  Providers are on the front lines of the healthcare system, and are becoming increasingly squeezed by everyone else who participates in that system.

Insurers, Medicare and other payers increasingly squeeze reimbursements or fail to pay due to paperwork and coding requirements.

Worse - patients seem to be getting more difficult to deal with every day. They are non-compliant, uninsured, take too much time, or show up with stacks of Internet research findings.  They never used to complain.  Now it seems they don't stop.

Then along come "patient satisfaction scores" - as if you don't have enough challenges.  Yet, you have no choice but to deal with patient satisfaction, because whether or not you can continue to practice, or even stay in business, will be partially dependent on the feedback you receive from patients.

Perhaps most frustrating of all is that you know that if the system didn't work the way it does, then patient satisfaction would always be your among your first considerations. That's one of the important reasons you chose a career in medicine to begin with.

Trisha may be able to help.  Here's how:

For her entire career, first as a classroom teacher, then later as a marketer, Trisha's work has always focused on communication. Now, as Every Patient's Advocate, and based on the work and resources she has developed since 2004, Trisha has been able to create tools and tactics that help all participants in healthcare better understand each other's challenges, and therefore improve their communications, satisfaction and outcomes using those tools and tactics.

Included in those tools are ways providers can better communicate with their patients, and ways they can help their patients better communicate with them.  The focus is on understanding each other's challenges, then using that understanding to improve satisfaction.
