abstract: 'China passed a landmark health care reform in 2009, aimed at improving
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
health care for all citizens by strengthening the primary care system,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
largely through improvements to infrastructure. However, research has
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
shown that the work attitudes of primary care physicians (PCPs) can
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
greatly affect the stability of the overall workforce and the quality
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and delivery of health care. The purpose of this study is to investigate
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the relationship between reported work attitudes of PCPs and their
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
personal, work, and educational characteristics. A multi-stage, complex
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
sampling design was employed to select a sample of 434 PCPs practicing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in urban and rural primary care settings, and a survey questionnaire was
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
administered by researchers with sponsorship from the Ministry of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Health. Four outcome measures describing work attitudes were used, as
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
well as a number of personal-, work-, and practice-related factors.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Findings showed that although most PCPs considered their work as
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
important, a substantial number also reported large workloads, job
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
pressure, and turnover intentions. Findings suggest that policymakers
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
should focus on training and educational opportunities for PCPs and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
consider ways to ease workload pressures and improve salaries. These
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
policy improvements must accompany reform efforts that are already
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
underway before positive changes in reduced disparities and improved
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
health outcomes can be realized in China.'
