(MIPS) Survey


Instructions for Conducting the Survey via CATI



Overview


This telephone interview script is provided to assist interviewers while attempting to administer the CAHPS for MIPS Survey.


Instructions for Survey Vendors:


The scripts provided in this document use the same questions as those found in the mail version of the CAHPS for MIPS Survey

To ensure comparability, neither a group practice nor a survey vendor may change the wording of the survey questions, the response categories, or the order of the questions in any of the surveys

All text that appears in lowercase letters must be read out loud

For all questions that use Never/Sometimes/Usually/Always” response scale, the interviewer should say, Would you say…,” before reading the response options to the respondent

Text within a question that is in one of the following styles: underlined, or bolded, or highlighted, or IN UPPERCASE LETTERING, or italicized must be emphasized

Words that appear in < > are instructions or for informational purposes only and must not be read aloud

DONT KNOW and REFUSED answer categories appear in uppercase and within < > and should not be read to the respondent, but may be used for coding a response

Text that appears within parentheses and in both (UPPERCASE LETTERING AND ITALICIZED) indicate instructions for the interviewer regarding optional items. These instructions are not to be read aloud. Example: (READ RESPONSE OPTIONS ONLY IF NECESSARY).

Text that appears within [SQUARE BRACKETS] are used to show programming instructions that must not actually appear on electronic telephone interviewing system screens

Only one language must appear on the electronic interviewing system screen

Some items can and should be skipped by certain beneficiaries

o Dependent questions that are appropriately skipped should be coded as “88-NOT APPLICABLE”

Skip patterns should be programmed into the electronic telephone interviewing system. For example, if a beneficiary answers No to a screener question, the program should skip and go to the next screener question. The dependent questions between the screener questions must then be coded as “88-NOT APPLICABLE. Coding may be done automatically by the telephone interviewing system or later during data preparation.

When a response to a screener question is not obtained (“98-DON’T KNOW or 99-REFUSED” are considered responses), the screener question and any questions in the skip pattern should be coded as “M- MISSING.” In this case, the telephone interviewing system should be programmed to skip the dependent question(s) and go to the next screener question. Coding may be done automatically by the telephone interviewing system or later during data preparation.

  • When a respondent suspends an interview and does not resume, the unanswered screener questions should be coded “M – Missing.”

Survey vendors may not underline or use bold letters to emphasize words or questions other than what is already included in the final version of the questionnaires provided by CMS

Please note that the telephone script contains two questions from the questionnaires that ask about receiving assistance (proxy respondent). The questions Did someone help you complete this survey? and How did that person help you? are to be completed by the interviewer based on the respondent’s (or proxy’s) role during the interview.

In the event that a beneficiary is unable to complete the interview himself/herself, a proxy interview may be conducted provided the telephone interviewer is able to identify a suitable proxy respondent (someone who knows the beneficiary well and is able to answer health related questions about the beneficiary accurately). However, the telephone interviewer must obtain the beneficiary’s permission to have a proxy respondent assist them with the interview or complete the interview for them. If the interviewer is unable to speak to the beneficiary directly in order to identify a proxy respondent and obtain his/her permission to do the interview for them, they must not proceed with the interview. The CATI introductory script includes a script for identifying and obtaining consent to complete a proxy interview, as well as a reminder for the proxy respondent to answer the survey questions about the beneficiary.

To ensure that proxy respondents answer survey questions about the beneficiary, all proxy survey questions must be reworded to reference the selected beneficiary:



EXAMPLES:


Q4 In the last 6 months, how many times did [BENEFICIARY NAME] visit this provider to get care for [himself/herself]? Would [he/she] say:


Q45 In the last 6 months, did [BENEFICIARY NAME] try to make any appointments with specialists?


These questions are about [BENEFICIARY NAME] and will help us to describe the people who participate in this survey.


Q57 In general, how would [BENEFICIARY NAME] rate [his/her] overall health? Would [he/she] say:



Instructions for Telephone Interviewer


Interviewers must ask the survey questions and record the respondent’s responses in a standardized and consistent way, probing as necessary

Suggested probes are indicated by (PROBE IF NEEDED: TEXT IS IN ALL UPPER CASE LETTERING.)

Characters in < > are instructions or for informational purposes only and must not be read aloud

Text that appears within parentheses and in both (UPPERCASE LETTERING AND ITALICIZED) indicate instructions for the interviewer regarding optional items. These instructions are not to be read aloud. Example: (READ RESPONSE OPTIONS ONLY IF NECESSARY)

DONT KNOW and REFUSED answer categories appear in uppercase and within < > and should not be read to the respondent, but may be used for coding a response

Interviewers should read aloud all text that appears in lowercase letters

Text within a question that is in one of the following styles: underlined, or bolded, or highlighted, or IN UPPERCASE LETTERING, or italicized must be emphasized by the interviewer

Interviewers must follow basic interviewing conventions such as:

  • Conducting the interview in a neutral and unbiased fashion

  • Probing for complete answers in a neutral and professional manner

  • Reading all questions, transition phrases, and response options exactly as written

  • Reading all response options in lowercase

  • Maintaining the integrity of the questionnaire content by asking each question consistently and in the correct order, and without skipping any questions inappropriately

  • Recording responses accurately

  • Reading questions at an appropriate speed (at a normal pace, neither too fast, nor too slow)

  • Repeating questions as necessary


Interviewers should avoid assuming answers ahead of time, interpreting answers provided, or suggesting answers

Interviewers should avoid giving their opinion, even when asked; Interviewers should provide positive but neutral feedback to maintain cooperation and to show appreciation for the respondent’s contribution of time and effort.
