We\u2019re advising providers take this opportunity to offer a holistic, digital approach that centers on the patient\u2019s access to quality care and post-care services; this will better position healthcare providers for long-term growth.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe report suggests four ways to improve the patient experience:\n<\/p>\n<ul class=\"bwlistdisc\">\n<li><b>Address patient concerns in a personalized manner<\/b>: Communicate specific actions taken to protect patients \u2014 such as offering separate entrances, allowing contactless payment and online paperwork, or even describing the advanced level of protective gear used by staff. When possible, physicians should deliver the message directly.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Meet people at the front door: <\/b>Address unique patient needs and ease COVID-19<b \/>concerns<b \/>before a patient steps foot into the office or enters a virtual waiting room.<b \/>Embed new safety and wellness protocols and practices throughout every interaction, from finding a doctor to scheduling an appointment or completing registration in advance of a visit. In fact, the survey found that 74% of patients are now likely to use online chat or texting to provide check-in information before their appointment if such a service is available.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Enhance virtual care capabilities: <\/b>Develop new models that use more virtual care, from bookings to meetings, so that those who remain wary of in-person care have more options. Patients have indicated a strong desire for this to happen. <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fnewsroom.accenture.com%2Fnews%2Fpatients-want-to-continue-to-use-virtual-care-even-after-the-pandemic-ends-accenture-survey-finds.htm&amp;esheet=52339895&amp;newsitemid=20201201005209&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=In+a+survey+of+2%2C700+patients+that+Accenture&amp;index=3&amp;md5=a4e0017fb2f5d18d938a69cc2779ef2e\">In a survey of 2,700 patients that Accenture<\/a> conducted in May, 60% said that based on their experience using virtual care and devices during the pandemic, they want to use technology more for communicating with healthcare providers and managing their conditions in the future.\n<\/li>\n<li><b>Listen through social channels: <\/b>Actively monitor local and national social channels to gather real-time insight into patient perceptions and community sentiment. This enables quick operational pivots to address consumer needs and measure progress along the way.\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n\u201cWhile many health systems have improved safety protocols in light of COVID-19, they must also make the patient experience a top priority, not just to convince people to return, but also to lead the way in re-imagining the future of healthcare,\u201d Stephan said. \u201cIn this new future of care, health systems need to provide effective, trusted, reliable care \u2014 both in person and virtually \u2014 while instilling confidence and demonstrating safety and respect. Otherwise, patients are likely to switch to other providers who are reinventing how healthcare services are delivered.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p><b>About the research<br \/>\n<br \/><\/b>Accenture surveyed 4,639 U.S. adults about the impact of COVID-19 on consumer trust across providers and payers; drivers of consumer willingness to return to in-person care; and the present and future use of virtual care.
