The Leapfrog Group is a voluntary program 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. The Leapfrog Hospital Survey is the gold standard for comparing hospitals’ performance on the national standards of safety, quality, and efficiency that are most relevant to consumers and purchasers of care. The survey is the only nationally standardized and endorsed set of measures that captures hospital performance in patient safety, quality and resource utilization. Hospitals that participate in the Leapfrog Hospital Survey achieve hospital-wide improvements that translate into millions of lives and dollars saved. Leapfrog’s purchaser members use Survey results to inform their employees and purchasing strategies. In 2014, 1,501 hospitals across the country completed The Leapfrog Hospital Survey. Leapfrog’s Hospital Safety Score® assigns A, B, C, D and F grades to more than 2,500 U.S. hospitals based on their ability to prevent errors, accidents, injuries and infections. The Hospital Safety Score is calculated by top patient safety experts, peer-reviewed, fully transparent and free to the public. A full analysis of the data and methodology used in determining grades is available online here. The newly re-launched website now includes consumer-friendly videos and tips for patients and their loved ones. A Hospital Safety Score mobile app is also available for download.
