Frequently Asked Questions
The uSPEQ Mini is a shortened, validated version of the full uSPEQ Consumer Experience Survey, designed to help organizations efficiently gather meaningful feedback from the people they serve. By focusing on key aspects of consumer experience—including access, choice, respect, progress toward goals, satisfaction, and outcomes—the uSPEQ Mini provides actionable insights that organizations can use to support quality improvement initiatives.
This abbreviated survey is intended for organizations that want a quick, reliable way to understand their consumers’ experiences without the time commitment of the full uSPEQ survey. It is scientifically designed to maintain the validity and reliability of the data while streamlining the process for both organizations and respondents.
The 2026 uSPEQ Mini pilot is currently open to a limited number of organizations, providing an opportunity to participate in this innovative, early-stage project. Organizations that take part will receive guidance on survey distribution and access to real-time results through an online dashboard, helping them make informed decisions to enhance services and outcomes.
This pilot project will run to the end of 2026 to assess the interest and feasibility of providing a shortened version of the uSPEQ Consumer Experience Survey, and determine:
- Whether the shortened version captures key information to be useful for program planning.
- Whether organizations find the survey results useful for their quality improvement.
Participating organizations may begin collecting data immediately, real-time results available through the end of 2026. This project will include a limited number of free surveys available on a first-come, first-serve basis; secure your spot by signing up early!

Organizations are not required to use uSPEQ services to receive accreditation, and utilizing uSPEQ does not guarantee accreditation.
- uSPEQ is a department within CARF International that offers services to assist organizations in collecting feedback from their stakeholders.
- Although uSPEQ is part of CARF, the department provides services separate from accreditation. It is up to the organization to decide whether it wants to share the uSPEQ survey results with CARF surveyors during their accreditation visit.
