Assessment of Home Infusion Patient Satisfaction – 2019 NHIF Benchmarking Program Results
- NHIF’s 1-page benchmarking summary summarizes the composite scores for the twelve standardized questions, representing the 2019 industry-wide data benchmarks for patient satisfaction.

Over the first two years, our patient satisfaction study reviewed data collected from a sample of more than 32,000 home infusion patients and over 6,000 completed surveys. Key findings include that patients are overwhelmingly satisfied with their home infusion experience and that patients receiving biologic therapies report the highest rates of satisfaction among all therapy categories.

Organizations that utilize the standardized NHIF patient satisfaction survey tool can compare performance to national standards. The data includes 12 questions with 22 data points based on the NHIF Uniform Patient Satisfaction Survey Questions published in 2017, which cover the essential elements of services when patients receive infusions in the home setting.
