The Joint Commission Recognizes 118 Community Health Systems-Affiliated Hospitals as Top Performers on Key Quality Measures®
11/17/15
Only 1,043 – or approximately one-third – of eligible
Of the 118 CHS-affiliated hospitals recognized this year, 101 have appeared on the list more than once. Twenty-five CHS-affiliated hospitals have achieved the recognition for the five consecutive years it has been awarded, out of 117 hospitals nationwide to do so.
“Being named a Top Performer is the result of all physicians,
nurses and caregivers in a hospital following established evidence-based
practices that improve outcomes for their patients,” said Wayne T.
Smith, chairman and chief executive officer of
Top Performers were required to meet three stringent performance criteria based on 2014 accountability measure data, according to the Joint Commission:
- Achieve cumulative performance of 95 percent or above across all reported accountability measures;
- Achieve performance of 95 percent or above on each and every reported accountability measure with at least 30 denominator cases; and
- Have at least one core measure set that had a composite rate of 95 percent or above, and within that measure set, achieve a performance rate of 95 percent or above on all applicable individual accountability measures.
