Compare Hospitals, Get Better Care
By Sally Finder-Koziol
Comparison shopping ensures smart consumers get the best value—even when it comes to hospitals. Compare hospitals before you need one by visiting the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Web site. It provides information on how well the hospitals in your area care for their adult patients who have medical conditions such as heart attack, heart failure, pneumonia, and surgery.
You can select hospitals to compare in your area, then see how often those hospitals provided recommended treatments for certain medical conditions. The site also explains why certain treatments are important and outlines your rights as a patient.
