Shaping theEXPERIENCE

1. Common Definition of Experience


6

In order to make improving the Experience a reality an organization must first align around a single, clear definition of what Experience is.

Gallup Experience is about engaging patients. Engaged healthcare

is better healthcare for everyone.

Beryl Institutethe sum of all interactions,

shaped by an organization’s culture, that influence patient

perceptions, across the continuum of care

Forrester and TemkinHow customers perceive

their interactions with your organization

BMC Health Services Researchpatients' self-reports of their experience of inpatient care, including staff-patient

interactions, information provision, involvement in decisions and support for

self-care and overall ratings of care.

Deloittethe quality and value of all of the interactions—direct and

indirect, clinical and non-clinical— spanning the entire

duration of the patient/provider relationship

Integrated Loyalty SystemsThe patient’s cumulative evaluation of the journey they have with you, starting when they first need you and based on their clinical and emotional interactions, which are shaped by your people, your processes and your physical setting, and

shaped by their expectations of you.

Reducing suffering and reducing anxiety across the entire continuum of care, from

the first phone call to discharge.

Success in the age of the customer requires the ability to design, implement and manage experiences in a disciplined way.

Organizations can build this capability by following a four-phased path: Repair, Elevate, Optimize and Differentiate.

Each phase requires employees to adopt new, increasingly sophisticated experience management practices that fix what’s broken and prevent future problems.
