What's Inside

Based on patient feedback captured across diverse hospital-based care settings from January through September 2020, this report offers insights that provider organizations can use to meet their patients' needs now and in the coming years:

  • The Patient-provider relationship continues to remain the top driver of satisfaction, outweighing factors such as wait time and hospital facilities.

  • Providers must draw on these relationships as they implement safety policies, expand telehealth, and enhance care delivery treatments.

  • Patients who follow safety instructions are more satisfied with their care experiences and report greater trust in their hospitals.

  • Ongoing patients satisfaction with telehealth services depends heavily on effective communication during appointments, empathetic care from providers, and convenience.
