We tested two hypotheses: a) quality of care is predicted by physician and facility characteristics and b) health status is predicted by quality of care. Younger, female physicians provide a higher quality of care—as well as those that have had recent continuing medical education (CME) in chronic disease or health behaviors. Higher quality was associated with better health outcomes.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOquality of carehealth care deliverynon-communicable diseaseshealth policyJournal ArticleWorld Bank10.1596/23148
