The Relationships Between Hcahps Communication And Discharge Satisfaction Items And Hospital Readmissions, Fadi Hachem, Jeff Canar, Francis Fullam Ma, Andrew S. Gallan Phd, Samuel Hohmann, Catherine Johnson
Patient Experience Journal
The Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey has become a key metric used by organizations and patients to evaluate patient experience. Readmissions also continue to be a metric used to evaluate performance because of the added cost to both healthcare systems and patients. Both measures are also seen in programs such as Value Based Purchasing that have an effect on hospital reimbursements. Previous studies have demonstrated a relationship between patient perceptions and quality of care, and have found patients to be reliable evaluators of their care. While good communication and positive provider relationships have been related …

Improving The Patient Experience Through Nurse Leader Rounds, Judy C. Morton, Jodi Brekhus, Megan Reynolds, Anna Kay Dykes
Patient Experience Journal
While providing exceptional care experiences to patients is a priority for many organizations, creating and sustaining measureable success in this area remains a challenge for many. This article examines the impact of implementing nurse leader rounds on patient perception of care in the hospitals and emergency departments of a large healthcare system. Nurse leader rounds were implemented as a system-wide improvement practice at Providence Health & Services in 2012. Analysis of Press Ganey and Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey results indicates that implementation of nurse leader rounds is associated with statistically significant improvement in patient …

Creating And Sustaining A Culture Of Accountability For Patient Experience, Denise M. Kennedy Mba, Roshanak Didehban Mhs, Fache, John P. Fasolino Md
Patient Experience Journal
Improving the quality of the patient experience has become an imperative for healthcare organizations. Value-based payment models include patient perception data, and a negative experience can impact an organization’s finances. Sustainable improvement requires more than quick-fix cosmetic enhancements, ‘flavor-of-the-month’ service trainings, or bonuses for front-line staff. Organizations must actually improve the patient experience. Doing so requires a culture of accountability and a systematic framework for collecting and acting on patient perception data.
This article revisits Mayo Clinic Arizona's (MCA) "7-prong" model for improving service quality: (1) multiple data sources to drive improvement; (2) accountability; (3) service consultation and improvement tools; …
The Patient Experience Movement Moment, William Lehrman Phd, Geoffrey Silvera Mha, Jason A. Wolf Phd
The Patient Experience Movement Moment, William Lehrman Phd, Geoffrey Silvera Mha, Jason A. Wolf Phd
Patient Experience Journal
For years, the patient experience movement has continued to gain momentum. From a novel concept, there is an emerging consensus that the patient experience is a fundamental aspect of provider quality; one that complements established clinical process and outcome measures but is neither subsumed nor secondary to them. An increasing volume of research as encouraged by publications such as Patient Experience Journal show this to be true. As the expectation of a high-quality patient experience becomes the norm, these developments have brought us to what we call the patient experience movement moment and there is little doubt that the patient …
Customer Service Vs. Patient Care, Kathy Torpie
Customer Service Vs. Patient Care, Kathy Torpie
Patient Experience Journal
In a competitive market where financial resources are limited, many of the popular approaches to improving the patient experience involve large capital investments in such things as hotel style amenities and expensive technology. The author argues that marketing based on a model of the patient as a traditional ‘customer’ is ill conceived and contributes unnecessarily to the high cost of healthcare while lacking a true understanding of, or an appropriate response to, the most basic needs of hospitalized patients that lead to patient satisfaction.

A Gathering Place For Patient Experience Research: The Power Of Community, Jason A. Wolf Phd
A Gathering Place For Patient Experience Research: The Power Of Community, Jason A. Wolf Phd
Patient Experience Journal
In introducing Issue 2, we explore the power of community and its implications in shaping not only the purpose and intent of Patient Experience Journal, but of the patient experience movement itself. Community defined in this moment is simple, yet significant, the key being unity around common interest and its focus on ownership and participation. The idea of community bears great weight and has provided strong guidance and purpose for the work of experience excellence. It supports the goal of elevating the conversation, helps align the voices engaged and provides the space for listening, learning and impact.

In recent years, perceptions of performance and quality of healthcare organizations have begun to move beyond examining the provision of excellent clinical care, alone, and to consider and embrace the patient experience as an important indicator. There is a need to determine the extent to which clear and formal definitions exist, have common overarching themes, and/or have unique, but important constructs that should be considered more widely. In this article, we provide a 14-year synthesis of existing literature and other sources (2000-2014) that have been used to define patient experience. A total of 18 sources (articles or organizational websites) were …
