OKLAHOMA CITY – A non-profit group released a report listing the safety grades for the hospitals in Oklahoma.

What do you think of Oklahoma’s hospitals? Do you think they are safe?

Thanks to the Leapfrog Group, a nonprofit founded by employers and health care providers, you may have your answer.

The Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade uses national performance measures from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the Leapfrog Hospital Survey, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the American Hospital Association’s Annual Survey and Health Information Technology Supplement.

Taken together, those performance measures produce a single letter grade representing a hospital’s overall performance in keeping patients safe from preventable harm and medical errors.

The Safety Grade includes 27 measures, all currently in use by national measurement and reporting programs.

The Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade methodology has been peer-reviewed and published in the Journal of Patient Safety.

According to the Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade list, none of the hospitals in Oklahoma received a failing grade.
