Patient satisfaction and the patient experience are vastly different different things. In this pod we discuss: how experience is influenced by every conceivable touchpoint, and perception, how making a purposeful choice to care helps ensure that our patients have a positive experience, efficiently handling the situation when a patient has extra questions, the best way to acknowledge a patient’s long wait, and de-escalating the unhappy patient.Guest Bio: Justin Bright MD, CPXP is an attending physician and the Assistant Medical Director for Patient Experience in the Department of Emergency Medicine at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit.
