FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

OCTOBER 25, 2016 

Concierge Medicine Today, a news organization and the Concierge Medicine industry’s oldest national trade publication for the Concierge Medicine and Private Medicine marketplace, issued a statement, noting, “Anyone seeking medical care, along with their referring Physician, should have access to a Quality Score [a simple, three-digit number] that individually measures their local hospital facilities, and surgeons, at the Procedure Level.” According to MPIRICA Health, a Washington-based healthcare quality transparency company that scores hospitals and surgeons based on actual outcomes for specific surgeries, “Quality Scores should be designed as an objective comparison of facilities and physicians, so it is essential that the quality measurements upon which the score is based are themselves objective, and that the underlying data is adjusted to account for providers who take on higher-risk cases.”
