AdventHealth Redmond was identified as one of the nation's 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals™ according to an independent quality analysis based on a balanced scorecard provided by PINC AI™and reported by Fortune.
To be considered, each hospital had to provide various forms of cardiovascular care offered at their facility. For the ranking, they were evaluated by bed size, teaching status and performance metrics.
“We take tremendous pride in this recognition,” said Isaac Sendros, AdventHealth Redmond president and CEO. “Our devoted team of providers and caregivers show up every single day to create positive patient outcomes, and we will continue to remain committed to being Northwest Georgia’s heart care leader for years to come.
Compared to peer hospitals, those in the 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals™ operated at lower cost and had better outcomes, recording significantly higher inpatient survival rates, fewer patients with complications, lower readmission rates and up to nearly $10,000 less in total costs per patient case.
These outcomes add up to meaningful differences. According to the study’s analysis, if all hospitals operated at the level of this year’s top performers, there could be 7,600 fewer deaths due to heart disease, 6,700 fewer bypass and angioplasty patients who suffer complications, and more than $1 billion in inpatient costs could have been saved for the 2024 study year.
“Hospital and health system leaders are focused on raising the quality and value of cardiovascular care,” said Leigh Anderson, Premier’s chief operating officer and the leader of PINC AI™. “A selection as one of the 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals™ is a great honor and demonstrates the importance of hospitals tackling cardiovascular disease – one of America’s leading causes of death. As one of the 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals,™ AdventHealth Redmond has achieved high-quality cardiovascular care that has directly led to significantly improved patient outcomes, with fewer readmissions and complications.”
