Le recueil en routine de données de santé perçue à l’ère du paiement à la qualité : préconisations de la Commission épidémiologie et santé publique de la SFNDT

International audience; In France, the method of financing is mainly based on the quantity of care produced. The fixed-rate financing of patients with chronic kidney disease at stage IV or V introduces the notion of payment to quality. Part of the quality assessment will focus on the patients' feelings about their care. The objective of this paper is to assess these indicators used in nephrology, markers in their own right of the quality of care. The patients reported outcomes measures considering the impact of illness or care and the Patient Reported Experience Measures considering their perception of their experience with the health care system or care pathway, are broader than quality of life. These PROs are measured using standardized and validated questionnaires, generic or specific. The Standardised Outcomes in Nephrology initiative has shown that PROs, too often neglected in favor of biological criteria, are instead favored by patients. In the context of a broad deployment of monitoring the quality of life for the purpose of evaluation of care, outside research protocol, the Commission recommends one of the following 2 tools: EuroQol 5D and 12-Item Short Form Health Survey, a compromise between feasibility and relevance and e-SATIS given its great use in health facilities, with an annual follow-up.
