Survey template: Patient survey about accessibility for people with disabilities

It's always tough to get truly useful feedback when surveying patients about accessibility for people with disabilities, but that's exactly why we built this conversational AI survey template: to help you collect deeper, clearer insights—fast. Use and try this template on Specific for instant, actionable feedback that really matters to your accessibility initiatives.

What is a conversational survey and why AI makes it better for patients

We’ve all struggled with patient accessibility surveys that end up half-completed, full of vague answers, or simply abandoned. Traditional forms rarely adapt to respondents, and they often miss the nuances that make accessibility experiences unique to every patient.

That’s why a conversational survey—built and powered by AI instead of static forms—makes a real difference. Instead of pushing a long form at someone, you’re guiding them through a genuine, chat-based conversation that’s responsive and empathetic. Specific's AI survey generator was designed from the ground up to make these conversations feel natural for patients, collecting details that generic forms inevitably miss.

There’s good data behind this shift. Traditional online surveys often limp along with low response rates—averaging only 10–15%—and nearly 45% of people simply quit because of survey fatigue [2]. But AI-powered conversational surveys hit completion rates of 70–90%, and respondents are much less likely to drop out thanks to adaptive follow-up questions [3].

Why use AI for patient surveys?

• Adaptive follow-ups explore every topic until you get vivid, actionable stories—not just "yes" or "no."

• Accessibility built-in—it feels like a natural chat, works on any device, and adapts to diverse patient needs.

• Instant insights: Specific’s conversational approach collects feedback at almost twice the speed of old methods [4].

The result? Instead of unfinished forms, you get conversations that truly reveal what patients with disabilities are experiencing—and what actions will actually help. Plus, we’ve made sure the whole journey on Specific feels frictionless for both creators and respondents. If you’re interested in crafting your own, our AI survey template, or if you want to ask about something entirely different, try our AI survey builder for any custom prompt.

Automatic follow-up questions based on previous reply

Here’s where Specific stands out. The AI doesn’t just ask a list of questions. It’s actively listening—asking smart, nuanced follow-ups that dig deeper into each answer, much like an expert interviewer would. This is game-changing if you’ve ever tried to make sense of incomplete or unclear survey responses in the past.

• Patient: "The ramps in the waiting area are okay, but sometimes I struggle."

• AI follow-up: "Could you tell me more about what makes the ramps challenging? Is it their design, placement, or something else?"

Contrast that with a flat survey form, where you’d get: “I struggle.” End of story. Now you’re left guessing what needs improvement—never ideal when dealing with accessibility. Follow-ups illuminate the specifics that matter most.

With AI-powered follow-ups, each survey feels like a fluid, meaningful conversation. This is what makes a survey truly conversational—an experience that’s far superior to static forms.

Easy editing, like magic

If you’ve ever wasted hours tweaking a survey—rewriting questions, reordering, worrying if it’s clear enough—Specific’s AI survey editor is a lifesaver. Simply chat with our AI and ask for changes: “Focus more on wheelchair accessibility” or “Add a question about sign language interpreters.” AI instantly updates the template, drawing from expert knowledge so you don’t have to labor over wording or best practices. A few tweaks take seconds, not days—even for survey novices.

It’s honestly like telling a friendly assistant exactly what you need, and watching your survey transform in real time.

Delivering your survey to patients, easily

Getting a patient accessibility survey in front of the right people matters as much as crafting the right questions. With Specific, you have two top-tier options to make sure your survey meets patients where they are:

• Sharable landing page surveys:

  • Perfect for email outreach, social sharing, or including in newsletters

  • Best when you want feedback from a broad set of patients, maybe post-discharge or from advocacy groups

• In-product surveys:

  • Embed the survey into patient portals, apps, or booking sites

  • Ideal for capturing feedback at the exact moment a patient interacts with your digital tools

For accessibility surveys, landing pages are often a top pick—they provide a focused, mobile-friendly space that’s easy for patients (and their caregivers or allies) to use, no logins required. But if you have a patient-facing app, in-product surveys can gather feedback in context, right as accessibility features are used.

AI makes analyzing survey responses effortless

Once those conversational survey responses start rolling in, Specific’s AI survey analysis engine kicks in instantly. It summarizes open-ended replies, spots central themes and accessibility pain points, and suggests clear next steps—no wrestling with spreadsheets.

Tasks that took hours now take seconds, because AI can process feedback up to 60% faster and with 95% accuracy [4]. You can even chat with the AI about your results, drilling down into specifics with natural language.
