abstract: 'This article describes the use of action research as an information base
|
||||
|
||||
for policy formulation by a collaborative partnership in Spokane,
|
||||
|
||||
Washington. Health and social service providers recognized access to
|
||||
|
||||
care by uninsured persons as a major community issue. Little was known
|
||||
|
||||
from the consumers perspective about factors limiting access. No
|
||||
|
||||
benchmarks existed against which to measure progress. Investigators
|
||||
|
||||
collected mailed surveys from 475 residents of six Spokane neighborhoods
|
||||
|
||||
and 97 persons participated in 12 focus group sessions. Income,
|
||||
|
||||
education, and ethnicity were primary factors affecting perceptions of
|
||||
|
||||
degree to which medical, dental, and mental health needs were being met.
|
||||
|
||||
Many residents were unable to obtain needed health care; low-cost dental
|
||||
|
||||
and mental health services were named as their highest priorities.
|
||||
|
||||
Quality of care, relationships with providers, immediacy of access, and
|
||||
|
||||
cost were important concerns. Major barriers were cost, length of time
|
||||
|
||||
before one could get an appointment, lack of comfort with providers, and
|
||||
|
||||
having to miss work for appointments. Consumer input is critical in
|
||||
|
||||
understanding local issues in health care. Action research that combines
|
||||
|
||||
qualitative and quantitative data enhanced practice/policy decisions
|
||||
|
||||
through assuring ownership of the research and immediate use of findings
|
||||
|
||||
by involved agencies.'
