Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade
The Leapfrog Group, a leading nonprofit watchdog organization on hospital quality and safety, has awarded EvergreenHealth an "A" rating for patient safety for Fall 2024. This is our twelfth consecutive "A" rating, 2019-2024.
Leapfrog's Hospital Safety Grades score hospitals across the country on how safe they keep their patients from medical errors, injuries, accidents and infections.
The Safety Grade uses more than 30 national performance measures from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the Leapfrog Hospital Survey, and information from other supplemental data sources. Taken together, these performance measures produce a single letter grade representing a hospital's overall performance in keeping patients safe from preventable harm and medical errors.
