Providers must deliver a holistic patient experience that extends beyond clinical care interactions. The current state of the patient experience is poor and getting worse according to surveys, with 81% of consumers unsatisfied. While providers see patient experience as important, they overestimate their performance by over 20 percentage points compared to consumer ratings. Improving patient experience can drive operational efficiencies and reduce costs while helping organizations achieve their missions. Providers must take a holistic view of patient experience, empower their staff, and thoughtfully invest in technologies to enhance the experience.

Not surprisingly, the state
of patient experience is bad…
and likely to get worse before
it improves
For decades, the U.S. healthcare industry has been
based on a convoluted economic model, which has
inhibited competition and real service innovation -- and
consumers are frustrated.

There is a gap in perception between
providers and consumers on the
quality of experience currently
being provided
Providers underestimate the degree to which the
patient experience fails to meet consumer
expectations. This skewed perspective is creating a
lack of urgency among providers to fix the problem.
While providers are aware of patient dissatisfaction,
they have many competing and changing initiatives,
making it difficult to prioritize.

If providers are under-delivering on patient experience today, it will
only be harder with bigger and more complex operations
Sources: Knowledge at Wharton, “Hospital Consolidation: Can It Work This Time?”, Accessed 10/19/2015
ACSI Benchmarks for Healthcare Industry, Accessed 10/19/2015
Hospitals are buying other hospitals, physician practices, and ancillary
health care providers. These consolidations come in response to the
need to connect care networks, and enable a more cohesive approach
in managing patient experiences throughout their journey.
Hospital consolidation is rising as a result of The Affordable Care Act.

Invests primarily in process-focused

Leverages sophisticated clinical and

Metrics Rarely tracks metrics beyond basic

Evaluates patient experience success

Leverages HCAHPS yet has isolated
metrics for specific issues and

Organizational metrics are inclusive of
HCAHPS but also go beyond, looking at

Patient experience efforts happen in
pockets and are either not measured or
are assumed to be in HCAHPS scores

As we move into the back half of the call, we now want to talk about how you begin acting on this opportunity
Hopefully you’ve heard some new insights, or are now viewing some PX opportunities with a new lens
However, I’m sure there were a number of facts that aren’t new news or simply validated some hypotheses you’ve already had
The remainder of this call with be around “so what do you now go do about it?”, particularly as it relates to viewing and managing a holistic healthcare experience and not just a visit
PAUL
More clinics, telemedicine, using technology to free up physician time and not add to it. As well as be proactive in coordinating care on the patients behalf, particularly outside the walls of their own faculties.
PAUL
This is reflected by the fact that more two thirds view the patient experience beyond the walls of an individual facility. While we haven’t done this study over time yet, its our inclination that this number has been increasing, particularly as Jeff has highlighted so much angst around billing and scheduling. So much of the experience with a provider is driven by things outside the visit itself. Fortunately, we live in a country were bad healthcare episodes are rare. They happen, and we’re constant striving to eliminating them, but the majority of the population is often judging their provider’s performance based on scheduling, coordination, and billing. I think I read a recent study that cited only 20% of patients switch their PCPs in a year, and the majority of those are due to plan changes or moving. This means, most of our population is quite happy with the care our doctors provide. It’s the touchpoints outside that are the friction points.
PAUL
There are five aspects that are rather interrelated
(Read over. And small context. And dive in to each in the following slide.)
