DESCRIPTION:The Cancer Patient Experience Survey has been running since 20
 10 and is sent to all patients in England who are seen for treatment in an
  NHS hospital during a three month period\, and who had a primary diagnosi
 s of cancer.  About 60\,000 responses are received each year\; respondents
  are asked about their experiences across the whole patient journey\, from
  before they were diagnosed with cancer\, to follow up care after discharg
 e from hospital.  Over the past few years\, I have been involved in severa
 l pieces of research using this survey.  One of these projects compared th
 e ethnicity reported in an individual’s hospital record\, with the ethni
 city they self-reported in their survey response.  A second explored wheth
 er differential response rates between hospitals are a challenge to the va
 lidity of organisation performance comparisons based on the survey finding
 s.  In this talk I will describe both these pieces of work\, as exemplars 
 of contemporary / novel findings from patient experience surveys\; I will 
 also introduce the survey itself\, and the broader contexts in which it is
  used.
