It is no surprise that improving your patient experience ranks among the top priorities of healthcare leaders, so we’ve provided free patient experience resources. These help reinforce that your patient experience is not only important to the bottom line, but helps to facilitate positive outcomes and generate word of mouth referrals – which is one of the most effective ways to attract new patients. However, improving the patient experience is easier said than done. How do you dig deeper into satisfaction scores to understand the “why” behind the data? How can you influence patient perceptions and deliver consistently on promises? That’s where we come in.
We’re known for our ability to get to the heart of what matters most to your patients. Whether issues are related to operations, communications, or health care itself, our discoveries provide a compelling foundation for change and action planning. These patient experience resources will provide tools you can use to develop the necessary insights to accelerate organizational performance. Our Patient Experience Mapping framework reviews the total patient experience, including expectations prior to the first visit and after the last visit. We uncover functional and emotional needs, touchpoints, and identify patient experience stewards for a holistic view. Using rich stories in the voice of the customer, we build empathy and consensus among your clinic team members.
This isn’t a new thing for us. In fact, we have worked with some of the most well-known healthcare providers in the country. Our clients keep coming back to us because we not only provide them with a game plan for growth, but serve as a trusted partner. We bring to the table best practices from across the country, and experts who have been in your shoes. In fact, many of our team members have held leadership positions at top ranked hospitals and healthcare systems.
