Through the questionnaire, we have asked the patients to assess the level
of competencies.
The questionnaire included 37 points grouped into six subfields/ fields of
quality of care:
"The safety of patient care" (eight points);
"Effectiveness and efficiency" (seven points);
"The principle of ethics and fairness" (eight points);
“Work methods and tools " (five points);
"Leadership and management" (four points), and;
"Continuing Professional Development" (five points).
Responses to each item of each subfield are ranked from one (physicians
= "beginners" have little or no knowledge / skills, or no previous
experience of competence described and need guidance or close
supervision) to five (physicians= "specialists / experts" are the primary
sources of knowledge and information in the field of medicine).
The general linear model was applied to assess the overall result
connecting the competence of family physicians, from the standpoint of
patients, their demographic characteristics and socio-economic.
The overall average age of survey participants was 50.5 ± 17.9 years - it was
similar in males and females (Table I).
The average value of total summary results for the instrument with 37 -
point was 118.0 ± 19.7 [ranging from 37 (minimum competency) to 185
(maximum competency)]. The average value of total summary results of
competence of family physicians from the standpoint of patients was higher
among younger participants (<45 years) than those older (≥ 45 years), (119
vs. 117, respectively, P = 0:04)
