Assessing patient choice
Assessing patient choice
Interview Opportunity: MUCHE report "Assessing patient choice for public hospitals" is now available
This report answers the following two important questions.
- Do Australians want more choice between public hospitals for elective surgery?
- Would Australians exercise their right to choose a public hospital based on quality vs. convenience?
The report presents an analysis of 1,000 Australians surveyed, which sought information on respondent attitudes towards greater choice. The study also employed a discrete choice experiment (DCE) to estimate the relative value of seven hospital attributes representing convenience, GP and public opinion, and hospital quality.
