Patient Experience (PX)
Comprehensive services for monitoring and measuring patient experience
What is patient experience (PX)?
Simply defined, patient experience (PX) encompasses all interactions and impressions a patient has during and after receiving medical services or care.
This multifaceted concept goes beyond traditional measures of clinical effectiveness and safety. Understanding patient experience is vital for healthcare providers, as it directly influences patient satisfaction, treatment outcomes, and the overall reputation of medical organizations.
Measuring patient experience – our approach and its importance
In close collaboration with partner medical institutions, our team identifies project objectives and key points in advance to ensure efficient implementation and precise action. The general process of analyzing patient experience includes the following steps:
- Data collection
- Data analysis
- Reporting and result interpretation
- Planning and execution (Internal-Client)
- Continuous feedback
Data collection
We obtain direct feedback through mystery shopping evaluations, satisfaction questionnaires, and patient interviews. By analyzing information such as waiting times, appointment frequencies, or visit rescheduling rates, we gain a clear perspective on the efficiency and quality of services offered.
Data analysis
The collected data is segmented based on various criteria, such as the type of service offered, medical specialty, or clinic location. Over time, analyzing this data helps identify trends and patterns regarding the evolution of patient experience.
Reporting and result interpretation
Data is synthesized into comprehensive and easily understandable reports, highlighting both positive aspects and areas needing improvement. Subsequently, results are communicated to the medical team, facilitating the implementation of necessary changes.
Planning and execution (Internal-Client)
Based on feedback and conducted analyses, an action plan is developed to address identified aspects. Continuous monitoring strategies are implemented to evaluate the effectiveness of changes and make further adjustments if necessary.
Continuous feedback
The process of analyzing and improving patient experience is an ongoing cycle. Feedback is regularly collected, and the process is adjusted accordingly to ensure that patients’ needs and expectations are continually considered.
Ensure a seamless experience for patients, from the first phone call to post-treatment communication
Evaluating patient experience extends beyond clinical aspects, encompassing all touchpoints—from the first phone call or online visit to interactions with doctors, nurses, and medical staff post-treatment.
