"...country. HealthGrades analyzed and assigned quality ratings to different service areas. The rating of each service area is a combined rating of one or more medical issues (e.g., heart attack). The following descriptions show how HealthGrades calculated each of the following service area ratings. Service Area Ratings · Cardiac · Critical Care · Gastrointestinal · General Surgery · Orthopedic · Pulmonary · Stroke · Vascular Cardiac The Cardiac service area rating is based on: · Coronary bypass surgery · valve replacement surgery · Coronary interventional procedures · Heart attack · Heart failure · Atrial fibrillation The Cardiac service area rating is a weighted star average for these medical issues, based on hospital volume. The star averages are based on inhospital mortality, inhospital +1 month mortality, and inhospital +6 month mortality ratings. To receive a rating in this service area, a hospital had to provide coronary bypass surgery and have star ratings in four of the five other medical issues. Critical Care..."

"...rights reserved. May not be reprinted or reproduced without permission from Health Grades, Inc. Methodology for Women's Health The Women's Health ratings were based upon outcomes in two areas: Maternity Care (methodology described above) and Cardiac/Stroke Mortality Outcomes for Women. Hospitals had to have an overall rating from each area to be considered. Methodology for Cardiac and Stroke Mortality Ratings for Women HealthGrades analyzed the following six procedures/diagnoses (cohorts) for each hospital's female patients: · Coronary bypass surgery · valve replacement surgery · Interventional procedures (PTCA/angioplasty, stent, atherectomy) · Heart attack · Heart failure · Stroke Data Analysis For each patient cohort, HealthGrades developed a list of specific procedures (e.g., quadruple bypass surgery), a list of risk factors, and a list of post-surgical complications. These latter two lists were developed in two steps: 1. HealthGrades identified all diagnoses occurring in more than one percent of the patients for the current analysis. 2. HealthGrades used a team of clinical and coding experts..."
