  2. The Clinical Benefits of a Good Experience of Care • Good patient experience is correlated with more activated and engaged patients who are more adherent to advice and treatment plans. • Better care experiences lead to better outcomes. • Measuring patient experience is first step to practice level and system-wide improvements • Positive correlation between patient experience and preventive/disease management processes.

  3. Good Patient Experience: Financial Benefits! • Better patient experience lowers likelihood of lawsuit. • Measuring and improving patient experience enhances culture which lowers staff turnover and increases employee satisfaction. • Better experience leads to patient loyalty – good for practices and good for patient care. • Payers planning future tie financial incentives to patient experience.

Why Survey Patients on Experience of Care? • Surveying patients helps engage patients in delivery of their care • Places patient at center of healthcare encounter and re-emphasizes focus of provider to that center • It results in improved communication between patients and providers • Through public reporting, survey results provide basis for standards and comparison points to improve quality • Provides patient experience data to payers and consumers

  5. Why is DHA-MQF interested in Collecting & Reporting Patient Experience Data? • Law directs the Maine Quality Forum to evaluate and compare health care quality and provider performance • DHA-MQF is a convener together with MHMC and Maine Quality Counts for the Patient Centered Medical Home pilot, Medicare’s MAPCP demonstration as well as for Aligned Forces for Quality in Maine.
