Relationship between patient-perceived quality of primary care and self-reported hospital utilisation in China: A cross-sectional study

CONCLUSION: Enhanced patient-perceived quality of primary care in China is associated with a reduction in self-reported overall hospital utilisation, including outpatient visits and hospital admissions. However, better continuity of care may be associated with increased ED visits. Further research is warranted for precise insights and validation of these findings.PMID:38407121 | PMC:PMC10898267 | DOI:10.1080/13814788.2024.2308740
