Lemley KB et al. – Although patient satisfaction is recognized as a quality indicator, few researchers have investigated patient satisfaction with NPs in rural family practice. A patient satisfaction survey (PSS) was distributed to a convenience sample of 213 young adult patients seen by five nurse practitioners in two rural family practice clinics. Survey results are analyzed and discussed within the framework of current CMS policy initiatives such as performance measures, pay for performance (P4P), transparency, and public reporting.
