The impact of hypertension follow-up management on the choices of signing up family doctor contract services: does socioeconomic status matter?

CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggested that regular hypertension follow-up management was associated with family doctor contract services and SES influenced this relationship. Primary health care should improve the contracting rate of family doctors by strengthening follow-up management of chronic diseases. Family doctors should focus on improving services quality and enriching the content of service packages especially for older adults with higher income and education level.PMID:38658816 | DOI:10.1186/s12875-024-02383-8
