Frequently Asked Questions
How does feedback lead to actual changes?
Each feedback cycle produces an action plan with assigned owners and deadlines. Progress is reported to leadership monthly and shared with patients at review meetings.
How often is patient feedback collected?
Formal feedback is collected monthly through surveys and quarterly through in-depth interviews. Ad-hoc feedback is captured at any time through the support channel.
Is feedback anonymous?
Patients can choose to provide feedback anonymously or attributed. Both types are analyzed equally, though attributed feedback allows for more targeted follow-up.
