先前的研究记录了不同患者特征在患者报告体验方面的差异。使用2,684家急诊医院2006-2007年出院的1,203,229名患者的9项患者体验指标，作者发现，调整后的医院评分衡量了平均患者的质量差异，具有很高的可靠性。作者还发现，医院“排名”(某一类型患者对医院的相对评分)因患者的健康状况和种族/民族/语言而有很大差异，而受教育程度和年龄的差异则不大(p<0.05)。
Prior research documents differences in patient-reported experiences by patient characteristics. Using nine measures of patient experience from 1,203,229 patients discharged in 2006-2007 from 2,684 acute and critical access hospitals, the authors find that adjusted hospital scores measure distinctions in quality for the average patient with high reliability. The authors also find that hospital "ranks" (the relative scores of hospitals for patients of a given type) vary substantially by patient health status and race/ethnicity/language, and moderately by patient education and age (p
