Leapfrog grades 2,862 hospitals ‘A’ to ‘F.’ How did yours fare?

Advisory Board November 17, 2022

The Leapfrog Group on Tuesday released its fall 2022 Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grades, with around 30% of hospitals earning an “A” grade.

Methodology

For its fall 2022 report, Leapfrog assigned “A” to “F” letter grades to 2,862 general acute care hospitals across the United States based on how well the facilities protected patients from “preventable medical errors, accidents, injuries, and infections,” according to the organization’s news release.

Hospitals were assessed using 22 evidence-based measures of patient safety, which includes CMS Medicare PSI 90 Patient Safety and Adverse Events Composite. These measures were selected by a panel of patient safety experts who analyzed the data and determined the weight of each measure by its evidence, opportunity for improvement, and impact.
