This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the many approaches used to gauge patient happiness in healthcare environments as well as tactics for improving the patient experience.

It also evaluates, in a critical manner, the effectiveness of a number of programs and interventions intended to increase patient satisfaction, from improving provider-patient communication to using technological advancements. This study provides insightful information for healthcare administrators, politicians, and practitioners to develop focused interventions geared at maximizing patient happiness and promoting a patient-centered care paradigm. It does this by synthesizing empirical research and best practices.
