Our Research Solutions
HealthStream has a unique approach to assessing and improving patient experience that gets results. Aligned with CAHPS®, we focus first on patient experience, connecting with patients through phone surveys. Our success lies in the ability to deliver actionable insights, which determine how our customers can educate staff to change their behaviors and ultimately improve patient survey responses to “Always.” Other HealthStream research products measure employee engagement, physician satisfaction, and community perceptions. For all surveys, we provide professional survey planning and design, as well as expert analysis and consulting, to help customers execute plans based on results.
