The objective of this study was to assess the current utilization and perceptions of the prescription drug monitoring program among emergency medicine providers in Florida.
Figure 1 shows our conceptual model of the causal process leading from upstream determinants of health care utilization to perceptions of access to care, and ultimately to actual health service utilization.
Survey data (response rate 86.2%) and administrative databases were used to assess diabetes severity, glycemic control, quality of life, microvascular and macrovascular risks and complications, preventive care, utilization, and perceptions of diabetes.
In light of the many gaps in knowledge regarding the extent of utilization and perceptions of endoscopic screening and surveillance, the CE of various strategies, and the patient and provider factors that shape decisions to adopt current and future practice guidelines, we propose to conduct a study with the following specific aims.
A survey assessing the utilization and perception of Florida's prescription drug monitoring program was distributed to emergency medicine providers in Florida over a 5 week period.
To evaluate the impact of individualized, developmentally supportive family-centered care on infant physiological variables, growth, behavioral stress cues, return to sleep state, medical and developmental progress, complications, resource utilization, parental perception of the neonatal intensive-care unit experience, and overall parental satisfaction.
These range from expected differences in genes involved in reproductive physiology to those involved in amino acid utilization, sensory perception, immune response, and growth control.
A questionnaire was developed including information on sociodemographic characteristics, health status, public health services knowledge and utilization and perception of difficulties in health services access.
Predisposing factors (e.g., gender, race/ethnicity, and education) and need factors (e.g., poor health status and chronic diseases) are not significant predictors of specialty care utilization once perception of need for specialty care is controlled.
