The<unk>  is a conceptual<unk>  that provides a framework for examining health services and evaluating quality of health care. According to the<unk> , information about quality of care can be drawn from three categories: “structure,” “process,” and “outcomes." Structure describes the context in which care is delivered, including hospital buildings, staff, financing, and equipment. Process denotes the transactions between patients and providers throughout the delivery of healthcare. Finally, outcomes refer to the effects of healthcare on the health status of patients and populations. Avedis<unk> , a physician and health services researcher at the University of Michigan, developed the original<unk>  in 1966. While there are other quality of care frameworks, including the World Health Organization (WHO)-Recommended Quality of Care Framework and the Bamako Initiative, the<unk>  continues to be the dominant paradigm for assessing the quality of health care.
