What is the difference between a clinical audit and a patient satisfaction survey?
Asking patients about the treatment they have received is a vital part of audit, as it can used to assess the degree to which care was offered against standards. Some forms of patient questionnaire are outcome measures, such as PROMS, and, whilst these are related to audit, are not audit in themselves. They are however vital for assessing service quality and an excellent addition to audit.
