Eligible studies published in English or Chinese were obtained through online searches of PubMed and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. A descriptive reporting approach was used due to variations in the measurements and administration methods between studies. A total of 471 articles were identified and of these articles; of those 91 full-text articles were included in the final analysis. Most studies used author-developed measurements with five-point Likert response scales and many used the Chinese translations of validated tools from other countries. Most instruments assessed the physical environment, medical equipment, clinical competency and convenience aspects of PHC using a satisfaction rating instead of care experience reporting. Many studies did not report the sampling approach, patient recruitment procedures and survey administration modes. The patient exit survey was the most commonly used survey implementation method. The focus on the structural dimensions of PHC, inconsistent wording, categories of response options that use satisfaction rating, and unclear survey implementation processes are common problems in patient evaluation studies of PHC in China. Further studies are necessary to identify population preferences of PHC in China in order to move towards developing Chinese value-based patient experience measurements.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph16060926","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,15]],"date-time":"2019-03-15T04:12:09Z","timestamp":1552623129000},"page":"926","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Evaluating Primary Health Care Performance from User Perspective in China: Review of Survey Instruments and Implementation Issues"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Wenhua","family":"Wang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Family Medicine, McGill University, Montreal, QC H3T 1M5, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jeannie","family":"Haggerty","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Family Medicine, McGill University, Montreal, QC H3T 1M5, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ekaterina (Katya)","family":"Loban","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Family Medicine, McGill University, Montreal, QC H3T 1M5, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xiaoyun","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"China Center for Health Development Studies, Peking University, Beijing 100191, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2584","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(17)33109-4","article-title":"The primary health-care system in China","volume":"390","author":"Li","year":"2017","journal-title":"Lancet"},{"key":"ref_2","unstructured":"Meng, Q., Yang, H., Chen, W., Sun, Q., and Liu, X.
