The Leapfrog
Group is a voluntary program that is aimed at mobilizing employer
purchasing power to alert America’s
health industry that big leaps in health care safety, quality and customer
value will be recognized and rewarded. Among other initiatives, Leapfrog works
with its employer members to encourage transparency and easy access
to health care information as well as rewards for hospitals that have
a proven record of high quality care.
You can search the Leapfrog hospital information by zip code, city, or state and view
each hospital’s progress at implementing the Leapfrog-recommended quality and
safety practices by looking at the circles in the chart and comparing them to
the explanation on every page. Hospital participation in the Leapfrog survey
process is strictly voluntary. The
website also shows hospitals that were invited to complete the
Leapfrog Hospital Survey but decided not to do so.
