HCAHPS Scores Drive Reputation, Revenue, and Results

Protect and Grow Medicare Reimbursements

Hospitals can gain or lose up to 2% of their Medicare reimbursements each year based on HCAHPS scores. Effective training that improves survey performance protects critical revenue streams and strengthens financial stability.

Stand Out with Superior Public Ratings

HCAHPS results are publicly reported, directly influencing your hospital’s reputation. High-performing hospitals attract more patients, strengthen community trust, and build competitive advantage.

Deliver Exceptional Patient Outcomes

The HCAHPS survey captures what matters most to patients—communication, responsiveness, and overall experience. Staff training aligned with these measures ensures that every patient interaction leads to better satisfaction and safer outcomes.

Always Culture is A Proven Training Solution for Patient Experience Excellence

Patient satisfaction is a key focus for most healthcare organizations across the US. Now that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has tied Value-Based Purchasing reimbursements to the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) scores, it has also become a financial priority.

Training that Targets the HCAHPS Measures that Matter Most

Always Culture is a series of patient-centered training videos focusing on specific measures directly from the HCAHPS survey. These videos address five key HCAHPS measures:

Responsiveness of Hospital Staff

The measure of responsiveness relates to two specific questions on the HCAHPS survey: those dealing with nursing response to call lights and toileting. This video touches on specific skills and best practices to improve staff responsiveness in these areas.

Communication with Nurses

The HCAHPS questions that concern communication with nurses address how staff members listen, how they communicate, and if they do it all with courtesy and respect.

Communication about Medications

Knowing that a majority of post-discharge adverse events are medication-related, good patient education and clear staff communication on medications are critical. This video focuses on tactics staff can use to educate patients on their medications, their dosages, and side effects.

Quietness and Restfulness

This new measure was introduced in 2025 and focuses on ensuring patients feel the rest they need during their stay. Videos highlight strategies to minimize disruptions, manage noise levels, and create a restful environment.

Discharge and Transition of Care

A smooth transition of care is always a main goal, but patient safety is at the heart of every discharge. Early and frequent communication is the key to a safe and efficient discharge to the next level of care, and this video focuses on key tactics to ensure that your staff are adequately preparing their patients for discharge.
