Leapfrog to rate hospital outpatient settings, ASCs

Leapfrog will collect data on ambulatory surgery centers with a voluntary survey


The Leapfrog Group, a nonprofit aimed at improving care quality and patient safety, is expanding its public reporting to outpatient settings, according to an article on the Becker's Hospital Review website.

Leapfrog will collect data on ambulatory surgery centers with a voluntary survey.
