Patient guide to patient experience surveys and ratings

Advocate Medical Group values the partnerships we have with our patients and their loved ones. We are committed to providing you the information you need at your fingertips to make informed decisions about your health care, and about the physicians and other providers who walk the care journey with you. As part of that commitment, we post our physicians’ patient satisfaction ratings online.
To assist you, we’ve developed this guide to help patients, family members and those considering appointments with Advocate Medical Group physicians understand how we capture and report our patient experience ratings.

About our survey

Advocate Medical Group is focused on providing an exceptional experience in every care interaction. All ratings are submitted by actual patients and verified by a leading company in the patient satisfaction industry. We measure all aspects of patient satisfaction. To ensure that we are holding ourselves to the highest standards, we partner with an independent patient satisfaction company. National Research Corporation provides the technology to display ratings and comments on our physician profile pages.

Who receives the survey?

The survey is sent to randomly selected Advocate Medical Group patients following their appointments. Patients are asked to complete the survey and provide comments regarding their care. We use this feedback to recognize our team and enhance the care we offer.

Do you post all comments?

Advocate Medical Group is committed to transparency. That means posting all relevant feedback – whether it’s positive or negative. However, we do not post comments that are libelous, profane, or those that risk the privacy of our patients. Every provider rating is published regardless of comment status.

How are the star ratings calculated?

We calculate our star ratings based on responses to the below questions from the patient experience survey.

• Did the care providers listen carefully to you?
• Did the care providers explain things in a way you could understand?
• How likely would you be to recommend this provider to your family and friends?

Why don’t we see patient ratings and comments for every doctor?

Industry best practice is clear that more data provides a more accurate picture. That’s why we require a minimum of 30 completed patient surveys per doctor before we post a physician’s rating. Over time, with more surveys received on an ongoing basis, the number of rated physicians will increase.

A physician’s rating will only be posted on the site when he/she has a minimum of 30 completed surveys.

Can anyone complete a survey or post a comment about a physician?

No. Only patients having an outpatient visit by an Advocate Medical Group physician may be selected to receive a survey. The results are based entirely from patients who have actually been treated by the physician.

How is patient information protected?

Patient names are not displayed through the online ratings and commentary reviews. All personally identifiable information is removed prior to display.

Description

Swanson’s post is located at the gates of the Alliance. In the same place, he conducts a SAFE test for all newcomers to the settlement. By passing a double charisma check, the Survivor may learn that the test serves to identify synths. Swanson follows the orders of the head of the Complex and in the Alliance keeps himself apart from the rest of the inhabitants. Even Mayor Jacob Orden does not know who he used to be, and believes that this behavior may be both a trait of Swanson’s character and part of his work for the Complex.

Shortly before the appearance of the Survivor in the Alliance in 2287, Swanson used a test to prove that the caravan owner’s daughter was a synth.

scientists discover the importance of speaking different languages ​​

A new study shows how parents who talk more to their babies improve their brain development. Top tip: talk to your child as much as possible and not in the same language.

A team at the University of Texas at Dallas, USA, has found some of the strongest evidence that parents who talk more to their children improve their cognitive development. The researchers used magnetic resonance imaging and audio recordings to demonstrate that caregiver speech contributes to a child’s long-term language development. Dr. Megan Swanson, Associate Professor of Psychology at the School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences, said: “This article is a step towards understanding why children who hear more words are better at speech, and what process contributes to this mechanism.”

• “Our paper, by the way, is one of two new papers showing for the first time the relationship between caregiver speech and white matter development,” added Megan Swanson. White matter in the brain improves communication between different areas of gray matter, which affects information processing .

Study included 52 infants from the Infant Brain Imaging Study (IBIS): mother tongue records were collected when the children were 9months and then again after six months, and MRI was performed at 3 and 6 months, and then at the age of 1 and 2 years. “This home recording time was chosen because it covers the ‘appearance’ of words,” Swanson explained. “We wanted to capture both the ‘pre-linguistic’ period of time and the moment after the birth of conversations as such.” Experts point out that an infant’s home environment, especially the quality of caregivers’ speech, directly affects language proficiency, but the mechanisms underlying this are unclear. So, scientists visualized several areas of the white matter of the brain, focusing on the development of neurological pathways.

“The arcuate fasciculus is a fibrous tract that everyone in neuroscience courses learn is essential for language production and understanding, but it has more to do with the adult brain. In children, we also looked at other potentially significant fiber pathways, including the uncinate fasciculus, which has been associated with learning and memory,” the authors write. The scientists measured the progress of white matter development: “As the fibers mature, the movement of matter becomes more restricted and the structure of the brain becomes more coherent,” says Swanson. “Because children are not born with highly specialized brains, one would expect the networks that support a given cognitive skill to be more diffuse at first and then become more specialized.”

Child development and parental speech

Megan Swanson’s team found that babies who heard more words developed their white matter structure more slowly. For example, children’s language abilities improved when they began to speak. The results of the study are in line with other recent studies showing that slower white matter maturation provides a cognitive advantage.

“As we grow older, the brain becomes less plastic – cognitive networks are fixed in certain places.
