مستخلص: Objective: To determine the association between patient assessment of healthcare delivery and publicly reported asthma performance measures. Methods: We identified individuals 5-50 years old who had asthma quality measures reported to the Minnesota Community Measurement© (MCM©) by their clinic and sent them a postal survey which included within it the Patient Assessment of Chronic Illness care (PACIC), a validated measure of patient perception of the quality of healthcare delivery. We performed a multivariable analysis to examine the association between PACIC scores and achievement of asthma care quality measures. Results: The response rate for the ACS was 102/367 (28%); a non-response bias analysis revealed no differences between responders and non-responders for age, gender and asthma control. Most responders (73%) reported taking asthma medications daily and most (71%) had poorly controlled asthma. The PACIC score was not associated with any of the asthma quality measures based on the data reported to MCM© by the clinic. A higher PACIC score was, however, associated with having an asthma action plan based on patient-reported data in the ACS ( p < 0.0001) but not with patient-reported asthma control or emergency department/hospitalizations for asthma. Conclusions: Patient assessment of high quality asthma care delivery was associated with patient self-report of having an asthma action plan but was not associated with any of the publicly reported asthma performance measures.
