Spero Health Releases Healthcare Industry Leading NPS Scores Reflecting World Class Services in Outpatient Addiction Treatment

Outpatient addiction treatment pioneer and national leader, Spero Health post organizational record-breaking satisfaction scores for thousands of patients. These impressive numbers point to the compassionate, patient centered care at the heart of their outpatient addiction treatment program.

BRENTWOOD, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Spero Health, a national leader who has helped more than 35,000 patients on their journey to stable recovery from addiction, announced today that the organization earned a Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 82.7 among patients in their outpatient addiction treatment program which is an even higher score than the organization earned last year. The high score is considered “world class” based on global NPS standards and was a result of an organization wide survey that focused on obtaining patient feedback in its commitment to delivering the best patient experience and life-saving care to those struggling with addiction. NPS data collected from thousands of Spero Health patients also showed 99.7% of patients reported that they believe Spero Health teammates care about them as a person. These numbers demonstrate Spero Health’s dedication to delivering exceptional patient care in a positive, rewarding environment that promotes compassion and respect as part of the patient experience.

According to the Centers for Disease Control in 2021, drug overdose deaths in the U.S. topped 100,000, an increase of 28.5% of deaths from the previous year. “An industry leading NPS score of 82.7 is significant and is a strong reflection of our organizational culture because caring for our patients is at the very heart of what we do. Our Core Values of Compassion, Accountability, Respect, Commitment, Integrity, and Team are the backbone of who we are. The recent data showing 99.7% of our patients feel cared for by our team is why thousands have been successful in their recovery journey with us,” said Steve Priest, Spero Health CEO. “Our goal remains the same: to bring addiction treatment to more people in more places, and results of this survey are a vote of confidence that year over year, our strength as an organization and the life-changing results seen in our patient population is because they feel cared for and supported. That treatment must go beyond structured treatment plans, but patients must also feel a sense of belonging as connectivity is a vital component to positive outcomes in recovery.

Spero Health releases this data annually ahead of a month’s long celebration in communities across the organization as part of National Recovery Month which occurs every September. During this month, government agencies, stakeholders, and communities, partner with individuals in recovery and their families to celebrate progress, educate the public, and combat stigma surrounding mental health and substance use disorders.
