WEEK TWO – Leapfrog Analysis
The Leapfrog Group assigns quality scores to hospitals on an A to F scale. The federal government’s Medicare program assigns quality scores on a five-star to one-star basis.
1. Go to https://www.beckershospitalreview.com/quality/where-are-the-8-leapfrog-f-hospitals.html and choose a facility that received a grade of “F” by Leapfrog.
2. Review the chosen hospital’s report care on the Leapfrog site. As a new administrator, what three issues would be your highest priority to improve quality? What steps would you take to address these quality issues?
3. Look up your chosen hospital on the Medicare.gov hospital compare website. Is the final grade by Medicare consistent with the Leapfrog grade? Can you tell why?
