaluation audits; between clinical performance and utilization performance, as measured by appropriateness of admissions and length of stay; and between three utilization measures. Based on these findings, it does not appear valid to use performance in one area to evaluate performance in the other in order to measure or evaluate and ultimately improve physicians; clinical or utilization performance.
