The objective of this project is to improve the evaluation, management and health outcomes of patients with biliary tract disease. The specific aims are: to determine the rates of use, variation in rates of use and health outcomes associated with alternative diagnostic tests and therapeutic modalities; to identify appropriate indications for the use of alternative tests and treatments and optimal management strategies; to use this information to help practicing physicians improve their practice patterns and the health outcomes of their patients; to assess the impact of the interventions on physician practice and health outcomes; and to demonstrate the feasibility of strategies involving physicians in developing and implementing effective intervention programs. The project also will contribute to our understanding and use of health services research methodologies, including the usefulness of specific types of claims data in evaluating the outcomes of care, the relative advantages of disease specific versus generic measures of functional status and health outcome, the stability of patient preferences over time and across disease states, the generalizability of consensus statements across groups of physicians and the effectiveness of alternative community based interventions in changing physician behavior. This project represents a collaborative effort by research staff at the University of Pennsylvania and practicing physicians and professional societies in eastern Pennsylvania. Three cities in eastern Pennsylvania will serve as intensive intervention sites; one city will serve as a control site. The remainder of eastern pennsylvania will receive a less intensive intervention. Western Pennsylvania will not receive any intervention and will serve as a control. The project will have 7 stages: (1) synthesis of existing medical literature and information; (2) analysis of existing claims data; (3) collection of primary data on outcomes of care and on physician and patient preferences; (4) development of a normative model of optimal management strategies; (5) development of practice guidelines; (6) development of interventions to encourage use of these guidelines; and (7) use of primary and claims data measure the impact of the interventions on utilization and outcomes.

该项目的目标是改善对儿童的评价、管理和 胆道疾病患者的健康结局。 具体目标 是：确定使用率，使用率的变化和健康 与替代诊断测试和治疗相关的结果 方法;确定使用替代药物的适当适应症 测试和治疗以及最佳管理策略;使用这些 信息，以帮助执业医师改善他们的实践模式 和他们的病人的健康结果;评估的影响， 对医生实践和健康结果的干预;并证明 战略的可行性，涉及医生在发展和 实施有效的干预措施。 该项目还将有助于我们理解和利用健康 服务研究方法，包括具体类型的有用性 索赔数据在评估护理的结果，相对优势 功能状态和健康的疾病特异性与一般性措施 结果，患者偏好随时间和疾病的稳定性 国家，跨群体的共识声明的普遍性， 医生和替代社区的有效性 改变医生的行为。 该项目代表了研究人员的合作努力， 宾夕法尼亚大学和执业医师和专业 宾夕法尼亚州东部的社会。 宾夕法尼亚州东部的三个城市 将作为密集干预地点;一个城市将作为一个 对照部位。 宾夕法尼亚州东部的其余地区将得到较少的 强化干预。 宾夕法尼亚州西部将不会收到任何 干预并将作为对照。 该项目将分为7个阶段： (1)现有医学文献和信息的综合;（2）分析 现有索赔数据;（3）收集有关护理结果的原始数据 医生和病人的偏好;（4）制定规范 最优管理策略模型;（5）实践发展 （6）制定干预措施，鼓励使用这些 （7）使用原始数据和索赔数据来衡量 对利用和结果的干预。
