Figure 3

Reliability of a single physician review of a patient record for detecting quality differences This figure presents the reliability (intraclass correlation coefficients) of a single implicit review for detecting differences in true quality across patients. At the top, the conditions with a more developed or high evidence base (diabetes and hypertension) are compared to those with a less developed or low evidence base (COPD and acute conditions). At the bottom, the reliability for each of four conditions is presented with the empirical 95% confidence interval limits. The conditions are hypertension (HTN), diabetes mellitus (DM), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and acute conditions.
