Brief Summary:
The purpose of this research study is to assess patient and provider attitudes towards the role that patients should play in medical decision making and self-management We will examine the degree to which similarity of attitudes held by VA patients being treated for co-morbid diabetes mellitus and hypertension and by their primary care providers is a determinant of patient satisfaction patient adherence and adequacy of blood pressure and diabetic control
Detailed Description:
Previous work has shown that similarities in patients and providers beliefs about the role each should play in health care contexts are associated with greater patient satisfaction greater trust in the provider and greater treatment adherence Extending this work by examining the effect of patient-provider attitudinal similarity on patients diabetic and blood pressure control over an 18 month period is important because management of patients with co-morbid hypertension HTN and diabetes DM is a costly and clinically challenging task within the VA health system Self-report questionnaires will be used to assess VA providers beliefs about their own preferences for patient-provider role orientation in care whereas interviews will be used to measure veterans beliefs about their preferences for patient-provider role orientation in their care satisfaction with their care and self-reported treatment adherence Data regarding health services use prescription refills a measure of adherence and 18-month means of blood pressure and hemoglobin A1c will be collected from veterans medical records The study represents a critical step toward understanding how patient and provider attitudes toward care might be explicitly assessed and incorporated into the evidence-based health care delivery process to enhance the management of chronic illnesses and overall health among veterans
