Abstract: The project, entitled "Care Coordination Measure Development- Phase III", will develop a patient survey of the quality of care coordination for adults in primary care settings, i.e., the Care Coordination Quality Measure for Primary Care (CCQM-PC). The project will update the Care Coordination Measures Atlas (http://www.ahrq.gov/professionals/systems/long-termcare/ resources/coordination/atlas/index.html). In combination with primary research, the project will use the Atlas and prior work that identified gaps in the measurement of care coordination to develop and pilot test a rigorous and psychometrically sound patient assessment (from the perspective of patient and family) of the quality of care coordination for adults within primary care settings-the CCQM-PC. The survey will address key care coordination domains; be appropriate for research; will set the stage for the future development of measures for quality reporting, accountability, and payment purposes; and be consistent with Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS) ® principles. The instrument is to be developed, cognitively tested, revised and pilot tested. A stakeholder panel will provide input throughout the phases of the project. There are five explicit objectives for our analysis of the pilot-test data: • Evaluate the quality of the responses to the CCQM-PC survey (through item functioning analysis). • Determine how the items that ask for reports of patient experiences could be summarized into a smaller set of composite measures (through factor analysis). • Evaluate the measurement properties of the composite scales (assessment of reliability, validity, and variability of the measure). • Identify information (i.e., case mix adjusters) that should be used to adjust scores to ensure valid comparisons among primary care practices (PCPs). • Determine how CCQM-PC scores vary among practices that self-report processes of care that are more or less aligned with a medical home model. This study is being conducted by AHRQ through its contractor, American Institutes for Research (AIR), pursuant to AHRQ's statutory authority to conduct and support research on healthcare and on systems for the delivery of such care, including activities with respect to quality measurement and improvement. 42 U.S.C. 299a(a)(1) and (2).
