The Centers of Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) is preparing a new patient-satisfaction survey tailored to long-term-care hospitals in order to gain more information about the quality of care Medicare beneficiaries get in these facilities. If implemented, the findings from the LTCH Patient and Family Member Experience of Care (PEC) Survey may be published on the CMS website to help consumers make more informed decisions about long-term-care settings and drive improvements in the quality of care.
