Objectives: To quantify the time spent by family physicians (FP) on tasks other than direct patient contact, to evaluate job satisfaction, to analyse the association between time spent on tasks and physician characteristics, the association between the number of tasks performed and physician characteristics and the association between time spent on tasks and job satisfaction. Design: Cross-sectional, using time-and-motion techniques. Two workdays were documented by direct observation. A significance level of 0.05 was adopted. Setting: Multicentric in 104 Portuguese family practices. Participants: A convenience sample of FP, with lists of over 1000 patients, teaching senior medical students and first-year family medicine residents in 2012, was obtained. Of the 217 FP invited to participate, 155 completed the study. Main outcomes measured: Time spent on tasks other than direct patient contact and on the performance of more than one task simultaneously, the number of direct patient contacts in the office, the number of indirect patient contacts, job satisfaction, demographic and professional characteristics associated with time spent on tasks and the number of different tasks performed, and the association between time spent on tasks and job satisfaction. Results: FP (n=155) spent a mean of 143.6 min/day (95% CI 135.2 to 152.0) performing tasks such as prescription refills, teaching, meetings, management and communication with other professionals (33.4% of their workload). FP with larger patient lists spent less time on these tasks (p=0.002). Older FP (p=0.021) and those with larger lists (p=0.011) performed fewer tasks. The mean job satisfaction score was 3.5 (out of 5). No association was found between job satisfaction and time spent on tasks. Conclusions: FP spent one-third of their workday in coordinating care, teaching and managing. Time devoted to these tasks decreases with increasing list size and physician age.

After May 3, 2024, this dataset and webpage will no longer be updated because hospitals are no longer required to report data on COVID-19 hospital admissions, and hospital capacity and occupancy data, to HHS through CDC’s National Healthcare Safety Network. Data voluntarily reported to NHSN after May 1, 2024, will be available starting May 10, 2024, at COVID Data Tracker Hospitalizations.
The following dataset provides state-aggregated data for hospital utilization in a timeseries format dating back to January 1, 2020. These are derived from reports with facility-level granularity across three main sources: (1) HHS TeleTracking, (2) reporting provided directly to HHS Protect by state/territorial health departments on behalf of their healthcare facilities and (3) National Healthcare Safety Network (before July 15).
The file will be updated regularly and provides the latest values reported by each facility within the last four days for all time. This allows for a more comprehensive picture of the hospital utilization within a state by ensuring a hospital is represented, even if they miss a single day of reporting.
No statistical analysis is applied to account for non-response and/or to account for missing data.
The below table displays one value for each field (i.e., column). Sometimes, reports for a given facility will be provided to more than one reporting source: HHS TeleTracking, NHSN, and HHS Protect. When this occurs, to ensure that there are not duplicate reports, prioritization is applied to the numbers for each facility.
On April 27, 2022 the following pediatric fields were added:
In 2020, in Europe, it was estimated that a physician's working time is roughly split 50-50 between treating patients and administrative tasks. However, it has been forecast with the implementation of AI technologies in healthcare, physicians would be able to spend ** percent more of their time on patients because the time burden of administrative tasks would be reduced.
This data description contains code (written in the R programming language), as well as processed data and results presented in a research article (see references). No raw data are provided and the data that are made available cannot be linked to study participants. The sample consists of 180 of 308 eligible participants (adult primary care patients in Sweden, living with chronic illness) who responded to a Swedish web-based questionnaire at two time points. Using a confirmatory factor analysis, we calculated latent factor scores for 9 constructs, based on 34 questionnaire items. In this dataset, we share the latent factor scores and the latent profile analysis results. Although raw data are not shared, we provide the questionnaire item, including response scales. The code that was used to produce the latent factor scores and latent profile analysis results is also provided.
The study was performed as part of a research project exploring how the use of eHealth services in chronic care influence interaction and collaboration between patients and healthcare. The purpose of the study was to identify subgroups of primary care patients who are similar with respect to their experiences of co-care, as measured by the DoCCA scale (von Thiele Schwarz, 2021). Baseline data were collected after patients had been introduced to an eHealth service that aimed to support them in their self-care and digital communication with healthcare; follow-up data were collected 7 months later. All patients were treated at the same primary care center, located in the Stockholm Region in Sweden.

The DATASET consists of two files: factorscores_docca.csv and latent-profile-analysis-results_docca.csv.
factorscores_docca.csv: This file contains 18 variables (columns) and 180 cases (rows). The variables represent latent factors (measured at two time points, T1 and T2) and the values are latent factor scores. The questionnaire data that were used to produce the latent factor scores consist of 20 items that measure experiences of collaboration with healthcare, based on the DoCCA scale. These items were included in the latent profile analysis. Additionally, latent factor scores reflecting perceived self-efficacy in self-care (6 items), satisfaction with healthcare (2 items), self-rated health (2 items), and perceived impact of e-health (4 items) were calculated. These items were used to make comparisons between profiles resulting from the latent profile analysis. Variable definitions are provided in a separate file (see below).
latent-profile-analysis-results_docca.csv: This file contains 14 variables (columns) and 180 cases (rows). The variables represent profile classifications (numbers and labels) and posterior classification probabilities for each of the identified profiles, 4 profiles at T1 and 5 profiles at T2. Transition probabilities (from T1 to T2 profiles) were not calculated due to lacking configural similarity of profiles at T1 and T2; hence no transition probabilities are provided.
The ASSOCIATED DOCUMENTATION consists of one file with variable definitions in English and Swedish, and four script files (written in the R programming language):

IntroductionPatient satisfaction with clinical services can have an effect on retention in HIV care and adherence to antiretroviral therapy. This study assessed patient satisfaction and its association with retention and viral suppression in Zambézia Province, Mozambique.MethodsMonthly exit interviews with persons living with HIV were completed from August 2017-January 2019 in 20 health facilities; clinical data were extracted from medical records. Regression analyses assessed the effect of satisfaction scores on retention and viral suppression, adjusting for age, sex, education, civil status, time on treatment, and site. Satisfaction scores were correlated with time spent at health facilities using generalized linear regression models.ResultsData from 4388 patients were analyzed. Overall median satisfaction score was 75% (IQR 53%-84%); median time spent at facilities (from arrival until completion of clinical services) was 2h54min (IQR 1h48min-4h). Overall satisfaction score was not associated with higher odds of retention or viral suppression, but association was seen between satisfaction regarding attention given to patient and respect and higher odds of viral suppression. Patient satisfaction was negatively associated with time spent in facility (Spearman’s correlation -0.63). Increased time spent at facility (from 1 to 3 hours) was not associated with lower retention in care (OR 0.72 [95%CI:0.52–1.01] and 0.83 [95%CI: 0.63–1.09] at 6- and 12-months, respectively), nor with a lower odds of viral suppression (OR 0.96 [95%CI: 0.71–1.32]).ConclusionsStrategies to reduce patient wait times at the health facility warrant continued prioritization. Differentiated models of care have helped considerably, but novel approaches are still needed to further decongest crowded health facilities. In addition, a good client-provider communication and positive attitude can improve patient satisfaction with health services, with an overall improved retention.
