[3837] HHCAHPS: Patient Experience vs Patient Satisfaction and Why it matters in HHVBP
In-depth look at the HHCAHPS survey to learn how scores are interpreted, their impact, and how to improve your agency’s performance. Presentation Info: TAHC&H Event | Winter Conference | Fort Worth | Rich-Media Presentation Capture for Your Online On-Demand Access Presentation Date | February 22, 2024 Presentation Track | Medicare Home Health Program Description: With the introduction of the Home Health Value-Based Purchasing (HHVBP) Model, there's a direct financial implication for agencies based on their Home Health Care Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HHCAHPS) measures. It's vital for home health providers to recognize that "Patient Experience" is as crucial, if not more so, than the conventional view of HHCAHPS as simply a "Patient Satisfaction" indicator. A detailed examination of HHCAHPS reveals that an impressive 17 out of 19 questions zero in on patient experience, underlining its increasing significance. This focus resonates with the trends we've seen in acute care settings in the past few years. Elevating your agency's HHCAHPS scores holds significance because it indicates not just patient contentment but can also catalyze enhancements in quality, influence reimbursement and financial support, establish a competitive edge, guarantee adherence to regulations, furnish ongoing insights, enhance staff involvement, and foster a culture of accountability and transparency. Ultimately, this endeavor contributes to improved patient care and outcomes. In this program you will receive insights into the specific HHCAHPS questions that influence patients' evaluations of clinicians. Actionable strategies are offered to help agencies enhance patient experiences, improve HHCAHPS scores, and cultivate a more robust relationship between patients and clinicians in today's healthcare environment.

Bias, as defined by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Commission on Accreditation (ANCC COA/LSNA) is the “tendency or inclination to cause partiality, favoritism, or influence.” Commercial bias may occur when a CNE activity promotes one or more product(s) (drugs, devices, services, software, hardware, etc.). This definition is not all inclusive and participants may use their own interpretation in deciding if a presentation is biased. The ANCC COA is interested in the opinions and perceptions of participants at approved CNE activities, especially in the presence of actual or perceived bias in continuing education. Therefore, ANCC invites participants to access their “ANCC Accreditation Feedback Line” to report any noted bias or conflict of interest in the education activity. The toll free number is 1(866) 262-9730.
