WEBINAR DETAILS

The caregiver experience survey is just that, a survey, and the lack of response is difficult to combat. But hospices can affect the scores they are getting from the ones that DO respond! Some of the questions that impact the CAHPS Hospice Survey results are directly impacted by the influence your clinicians have on the patients and their caregivers. Are your clinicians treating diagnoses and symptoms or are they treating patients? If your patients believe they are just another Medicare number to you and your staff, your CAHPS results will reflect that. This session will take you through all the questions that affect the measures and provide best practice advice on ensuring the patient not only feels like a top priority but knows that you are the best hospice provider around.
