ABSTRACT:


In order to assess the effectiveness of the CAHPS and SOPS technical assistance that Westat provides, Westat will ask those that receive technical assistance to complete a brief web-based questionnaire. The feedback will allow Westat to evaluate its performance in meeting user needs and to identify ways to improve its customer service. Westat will ask all users who contact the CAHPS technical assistance mailbox (CAHPS1@westat.com) and the SOPS technical assistance mailbox (SafetyCultureSurveys@westat.com) to complete a brief web based questionnaire hosted on SurveyMonkey. SurveyMonkey was chosen because it allows for free, easy to use and secure web-based administration. The questionnaire addresses user experience with obtaining timely and useful technical assistance.



Organizations that download MONAHRQ and generate reports to help improve health care are referred to as “Host Users.” The Future of MONAHRQ Survey 2014 will be accessible to current and prospective Host Users. Examples of Host Users include: state agencies, public health departments, hospital associations, hospital systems, and individual hospitals, multi-stakeholder alliances and coalitions, Quality Improvement Organizations (QIOs), and health plans.
