ABSTRACT
Objective Based on the affective events theory,explore the influence of the cmerged county-based medical community reform on the conscientiousness of physicians in township health centers and its internal mechanism,and provide references for improving their conscientiousness.Methods Self-designed questionnaire was used to conduct the survey,including the basic personal information,physician's conscientiousness,county-based integrated service delivery networks and efficacy emotional feeling.Select physicians from 23 township health centers of 2 merged county-based medical community in Hubei Province as the investigation objects and use structural equation model to analyze the the influence of compact county-based integrated service delivery networks on the conscientiousness.Results The county-based integrated service delivery networks efficacy had a positive impact on the emotional feeling.Emotional feeling had a positive impact on the conscientiousness.The county-based integrated service delivery networks efficacy on the was conscientiousness 0.044,while the indirect effect was 0.236,and the ratio of indirect effect to the total effect was 84.3%.Conclusions The emotional feeling plays a fully mediating role between county-based integrated service delivery networks efficacy and physician's conscientiousness of township health centers.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the influencing factors of doctors′ compliance intention towards clinical pathways at diagnosis-related groups(DRG) pilot hospitals, as a reference in advancing the development of critical pathways management and the transition of DRG payment methods from pilot exploration to actual payment.Methods:With purposive sampling method, an online questionnaire survey was conducted on doctors at 4 tertiary hospitals involved in the DRG pilot in Wuhan from December 2020 to February 2021. The questionnaire covered doctors′ basic personal information, identification degree of three dimensions based on the theory of planned behavior, as well as their past compliance behavior and compliance willingness of clinical pathways. The influence of different factors on doctors′ clinical path compliance intention was analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and the ordered multi-class logistic regression analysis was used in multivariate analysis.Results:335 valid questionnaires were obtained, of which 205(61.2%) doctors had high willingness to follow clinical pathways. Such factors as degree of attention to peer doctors′ attitudes towards clinical pathways( OR=16.44), sufficient understanding of the documents( OR=14.91), the adaptation between information systems and clinical pathways( OR=12.54), sufficient learning resources( OR=9.42), and high enrollment rate of their patients in charge in the past six months( OR=5.77), could positively affect the doctors′ willingness to follow clinical pathways. The high enrollment completion rate of patients cared by doctors in the past six months( OR=0.09) and the high mutation rate caused by medical prescriptions( OR=0.00) negatively affected doctors′ compliance intention towards clinical pathway. Conclusions:Most doctors at DRG pilot hospitals had high willingness to comply with the clinical pathways. The main factors affecting their willingness to follow the clinical pathway include, previous relevant work experience, the attitude of peer doctors, and support resources. To increase doctors′ compliance willingness towards clinical pathway, it is necessary to speed up the DRG payment process, adopt a flexible management model, enhance the sense of participation of doctors, and ensure adequate support vesources.
