Recognizing the gap between high-quality care and the care actually provided, health care providers across the country are under increasing institutional and payer pressures to move toward more high-quality care. This pressure is often leveraged through data feedback on provider performance; however, feedback has been shown to have only a variable effect on provider behavior. This study examines the cognitive behavioral factors that influence providers to participate in feedback interventions, and how feedback interventions should be implemented to encourage more provider engagement and participation.
