Hi there,
Got directed to this website by my friendly neurosurgeon the other day.
You can find out how your hospital does in comparison to other hospitals
in your state or immediate area in the way you treat specific disease
entities.  The government has been collecting statistics for a number of
years now and uses those numbers to predict outcomes (I assume in
routine -- possibly in best practice).  What you will find is the way
that you stack up against the predicted outcome statistics.  These are
figures based on mortality rates.  My friend sent me there to find
support for a proposed protocol I am trying to get adopted at our
hospital.  I found support in the numbers to add to the other things I
have researched and written up.

Not all body systems/disease processes are available.  And not all
hospitals are covered, but over time we will be able to find it all.
After they've got all the hospitals covered, he expects that we will be
able to find the same information on individual physicians.  A whole new
tool for patients and others to find out if they should look elsewhere
for treatment.

Try it.  You'll like it.
