TYLER – Mother Frances Hospital Tyler was named one of the nation’s 100 Top Hospitals by Truven Health Analytics, a leading provider of information and solutions to improve the cost and quality of healthcare, according to a Mother Frances news release. The Truven Health 100 Top Hospitals study identifies hospitals and leadership teams that provide the highest level of value to their communities, based on a national balanced scorecard, according to Mother Frances officials.
The 100 Top Hospitals balanced scorecard measures hospital performance across 10 areas: mortality; inpatient complications; patient safety; average patient stay; expenses; profitability; patient satisfaction; adherence to clinical standards of care; and post-discharge mortality and readmission rates for acute myocardial infarction (heart attack), heart failure and pneumonia. The study has been conducted annually since 1993. This is the fifth time Mother Frances Hospital Tyler has been recognized with this honor. “We are pleased to celebrate the fact that we’ve been able to achieve a tremendous milestone like this award,” said John McGreevy, CEO of Mother Frances Hospital Tyler and Louis and Peaches Owen Heart Hospital.
