Talking CAHPS With Rex Wallace Consulting
As we head toward the close of the year and inch closer to the 2026 CAHPS survey period, we’re navigating shifting benchmarks, changing member response patterns, and an industry in flux. The more things change the more they stay the same. Member experience measures still account for over 40% of our Star Ratings, keeping CAHPS, HOS, and year-round experience strategies key to QBP.
This episode will cover…
- What leading CAHPS performers are prioritizing right now as we head into year-end and the 2026 survey period
- The challenges, solutions, and measurable benefits of designing a year-round, connected strategy that drives improvement across all Star measures
- How to activate an orchestrated, cohesive engagement approach – powered by member-level predictions – to reduce abrasion, improve service recovery, and strengthen both perception and performance
- Ways health plans are linking CAHPS and HOS into a coordinated, multi-channel design that moves in step with the year, not just at survey time
