Visit Duration for Outpatient Physician Office Visits Among Patients With Cancer
Conclusion:
Higher use of performance-based payment
mechanisms and capitated arrangements are associated with a decrease in
the amount
of time physicians spend with their patients
with cancer. It is unclear whether shorter visit times impact the
quality of
medical care provided or whether physicians in
these settings have become more proficient in caring for their patients.
