    It's About Time... You Knew the Facts. Trauma Care in Georgia

    FACT SHEET – GEORGIA It’s About Time... You Knew the Facts. Trauma Care in Georgia • In Georgia, only 15 of the state’s 152 acute-care hospitals are designated trauma centers. • Georgia should have approximately 30 designated trauma centers in strategic locations to adequately address trauma and emergency preparedness needs, according to state health officials. • The 15 current centers are dispersed among ten counties and large areas are not adequately served. Millions of Georgians live and work at least two hours away from timely trauma care, even in urban and suburban areas. • Several Georgia counties still do not have a 911 emergency system. • Of the estimated 40,000 cases of major trauma each year in Georgia, only about 10,000 are treated in designated trauma centers. • Georgia’s trauma death rate is significantly higher than the national average: 63 of every 100,000 people compared to the national average of 56 per 100,000. • If Georgia’s death rate improved to the national average, it would mean a difference of as many as 700 more lives saved every year. • Georgians are four times more likely to die if involved in a vehicular crash in a rural area, than in an urban area, according to Georgia Department of Transportation statistics. State health officials say poor access to trauma centers in rural areas is a major factor. • The state’s first trauma center, Floyd Medical Center, opened in 1981. • In Georgia a “designated” trauma center must voluntarily meet guidelines established by the state and the American College of Surgeons’ Committee on Trauma.

This chart shows both the original penalties released by Medicare in August and the corrected numbers Medicare released on Sept. 28. Maryland hospitals were not penalized because the state has a unique reimbursement arrangement with Medicare. In addition, hospitals with fewer than 25 cases in each of three categories-- heart failure, heart attack and pneumonia--are exempt from the penalties.
