TITLE OF INFORMATION COLLECTION: Medicare.gov Web Satisfaction Survey


PURPOSE OF COLLECTION:

What are you hoping to learn / improve? How do you plan to use what you learn? Are there artifacts (user personas, journey maps, digital roadmaps, summary of customer insights to inform service improvements, performance dashboards) the data from this collection will feed?

The purpose of this data collection is to examine Medicare.gov user satisfaction to enable CMS to identify areas for improvement on the website. This data feeds into an overall consumer research and user experience strategy to continuously improve consumer experience across CMS products and channels.


TYPE OF ACTIVITY: (Check one)


[ ] Customer Research (Interview, Focus Groups)

[ X ] Customer Feedback Survey

[ ] User Testing


ACTIVITY DETAILS


  1. How will you collect the information? (Check all that apply)

[ X] Web-based or other forms of Social Media

[ ] Telephone

[ ] In-person

[ ] Mail

[ ] Other, Explain


  1. Who will you collect the information from?

Explain who will be interviewed and why the group is appropriate for the Federal program / service to connect with. Please provide a description of how you plan to identify your potential group of respondents and if only a sample will be solicited for feedback, how you will select them (e.g., anyone who provided an email address to a call center rep, a representative sample of Veterans who received outpatient services in May 2019, do you have a list of customers to reach out to (e.g., a CRM database that has the contact information, intercept interviews at a particular field office?)


Data is collected from individuals who are current Medicare.gov website users. A random sample of 25% of Medicare.gov users receive an automated pop-up with an invitation to participate in the satisfaction survey on motion to exit the site. Participants who agree to participate are taken directly to the survey for completion.


  1. How will you ask a respondent to provide this information?

(e.g., after an application is submitted online, the final screen will present the opportunity to provide feedback by presenting a link to a feedback form / an actual feedback form)


Upon motion to leave the website (mouse motion toward the top right corner), selected users receive a pop-up invitation, asking if they would like to provide feedback about their experience on the website. Those who agree to participate are taken immediately to the survey, which is collected online and unmoderated. Data is automatically saved as it is entered.


  1. What will the activity look like?

Describe the information collection activity – e.g. what happens when a person agrees to participate? Will facilitators or interviewers be used? What’s the format of the interview/focus group? If a survey, describe the overall survey layout/length/other details? If User Testing, what actions will you observe / how will you have respondents interact with a product you need feedback on?


The survey will be conducted online, using Qualtrics software. It is unmoderated and designed to take each participant approximately four minutes to complete. Each question will be shown on a single screen, with a “next” button to get to the next question. The survey data will be automatically saved as it is entered. No PII is linked to individual responses to the survey.


  1. Please provide your question list.

Paste here the questions or prompts presented to participants in your activity. If you have an interview / facilitator guide, that can be attached to the submission and referenced here.
