Instructions for Format of Questionnaire


Proper formatting of a questionnaire improves response rates, the ease of completion, and the accuracy of responses. The CAHPS team’s recommendations include the following:


  • If feasible, insert blank pages as needed so that the survey instructions (see next page) and the first page of questions start on the right-hand side of the questionnaire booklet.

  • Maximize readability by using two columns, serif fonts for the questions, and ample white space.

  • Number the pages of your document, but remove the headers and footers inserted to help sponsors and vendors distinguish among questionnaire versions.
