Quick answer

About this template

Clinical outcomes hinge on communication more than on technique. This survey asks patients four things after a consultation: did they understand the diagnosis and plan, did they feel heard, were their questions answered and do they know what to do next — plus a free-text “what should the provider start, stop or continue doing”. Aggregate scores support coaching; individual items go into development.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the same as CAHPS or Press Ganey items?
It borrows the structure; the wording is original and editable to your context.
Do patients answer honestly about a specific clinician?
Yes if the survey is anonymous; if tied to the clinician, response rates drop.
Can it be attached to specific clinicians?
Yes — a clinician picker at the top routes feedback for coaching.
Does it support aggregate reporting?
Yes — CSV and dashboard views roll up by clinician or department.
When is it sent?
Immediately after the visit while the interaction is fresh.
Why teams choose FormLM for healthcare forms?
Unlike a static PDF or clipboard, every FormLM healthcare template is a live, shareable form you can customize in the browser, collect unlimited responses with, and upgrade to a scored AI PDF report whenever you need to.
