With the 2011 health care reform bill staring health care providers in the face, patient-centered outcomes are prominently vital for reimbursement purposes. Accountability of health care providers, particularly nurses, and how the patient and their families perceive the delivery of such care greatly influence the report cards. Therefore, a dissatisfied patient or family member who documents their concerns in a letter to the Chief Executive Officer of a hospital causes great consternation.

Consequently, hospitals are paying a great deal of attention to improving the patient safety status and raising the bar of patient outcomes and satisfaction.
