Abstract
This study used the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey data (2010-2018) to examine associations between diabetes patients’ satisfaction with their provider and ratings of healthcare received, diabetes care self-efficacy, and monitoring adherence among nonpregnant reproductive age women with diabetes. The sample included nonpregnant women of childbearing age (18-45) with diabetes mellitus (n = 767; weighted n = 1.3 million women). The results indicated that patients who reported that their usual care provider always asked/showed respect for medical, traditional, and alternative treatments that the person is happy with had 2.59 times greater odds (95% confidence interval [CI]:1.32-5.10) of giving high ratings of healthcare (8-10) compared to those whose provider did not show respect for treatments. Results also showed that patients who reported they were asked to decide between a choice of treatments had 1.76 greater odds (95% CI:1.03-3.01) of diabetes care monitoring adherence. Findings demonstrate the importance of patient-centered communication experiences in relation to diabetes care monitoring adherence. Implications of the findings for clinical encounters are discussed.
