Patient experience

Patient experience describes the range of interactions that patients have with the healthcare system, including care from health plans, doctors, nurses, and staff in hospitals, physician practices, and other healthcare facilities. Understanding patient experience is a key step in moving toward patient-centered care. Evaluating patient experience provides a complete picture of healthcare quality. It reflects whether patients are receiving care that is respectful of and responsive to their preferences, needs, and values.
