This tool has proved suitable for measuring change in key performance indicators within a CQI process in diverse regional and remote Indigenous primary health care services.
For the purpose of this study, we defined improved performance of healthcare organisations to mean a demonstrated (as opposed to a self-reported) change in behaviour or work practice, or an improvement in process or clinical outcomes as demonstrated by a change in a performance indicator, which could be attributed to participating in a CoP activity or to accessing resources provided by the CoP.

Linear regression models were employed in order to evaluate the change in performance of selected indicators between the years 2003 and 2009.

It remains to be proven that such changes will yield improvements in these performance indicators and, ultimately, increased epidemiological impact.
Since data for one district is unavailable, we cannot report the regional change in performance for these two indicators.
