What did the COO say?
FLORENCE CHANG
EVP & COO, MultiCare Health System
Not only did we develop a compelling vision for patient experience, we also gained the tools and the internal support necessary to turn that vision to reality; we began seeing improvement almost immediately.
Finally, West Monroe Partners recommended that MultiCare re-evaluate its progress and update its goals once per year.
Refresh goals and plans regularly
PHASE 5
West Monroe Partners identified customer centric metrics to assess whether each functional area is successful in achieving its goals.
Develop metrics for measuring progress
PHASE 3
West Monroe Partners worked with MultiCare to establish a monthly status reporting team, create a status reporting template for the team to use, and create a “Rule Book” to provide structure for the team and meetings.
Enhance progress through regular reporting and review
PHASE 4
West Monroe Partners identified goals and action items for the leaders of six business functions—Marketing, Pharmacy Refill, Clinic Administration, Physician Administration, Call Center, and Information Technology—to complete in order to support the newly defined customer experience strategy.
Align functional areas with a single strategy
PHASE 2
The first phase consisted of a CX North Star workshop where West Monroe Partners conducted a workshop with 24 of MultiCare’s executive leaders. From there, the team created customer personas that represent key patient segments. West Monroe Partners and MultiCare then used these personas to explore and “journeymap” patient experience in more detail to identify improvements.
Define the Customer Experience Strategy
PHASE 1

West Monroe Partners applied elements of its “DEEPEN” methodology to help MultiCare identify its strategy and an approach for organizing its six business units around it.
