Patient Satisfaction with Healthcare Systems: Do Different Funding Models Lead to Different Results?

Healthcare policy is a key issue in the imminent U.S. presidential election. Funding of healthcare continues to be a major global challenge as the populations of developed countries age and patients become more aware of healthcare choices, and the global financial crisis is adding increased strain on both private and public healthcare funding. Against this backdrop, a new study from Picis , the leading provider of information systems for the emergency department, operation rooms and intensive care units of hospitals, reveals perceptions of whether different healthcare funding models lead to significantly different levels of patient satisfaction. The Picis poll sought the views of more than 4,000 people across the United States, the United Kingdom, France and Spain.
