Results Reports

Discover how a hospital compares
to its peers and benchmarks.

How does your hospital compare with its peer group and the new benchmarks published in each Solucient 100 Top Hospitals study? Want to profile other hospitals by the 100 Top benchmarks?

The 100 Top Hospitals Results Reports provide:

*A hospital's specific scores plus benchmark and peer medians in the study

*Graphics to guide understanding where the hospital's own performance is against the benchmark medians as well as the peer group medians

*Text of the study publication, including the methodology

Each year, Solucient uses the all-inclusive Medicare billing files (MEDPAR) and the Medicare Cost Reports to evaluate US hospital performance, revealing previously unknown information on how a hospital performs against its peer group and the benchmark hospitals. These 100 Top Hospitals Results Reports offer you the best opportunity to learn how your facility can improve its care, operations, and financial results as well as how other hospitals performed as well.

You may choose as many hospitals for comparison as you wish. Each Results Reports matches a hospital's performance to its appropriate benchmark category and peer group in the selected study, giving you vital insight into where you can improve and how you compare specifically to other hospitals:
