The Right Hospital
Your risk of complications and death can be many times higher at one hospital than at another just down the road.
Here’s what you need to know to find the right hospital:
1
Doctors and Hospitals are Linked:
Doctors have admitting privileges at only certain hospitals — so when you choose a doctor, you are choosing a hospital.
2
Care Quality Varies. A Lot:
Some hospitals deliver significantly better care than others when it comes to specific conditions and procedures.
3
You Can Minimize Risk:
If you need hospital care, use our industry-leading ratings to make sure your doctor can treat you at a hospital rated at least three stars in your area of care. The difference to your health can be dramatic.
