Brief summary
The prevalence of multimorbid patients and complex care is increasing in France and elsewhere in the world. It concerns 60% of the over 65 years old. Comprehensive care, the involvement of the patient and his caregivers appear as the solutions for the management of these new care situations. The structures of multi-professional grouping, developing a coordinated exercise (GECO), appear as the privileged place to take care of these patients. These structures become the main place of exercise in France (improved working conditions for professionals, financial incentives, public policy, etc.); they have shown their ability to formulate patient care protocols, to produce coordinated exercise, to better involve the patient and caregivers in their care. The question of improving the quality of care arises. To date, there is no data on the subject apart from some evaluations mainly medico-economic. The patient's place in the evaluation showed his interest with the existence of a proven correlation between patient satisfaction in particular and his compliance and health outcomes.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Reliability of questionnaire | 1 day | The main objective of this phase of the protocol is to confirm on an independent sample the reliability of the primary care quality assessment questionnaire scales provided within the coordinated exercise groups from the point of view of patients in complex care situations, their caregivers and health professionals. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Concurrent validity of questionnaire | 1 day | Test the concurrent validity by comparison with EUROPEP questionnaire to verify that it does indeed measure the latent trait it is supposed to measure. The EUROPEP questionnaire is a 23-item validated and internationally standardized measure of patient evaluations of general practice care. |
| Anchor variables | 1 day | Test anchor variables that can be used later to assess sensitivity to change (comparison of means test if the candidate variable is qualitative and Spearman correlation if it is quantitative). |
| Standardized scoring guide | 1 day | To construct a standardized scoring guide if a satisfactory questionnaire is obtained. |
