<strong>Note: </strong>For this measure, lower rates are better. Poor communication is defined as responded <em>sometimes</em> or <em>never</em> to the set of survey questions: "During this hospital stay, how often did doctors/nurses treat you with courtesy and respect?" "During this hospital stay, how often did doctors/nurses listen carefully to you?" and "During this hospital stay, how often did doctors/nurses explain things in a way you could understand?"</p>
