HCAHPS 101 Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems

HCAHPS 101 © Planetree 2013

• A tool that asks patients about their hospital experiences • A method for collecting standardized patient experience data • A method for adjusting data for equitable comparisons and benchmarking • A mechanism for publicly reporting results • Incentives for using to improve hospital quality of care

© Planetree 2013

• Dec. 2012 publicly reported scores are based on more than 2.9 million completed surveys from patients at 3,892 hospitals • Every day more than 7,900 patients complete the HCAHPS survey

Improving the patient experience is a priority

HCAHPS and the Quality Connection © Planetree 2013

“HCAHPS performance is more predictive of readmission rates

than the objective clinical performance measures often used to assess the quality of hospital care.” Boulding et al. in American Journal of Managed Care, 2011

“Two overall measures of hospital performance, the overall rating

of the hospital and willingness to recommend the hospital, had strong relationships with better technical performance in processes of care related to pneumonia, CHF, myocardial infarction, and for surgical care.” Isaac et al. in Health Services Research, 2010

Value-Based Purchasing: Transition from pay for reporting to pay for performance • Points earned for:

– Achievement – Improvement – Consistency (HCAHPS)

2013 Value Based Purchasing Domains © Planetree 2013

Clinical Process of Care Domain (12 measures)

Patient Experience of Care Domain (8 measures)

• AMI • Heart Failure • Pneumonia • Surgical Care Improvement • Healthcare Associated Infections

• HCAHPS measures • 7 composites & 1 global measure • Does not include Likelihood to Recommend • Quiet at Night and Cleanliness rolled into one composite

The heart of the matter – relationships and communication. “I find that if the doctors would just talk in my terms instead of these long words, that would help. I am not a doctor; these words don’t mean nothing to me.” -

A Consistent Finding: It’s All About Culture © Planetree 2012

• High performing sites credited their success not to specific practices, but to a well-established culture of patientcentered care

• High performing sites had implemented a comprehensive approach to patient engagement, family involvement and staff engagement

Patient-Centered Strategies for HCAHPS Improvement 1) Partner with patients. 2) Create a physical environment that supports your culture. 3) Make data meaningful to staff. 4) Look beyond the hospital setting. 5) Put compassion first.

1. Partner with Patients and Families

Patient Pathways

Shared Medical Records

Impact of Shared Medical Record on Overall Patient Satisfaction with Care

Very satisfied with their overall hospital experience?

Patients who are told they could read their medical chart are more likely to be very satisfied with their overall hospital experience 90%

No

Were you told you could read your medical chart? *Note: In a random survey of 4500 adults, 79% patients expressed interest in access (Fowles, Arch Intern Med. 2004)

“Reviewing the chart with someone put me at ease.”

Partnering with Patients…Beyond the Bedside

• Invite patients to serve on hospital committees and HCAHPS improvement task forces • Invite board members to round on patients prior to every board meeting

• Invite a patient to share his or her story (what went well, what didn’t go well) to kick off every board meeting

2. Create a physical environment that supports your culture

“Why is the hospital not as humanely practical in aesthetic effect as it tries to be in physical support?” Frank Lloyd Wright

Poor Patient Experience = Post-Hospital Syndrome © Planetree 2013

CONTRIBUTING FACTORS: •

sleep deprivation



disruption of normal circadian rhythms



poor nourishment



poorly controlled pain and discomfort



medications that can alter cognition and physical function



deconditioning due to bed rest or inactivity

Krumholz, HM. N Engl J Med 368:100 - 102 | January 10 , 2013

Assess Your Healing Environment/Reduce Stressors © Planetree 2013

EMOTIONAL SUPPORT • Family overnight accommodations

SLEEP SUPPORT • Quiet Environment/Sleep Menus NOURISHMENT • Family Kitchens/Access to Food

CONNECTION TO NATURAL ENVIRONMENT • Healing Gardens and Natural Light

More Evidence

The use of call lights by patients decreased by 40% following implementation of decentralized nursing stations & 24-hour visitation (Charmel, 2003)

3. Make data meaningful to staff. But remember, the data are not the point, patient experiences are the point! -

Making Data Meaningful to Staff © Planetree 2013

Engage staff (and patients) in the selection of quality measures Involve staff in performance improvement efforts  Give staff time to participate in improvement efforts

Display data so it is easy to read and standardized Make staff aware of the data being measured  Discuss in staff meetings  Reinforce with postings and displays Meredith EK. Developing Frontline Staff in Performance Improvement. Nurse Leader; 2011.

4. Look beyond the hospital setting © Planetree 2013

New HCAHPS Domain: Care Transitions © Planetree 2013

Mandatory for patients discharged as of Jan. 2013: • Question 1: The hospital staff took my preferences and those of my family or caregiver into account in deciding what my healthcare needs would be when I left the hospital. • Question 2: When I left the hospital, I had a good understanding of the things I was responsible for in managing my health. • Question 3: When I left the hospital, I clearly understood the purpose for taking each of my medications.

up a chair and said he wanted to talk…and we talked on my terms.”
