ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: High quality multidisciplinary care improves outcomes for rectal cancer (RC) but is not consistently provided. Our objective was to understand surgeons' barriers to RC care. METHODS: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 18 surgeons from 10 Michigan hospitals. Reports of hospital performance were shared. Interview transcripts were dual coded; data were reduced into emergent themes; and disagreements were resolved by discussion. RESULTS: Barriers to high quality care included negative attitudes, (resistance to change; not taking responsibility) lack of training/experience, complex care coordination, and financial disincentives. Facilitators included providers' positive attitudes and relationships, training/experience, surgeon leadership (development of protocols), patient-level systems of care (patient navigator), and higher-level support (cancer center reviews quality data). Themes were incorporated into an explanatory framework, with patient, provider, and systems domains. CONCLUSIONS: In this qualitative study of RC surgeons, we identified barriers to and facilitators of high-quality care. The framework developed will facilitate the design of quality improvement interventions.
