Development of a Measure to Assess Healthcare Providers’ Implementation of Patient‐Centered Care

Abstract

The PCC measure demonstrated acceptable psychometric properties. The low variance in responses, which is anticipated for instruments assessing fidelity of intervention implementation, accounts for the low reliability coefficients. Additional testing of the measure's psychometric properties in different groups of healthcare providers is warranted. The measure can be used to monitor healthcare providers' implementation of PCC in their usual practice.
