Is there any statistic less valuable than the patient satisfaction score?


Recommended Posts

Patient "satisfaction" does not in any way equate to good medicine.

Worked in Occ Med Clinic - guy comes in with open distal tuft amputation that needs OR, bone chipped, flap made and sewn down. Send him STAT to hand surgeon for same day procedure.

He gives ME bad scores because he had to be admitted and I didn't meet his needs IN CLINIC.

That about sums up the usefulness of that score.
