Patient Survey Agent

The Patient Survey Agent

Collect PROMs, PREMs, CSAT, and quality surveys at clinical scale. The Patient Survey Agent runs structured surveys through chat at 3–10× the response rate of paper or email — with real-time dashboards for care teams.

Humans for care. AI for everything else.

Patient Survey Agent

What it does

How the Patient Survey Agent works.

Paper PROMs sit in drawers. Email PREMs die in spam filters. But hospitals still need patient-reported outcomes for quality reporting, accreditation, clinical improvement, and value-based care contracts. The Patient Survey Agent moves the survey to the channel patients actually open.

Structured surveys — validated instruments like PROMIS-10, HOOS, KOOS, PROMs specific to your specialty — are delivered via WhatsApp, Viber, Messenger, or SMS on the schedule that fits the protocol. Baseline, 6-week, 3-month, 6-month, 12-month. Or after every visit for PREM. Or after discharge for CSAT.

Responses feed real-time dashboards for clinicians and quality teams. Trend lines per surgeon, per specialty, per procedure. Threshold alerts when a patient's outcome scores drop. Automatic export to your Quality Management System or EMR.

Example workflow

A day in the life of this agent.

  1. 1Care team enrolls patient in a survey protocol (e.g., 6-week KOOS post-total-knee-replacement)
  2. 2Patient Survey Agent sends the baseline survey via WhatsApp at the enrollment point
  3. 3At each scheduled interval (6-week, 3-month, 6-month, 12-month), sends the next survey instance
  4. 4Patient responses are captured in structured format (scores, free-text)
  5. 5Care team dashboard updates in real time; alerts fire on score drops
  6. 6Full survey data exports to your Quality Management System or EMR for reporting

FAQ

Common questions about the Patient Survey Agent.

Which survey instruments are supported?

Any structured instrument, including but not limited to PROMIS-10, KOOS, HOOS, EQ-5D, WOMAC, SF-36, CSAT, NPS, and hospital-specific PREM instruments. New instruments are configured in the admin console; no development required.

How much higher are response rates via chat?

Typically 3-10× higher than paper or email. See /case-studies/kkh-orthopaedic-prom-uptake for a specific hospital that achieved 78% PROM patient uptake via WhatsApp.

Can survey timing follow a clinical protocol?

Yes. Any protocol timing — baseline, 6-week, 3-month, 6-month, 12-month, or event-triggered — is configurable per program. The agent tracks patient-specific enrollment dates and sends surveys accordingly.

Where do the results go?

Real-time to the care team dashboard, and exported to your Quality Management System, EMR, or external analytics platform via API. Standard instruments export in their canonical format; custom instruments export in structured JSON.

Are survey responses secure?

Yes. All responses are stored encrypted at rest (AES-256) and in transit (TLS 1.3), with per-tenant data residency and role-based access. Full security posture at /security.
