Colleagues,
This from recent PHCRIS conference:

GP & PHC Research Conference Abstracts 2007
Effect of computerisation on quality of general practice care—a
comparison with quality indicators
I suspect that this study may fall foul of the "ecological fallacy" -
that is, the analysis is of aggregate measures of care (eg how many
HbA1cs are done on each GP's set of patients) but it is drawing
conclusions about the quality of individual patient care. Such analyses
are prone to potentially misleading mistakes
I was invited to contribute to the collection of BEACH data a few years
ago. I declined because they wanted to collect the data on paper. How
antediluvian!
