Abstract:
Optimizing pre-hospitalized services is a powerful measure for hospitals to improve patient experience. In June 2022, a certain maternal and child health hospital had carried out a value chain management for pre-hospitalized patient communication based on patient needs. The Kano model and value chain theory were used to analyze the patient demand attributes, clarify the value-added activities of pre-hospitalized patient communication value chain, and implement value-added activities, including carrying out the GLTC doctor-patient communication model, optimizing the information management system of the admission preparation center, establishing a hospital preparation group management platform, and introducing the " Zhejiang Nursing" platform, to achieve the added value of key value chains in patient communication, improve the quality of pre-hospitalized services, and improve patient experience. After one year of practice, the pre-hospitalized patient management indexes, including the unregistration rate after issuing the hospitalization certificate, the cancellation rate after registration, and the average length of stay had decreased from 9%, 3%, and 4.65 days before practice (June 2021 to May 2022) to 6%, 1%, and 4.13 days after practice (June 2022 to May 2023), respectively. As well as the timely completion rate of pre-hospital inspection and the average satisfaction rate of pre-hospitalized patients had increased from 93% and 94% to 98% and 97%, respectively. The practice had achieved good application effects, so as to provide references for improving the level of pre-hospitalized services and improving the patient experiences in medical institutions in our country.
