Correlations across quality-related PCP practice style measures.

# ED visits # Avoidable hosp. Pr(flu vaccine = 1) Pr(diabetes care = 1)
# ED visits 1
# Avoidable hospitalizations 0.280 (0.272, 0.281) 1
Pr(flu vaccine = 1) −0.027 (−0.032, −0.022) −0.011 (−0.016, −0.006) 1
Pr(recommend diabetes care = 1) −0.025 (−0.030, −0.020) −0.020 (−0.025, −0.015) 0.075 (0.070, 0.080) 1

Notes: This table presents correlations across PCP fixed effects forour four quality ofcare measures. Using our analysis sample, we estimate these fixed effects from a health care production function that includes patient fixed effects and time-varying patient characteristics (i.e., Medicare enrollment information and chronic conditions). We report estimates for the correlations across the quality of care practice styles along with their 95% confidence intervals.
