Learning from Patient Experience: Where We Have Been & Where We Can Go

Wednesday, July 27th
11am - 12pm ET
REGISTER HERE
 
This webinar, co-hosted by the Center for Patient Partnerships, will review the advent of patient experience as a vital measure of health care quality and highlight innovations designed to elicit patients' stories about health and health care with more narrative richness than current validated instruments. Specifically, we will highlight two strategies for rigorously collecting and using qualitative patient experience data:

1. A set of validated open-ended questions which can either stand alone or be used in conjunction with patient experience surveys, and

2. An internationally-vetted methodology for researching and publicly presenting video-taped patient experience data, which is now being implemented in the United States.
 
 Presenters: 
Mark Schlesinger, PhD, is a Professor of Health Policy and a fellow of the Institution for Social and Policy Studies at Yale University. He is also a former editor of the Journal of Health Policy, Politics and Law. For the past two decades, he has studied patient experience and patients’ responses to problematic medical encounters, and in recent years, he has complemented that work with research into ways of enhancing the scope, clarity, and influence of patient voice. 

Rachel Grob, MA, PhD, is Director of National Initiatives, and faculty at the Center for Patient Partnerships, as well as a Senior Scientist at the Department of Family Medicine, University of Wisconsin-Madison. She is a sociologist who has devoted her career, both inside and outside academia, to involving patients in the discourse, policy processes and institutional arrangements that impact their health care.
