It represents the results ofa survey of such programs conducted by the American HospitalAssociation (AHA) under a 1972 contract (No. MI- 24315) with the Bureau of Health Resources Development!' A companion directory,Allied Health Educa- tion Programs in Junior and Senior Colleges, 1973,is now being developed by the Bureau. Together, these two directories will providethe most comprehensive guide to allied health training programs currently available. This publication was prepared in BHRD's Resource AnalysisStaff, Howard V. Stambler, Chief, under the direction of DavidOhaneson, Project Officer of the AHA contract. Bernard Ferber, Sc.D.,former Director of Research Services, American Hospital Association,was the Project Director for the contract. Lorraine Richter, Director,Division of Survey Research; Andrew Korsak, Research Assistant; andother members of the AHA staff are to be thanked for their effortsin conducting the survey and in developing the directory. Both the AHA and BHRD also wish to thank the responding hospitals, without whose help thisdirectory could not have been developed. The work on the survey was initiated in the Division of Manpower Intelligence which was a component of the Bureau of Health Resources Development (BHRD) until March 1, 1974 when it was dissolved in conjunction with the reorganization of the Bureau. iii A CONTENTS PREFACE INTRODUCTION SURVEY METHODOLOGY I.

    The Seventh Annual HealthGrades Hospital Quality in America Study Is Geography Our Health Destiny? October 2004 The Seventh Annual HealthGrades Hospital Quality in America Study Is Geography Our Health Destiny? Executive Summary Since 1998, HealthGrades has studied the quality of care at the nation’s nearly 5,000 hospitals and published the results of its annual research on the Web to assist consumers in choosing a hospital. For the first part of this study, the Seventh Annual HealthGrades Hospital Quality in America Study analyzed the most recent three years of risk-adjusted mortality and complication rates available and provides each hospital with a one-, three- or five-star quality rating for each of more than 25 procedures and diagnoses, from heart attack to knee replacement to pneumonia. This study shows considerable differences in quality among the nation’s hospitals. Results of the seventh annual study are available at www.healthgrades.com. For the second part of this study, HealthGrades analyzed the quality of hospital care for the 25 most heavily populated metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) [including consolidated metropolitan statistical areas (CMSAs)]1. This analysis, comparing risk-adjusted mortality rates for Medicare patients from 2000 to 2003, found that inhospital mortality rates have declined significantly, although the degree of quality improvement varied significantly by metropolitan areas across cardiac diagnoses and procedures and the treatment of pneumonia. The diagnoses and procedures covered by this study include: · Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery (CABG) · Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) · Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) - Heart Attack · Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) · Community Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) Key findings of this study include: 1.
