  1. The estimates of the mean patient perceived quality, prescription rates of antibiotics and benzodiazepine derivatives per ownership type are calculated by a linear mixed model for repeated yearly observations (for the 197 PCCs with data during 2011–2013). Adjustments were made selectively for year, location, number of listed citizens (in 100), Care Need Index, proportion of gender group listed and proportion of age groups listed at PCC (0–19 years, 20–64 years and 65+). * indicates the interaction of two effects
