Why this Information is Important to You
When deciding where to receive health care, you and your doctor need to feel confident that the choice is right for you. One important consideration is the quality of care. Are patients receiving the most appropriate and effective care? Is the care timely and focused on your needs as a patient? Is it safe? This kind of information can be hard to find — and harder still to understand and use.
Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) is committed to providing understandable, usable, and timely information on our quality and safety record — information that will help you make sound decisions and give you peace of mind. On this site, you can see quality measurements we use internally to assess how we are doing, how our quality of care compares to that of other similar organizations (when that data is available), and what we are doing to improve the care we deliver to our patients. This data may be only one factor in your decision, but it is an important one.
Note: The information in this site is not provided as medical advice, does not establish a doctor-patient or other relationship, and is not intended nor should be assumed to guarantee a specific result. BIDMC recommends that you talk to your physicians about any questions or concerns you may have about this information.
