Eight hospitals managed by United Surgical Partners International (“USPI”) have been named as “Top Performers on Key Quality Measures” by The Joint Commission, a leading accreditor of healthcare organizations in America.

To be named a Top Performer, a hospital must reach a performance of 95 percent or above on a single, composite score that includes all the accountability measures for which it reports data to The Joint Commission. The recognition is designed to support facilities achieving excellence in measurable performance and quality care processes. The following eight hospitals received this special recognition:

“We are extremely proud of these hospitals for achieving this distinctive recognition by The Joint Commission. We thank the medical staffs and employee teams for their commitment to patient-focused care,” stated David Zarin, M.D., Senior Vice President of Medical Affairs at USPI.

“Making the Top Performers list is no easy feat,” commented The Joint Commission President Mark R. Chassin, M.D., F.A.C.P, M.P.P., M.P.H. “I salute these organizations for their hard work in attaining excellence. By consistently using evidence-based treatments, their patients are getting better hospital care.”
