Hospitals are continuously facing pressures to mitigate the gap between patient’s expectations and the quality of services provided. Now with Medicare reimbursements tied to Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) scores, institutions are attempting interventions to increase satisfaction scores. However, a standard framework to understand patient values and perceptions and subsequently translate it into reliable measures of patient satisfaction does not exist, particularly in the inpatient settings. This article highlights opportunity for the addition of qualitative customer value research to augment the information providers gain from HCAHPS scores and provide additional indicators that can be used in improving the patient experience. In this article, patient laddering interviews and hierarchical value mapping are reviewed as methodologies to understand patient core satisfaction values during their hospital stay. A systematic literature search was performed to identify articles addressing laddering interviews and hierarchical value mapping as applied to health care. Inclusion criteria involved studies relating to health care and using laddering interviews. Exclusion criteria included non-health-care studies. Only 3 studies were found eligible for this review. Our systematic review of literature revealed only few studies which may help to guide us to improve patient experience using laddering interviews. These interviews can help compose a personalized bedside survey which may be more meaningful than current widely used HCAHPS survey.
