NASHVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 11, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Beryl Institute announces the release of the full research report from its latest patient experience benchmarking study, A Call to Action for the Future of Human Experience. The study engaged over 1,000 healthcare organization voices from 34 countries across six continents and shares trends, identifies changes, elevates challenges and shares insights on patient experience including how healthcare professionals are structuring their experience efforts across the globe.

Since the launch of its first biennial benchmarking study in 2011, the Institute continues to expand the conversation on experience. It has evolved from something that healthcare does to what healthcare is and will need to be. The study reinforces the idea that experience is essential to the future of healthcare and through community, greater change can be achieved.

The study reveals relevant and practical data and insights, providing clarity on the state of patient experience across the continuum of care. According to the research:

  • Patient experience efforts continue to mature and remain established within healthcare organizations.
  • An integrated view of experience continues to be supported and is grounded in the engagement of patients and families as well as employees.
  • Focused leadership remains the greatest support of experience, while diluted leadership emerges as the biggest roadblock.
  • Culture is vital for achieving positive experience efforts, signifying a growing recognition that the types of organizations we build in healthcare are the foundations for the experience provided.
  • Healthcare organizations are utilizing social media feedback as a tool to measure their overall improvement in patient experience.
  • The eight strategic lenses of The Beryl Institute's Experience Framework support and influence experience outcomes.

"The patient experience movement is at an exciting moment in its arc of life" said Jason Wolf, Ph.D., CPXP, President of The Beryl Institute. "We are now at an inflection point, where healthcare organizations globally now recognize the broad and integrated effort it takes to elevate the human experience they provide. It this realization and the action that results that will ultimately lead to the outcomes healthcare aspires to achieve every day."

This year's study was conducted in partnership with patient experience management firm Service Management Group. A complimentary webinar of the research occurred on Tuesday, September 10th.
