Abstract
Public disclosure of information is the release of information about the quality of care to all interested individuals and institutions to inform decisions. Public disclosure of healthcare performance can stimulate quality improvement activities through changes in institutional, professional, and public behavior. The purpose of this K2P Evidence Summary is to determine the influence of public disclosure and reporting of information on empowering consumers, improving quality standards, and informing decisions.
Description
K2P Evidence summaries use global research evidence to provide insight on public health priority topics that are ambiguous and have important uncertainty. This document informs policymakers and other stakeholders by synthesizing the best available evidence and presenting its relevance to local contexts. Evidence summaries do not provide recommendations but rather articulate evidence in a clear, objective and factual manner.
