Development and Psychometric Analysis of a Patient-Reported Measure of Diagnostic Excellence for Emergency and Urgent Care Settings

Emergency and urgent care settings face challenges with routinely obtaining performance feedback related to diagnostic care. Patients and their care partners provide an important perspective on the diagnostic process and outcome of care in these settings. We sought to develop and test psychometric properties of Patient-Report to IMprove Diagnostic Excellence in Emergency Department settings (PRIME-ED), a measure of patient-reported diagnostic excellence in these care settings.
