You know that the patient experience is quickly becoming one of the most important aspects of the entire healthcare experience. Patients want quality care, and HCAHPS regulations have made the patient experience a key part of value-based care.
Below is a list of 5 healthcare podcasts that will help you to increase your understanding of the patient experience. Listen on your own time during your commute, lunch break, your workout routine.
“Let’s say we have the best patient satisfaction… we got the best rankings…None of that matters to the next patient. So, the next patient who shows up doesn’t really care what you did for the last guy. They care ‘what are you going to do for my family?’ And so it’s this constant need to be focused on that very next patient because you’re being tested again.” – Dr. David Feinberg
The Beryl Institute’s To Care Is Human podcast is hosted by President and CEO Jason Wolf, Ph. D.
The first episode features an interview with Dr. David Feinberg, VP Healthcare at Google Health, focusing on the human experience.
