Spurred on in part by government policies that base a portion of reimbursement around patient satisfaction, in 2016, Texas Children's Hospital instituted a patient-focused communication course entitled Breakthrough Communication. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of this training on provider-specific Press Ganey scores within the Department of Surgery, and to assess whether changes in Press Ganey scores correlate to hospital volume and revenue. The intervention period was defined as calendar year 2017. Full-time faculty between 2016 and 2018 who completed the course in 2017 and had at least 10 returned Press Ganey surveys before and after the course were included in this study. Patient volume and revenue were analyzed. A subgroup analysis was conducted to compare participant against nonparticipant plastic surgeons. For the 56 surgeons who met the inclusion criteria, mean provider Press Ganey ratings increased from 92.0 to 94.3 following participation (p = 0.003). When compared to before intervention, clinical encounters increased by 26.2 percent, the number of patients increased by 26.0 percent, payments increased by 25.2 percent, and charges increased by 21.2 percent. In our subgroup analysis, there was a relative increase of 11 percent in the number of patients and 10 percent in the number of encounters for participant plastic surgeons. Participants reported 113 percent increases in charges and 71 percent increases in payments, whereas nonparticipants had decreases of 10 percent in charges and 4 percent in payments. The authors' findings indicate that improving surgeons' patient-centered communication skills is associated with an increase in patient satisfaction and an accompanying increase in both volume and reimbursements.
