LEXINGTON, KY, USA, April 20, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ -- For the third consecutive year Park Nicollet Methodist Hospital was recognized as a 100 SafeCare Hospitals® by The SafeCare Group® for low infections, low readmissions, low complications, high patient satisfaction, and high value.

100 SafeCare Hospitals® represent the nation’s top performing hospitals in evidence-based metrics of Medical and Surgical Infections, 30-Day Mortality rates, Complications rates for Medical and Surgical Care, Patient Satisfaction, 30-Day Medical and Surgical Readmissions, and overall value.

100 SafeCare Hospitals have achieved an exemplary level of performance in the comprehensive, evidence-based metrics of the Centers of Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) value-based program (HVBP), readmissions reduction program (HRRP), and acquired complications reduction program (HACRP). Hospitals that perform poorly on these quality, safety, and efficiency metrics receive a financial penalty from the government. Only about two percent of US hospitals earn the prestigious 100 SafeCare Hospitals® distinction, and the top 50 hospitals represent the top one percent of US hospitals for excellent performance in the evidence-based metrics of HVBP, HRRP, and HACRP.

“While all US hospitals achieving improvements deserve recognition, those achieving 100 SafeCare Hospitals distinction are leading the way,” says Dr. Yisrael Safeek, MD, MBA, Chairman and CEO of The SafeCare Group®. “Congratulations to HealthPartners and Park Nicollet Methodist Hospital on achieving 100 SafeCare Hospitals three consecutive years in a row and achieving top 1% in the nation overall for low infections, low complications, low readmissions, high patient satisfaction, and best value.”

About 100 SafeCare Hospitals®
The SafeCare Group® published the first 100 SafeCare Hospitals® listing in 2013 with the mission of “Recognizing Healthcare Excellence”. 100 SafeCare Hospitals recognize hospitals that excel in evidence-based metrics of Medical and Surgical Infections, 30-Day Mortality rates, Complications rates for Medical and Surgical Care, Patient Satisfaction, 30-Day Medical and Surgical Readmissions, and value of care.
