• Under the Affordable Healthcare
Act the federal government deducts
2% of certain Medicare payments to
many hospitals each year.
• Hospitals can earn none, some or
all of that money back based on
performance in four areas, including
patient experience. Hospitals that
perform particularly well can earn
more than the 2% back.

I question everything.

• How come there aren’t B batteries?
• Why is it that night falls but day breaks?
• If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular?
• Why does Hawaii have interstate highways?
• What was the best thing before sliced bread?
• Why do hot dogs come 10 to a package and HD buns only 8?
• Why do black olives come in cans & green olives come in jars?
• If nothing sticks to Teflon, how do they make it stick to the pan?

If you agree with
100% of what I say,
I have failed.

The positive ‘patience’
experience is how you
build relationships.

We’re all consumers, it doesn’t
matter if we’re a consumer of
health care or buying a car or an
appliance.
Building Relationships
is how you create a positive patient experience.

If health care doesn’t focus on the
experience and the kind of care
they provide, you’re not going to be
able to compete in the marketplace
today.
The patient experience is
how you build relationships.

Patients should not be
going home just
feeling comfortable
but with an
experience that was
successful.

3 Things

Three Critical AHAs
I. What am I doing differently tomorrow?
II. What is the value to my Patient?
III.What is the benefit to my Patients?

WOW
WIiFM©2020 James Feldman All rights reserved.

…if no WIiFM your Patients switch off.

You don't know everything. You can't forecast reactions.
Narrow your gaps in knowledge instead of widening it.

Patients may not always
be RIGHT.
However, there is
no percentage in
telling them
they are WRONG.

Don’t do something
permanently stupid
just because you’re
temporarily
Upset.
Aha

It’s not
What You Think but
How You Think.

Patients do not weigh their overall experience
of you. It’s the last occasion, good or bad,
that affects their opinion of you.
I WANT IT ALL!
I WANT IT NOW!

Truly great
Patient service
affects
every individual,
every process,
every level,
of
every organization.

Your Patients always want to talk about their most
favorite topic: themselves,
wants or needs.

Patient Service is just
like
D-A-T-I-N-G.
Basically, when you
come into hospital,
anybody who says
they’re not distressed
or they’re not in a –
not so much a panic
mode, but their mood
is not upbeat … so
sometimes it will get
to a point where you
require some
emotional support.

Patients if given the choice go
to care takers they really trust.
And they share it with other
people they like.
Who also really like it.
And share it with other people.
Who also…

FEATURE
is a characteristic of services.
BENEFIT
is what the feature does for your Patient.

If given the choice
Patients seek
features…they buy

It’s all about is about how you Determine to build relationships.

Influencing Positive
Experiences
• Staff frequently checking on patients
• Enabling good handovers with
effective information, thus removing
the need for patients to retell their
story to every new staff member.
• Doctors and nurses talking outside the
patient’s room was seen as both a
positive and a negative thing. Some
thought it indicated seamless and
‘excellent’ care, giving patients privacy
when they needed it

WIIFM
Overall, participants
were comfortable
with doctors and nurses
making decisions on
their behalf, as long as
they explained the
situation and their
options clearly.

It’s about ANSWERS
which determines your
Patients’ ATTITUDE.

ATTITUDE is everything.
67% of all Patients seek other resources
because of a poor attitude,
or indifference from
health care employees.

The most
important skill to
become
Patient and
employee driven
is to
LISTEN.

Listen
the Patient
may be talking.
Don’t talk,
the Patient
may be listening.

It’s about how you
TREAT each Patient
uniquely.
Fit their needs to a
"T”.

Their patience
is about
INNOVATIVE
solutions that
identifies their
Problems.

Creativity is
thinking up
new things.
Innovation is
doing
new things.

It’s about how
you NURTURE
your
employees so
they take care
of your
Patients.

There is one objective and the cure…to
GUARANTEE you continue to have
Patients in the future.

“We know that companies with a strong culture and a higher purpose perform
better in the long run. As we continue to grow, we strive to ensure that our
culture remains alive and well.”
“We are not an average company,
our service is not average,
and we don’t want our people to be average.
We expect every employee to deliver WOW.”

“Above all, Employees will be provided the same
concern, respect, and caring attitude within the
organization that they are expected to share
externally with every Southwest Patient.”
Create memorable connections.
WOW our Patients.

(2016) A passenger suffered a
concussion, a broken nose, injuries
to his sinuses requiring surgery and
lost two front teeth, and long term
health consequences after being
forcibly removed from his seat.

Look at each

viewpoint.

Do you stand out?

Question 1
How will we WOW them?
And be different?
Question 2
What do our
Patients need?
Question 3
Why should our
Patients continue
the relationship?
Ask yourself

everything starts with their
challenges, needs, prejudices,
and concerns.

stay in your sweet spot, where the things
you understand better than anyone else
intersect with the things your
Patients’ really care about.

one-off presentations
don’t add up to a long-term
placement strategy.

d-a-t-i-n-g your Patient is
a marathon not a one-time effort.

if you don’t care about this stuff,
why should anybody else?

you’ll know if you’re being lazy.
don’t be lazy.

call your company as if
you were the unhappy Patient.

Beware of
Distractions…
disguised as
Opportunities.
