Realizing a Vision for Improved Patient Relations using Complaint
Management Software
WellStar Health System delivers world class healthcare through an
integrated network of hospitals, physicians and services. This
integration was facilitated by implementing Everest: Customer Focused
Quality in 2001 and then expanding the system in 2006.
The expanded Everest system was designed to incorporate multiple
hospital locations. This enables the patient-focused staff to
communicate with each other with accurate, real-time information.
WellStar’s paperless complaint tracking system has improved visibility
and productivity. By aligning their reporting with Press Ganey
criteria, WellStar is able to measure quality improvement based on
established standards.
