Physician-patient transcripts with 4C coding analysis from the Contextualizing Care research program

This dataset consists of 405 transcriptions of audio recorded physician-patient interactions conducted at Veterans Health Administration (VHA) medical center primary care clinics. The recordings were collected utilizing concealed (except where indicated) audio recorders by patients. The protocol was approved by VHA Institutional Review Boards, and participating physicians and patients consented to participate in the study. The interactions were analyzed using Content Coding for Contextualization of Care ("4C"). An excel spreadsheet with the coding of the original audio of each transcript is included. All data has been de-identified. "xxx" indicates PHI was removed. "@@@" indicates transcriber did not understand audio. These transcripts are a resource to medical educators and research scientists seeking transcriptions of primary care encounters, as well as those interested in 4C coding in its early stages. Their acquisition was supported with research funding from the Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Health Administration, Office of Research and Development, Health Services Research & Development.
