Our 2018 Annual Meeting gathers Leapfrog’s constituency of employers and other purchasers, health plans, policymakers, consumer advocates, leading researchers and clinicians, and senior hospital and health system leaders. The central topic this year is best practices for rating surgery provided in hospitals or ambulatory surgery centers. As part of this, we’ll share exclusive data from Leapfrog’s new measures on inpatient hospital and surgeon volume, and offer a briefing on Leapfrog’s upcoming launch of ratings of hospital outpatient surgery and ambulatory surgery centers.
Following the Annual Meeting program, we’ll honor the achievements of the 2018 Leapfrog Top Hospitals, approximately 100 hospitals in four categories, at our annual Leapfrog Awards Dinner.
