Report Cards Are In For Montana's Hospitals

/
One page of St. James Healthcare's Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade report. Overall the facility earned an B.
Last week, several Montana hospitals were graded on patient outcomes and safety measures by the nonprofit group Leapfrog. Most hospitals scored well, but other Leapfrog grades show room for improvement.
Emily Coyle with the Montana Healthcare Purchasers Association explained the Leapfrog grading system is meant to help consumers compare hospitals’ patient outcomes when deciding where to receive care or surgery.
“So the hospital safety grade uses over two-dozen measures including rates of preventable errors, injuries and infections, and whether hospitals have systems in place to prevent them.”
