The value of staff recognition in healthcare

When staff feel seen, patients feel cared for. Behind every exceptional patient experience is a team that feels valued, connected, and inspired.

By investing in staff recognition with Kudoboard, you’re not only creating a more positive work culture—you’re directly improving the patient experience and your ability to secure Medicare reimbursements through better PX scores.

âś… Top quartile HCAHPS = 20% more profitability
âś… 1% increase in PX scores = $250K in annual revenue
âś… Higher staff engagement = 41% lower absenteeism

Source: Gallup

94% of patients say provider attitude impacts their experience more than wait time or even outcomes. A culture of gratitude improves how staff show up—and how patients perceive care.

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) adjust hospital payments based on the quality of care. A core part of that quality is the patient experience. Medicare payments are tied directly to PX (HCAHPS) performance.
