Thanks Don - tomorrow will release the 10 lowest scoring facilities; if you are curious about a specific facility let me know and we'll see if we can get that to you.
At the unlikely chance of seeing them low on the WCFAT, it would be interesting to see where our Kaiser hospitals rank (west coast/Hawaii). The % of WC patients is infinitesimal, so maybe the data isn't there. Also, it will be interesting to see if College Hospital (Costa Mesa, CA) is on tomorrow's list.
Hi Don - the data on clinical outcomes, patient safety, patient and community engagement and efficiency is derived from CMS' High Value Purchasing database which is based on Medicare reporting; cost data is either from CMS or state databases where more relevant to workers' comp. We do have data on Kaiser facilities.
Re College Hospital, I'll have to wait till tomorrow...
Excellent insight, Joe. Are you able to share more/all of the ranked list?
