This has led to the use of new measures and communication techniques, including shared decision-making and motivational interviewing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsing patient-reported outcomes at the point of service helps providers identify what matters most to the patient in front of them now. Describing treatment options and deciphering a patient's preferences effectively is a process, which has been likened to arriving at a diagnosis. Providers make a medical diagnosis by discerning a patient's primary complaints, past history, exam findings, and test results. A preference diagnosis can be thought of similarly. Providers work with their patients to identify what matters most to them, discuss the risks and benefits of the available treatment options, and support the patient as needed through the decision-making process. Once informed of their options, patients frequently chose treatments that require modifying their habits. Motivational interviewing helps patients and providers understand what matters most now and design care plans that provide appropriate support. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile many healthcare providers and leaders may be familiar with patient-reported outcomes from research articles, and have heard of shared decision-making and motivational interviewing, few have experience using them. Fewer still understand how each relates to the other. This book helps leaders and healthcare providers better understand how to use patient-reported data to their advantage at the point of service. The book provides the background for developing shared knowledge and shared language, along with extensive examples of dialogue between providers and patients. In addition, the book contains personal interviews of subject matter experts who have significant experience using these measures. The result is a comprehensive understanding of how these measures and techniques can help providers, organizations, and patients navigate this modern healthcare management opportunity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThom Walsh, PhD\u003c\/strong\u003e, is the Founder and Chief Strategy Officer\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eof Cardinal Point Healthcare Solutions, an Adjunct Lecturer at\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethe Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice, \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eand a Visiting Associate Professor of Community Medicine at\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethe Oxley College of Health Sciences at the University of\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTulsa.
