The Leapfrog Group published 2026 ratings for a number of hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), totaling more than 6,000 facilities nationwide. This includes more than 2,400 hospitals, representing over 80 percent of all inpatient beds in the United States, and more than 3,900 ASCs.
Leapfrog Hospital Survey results are derived from hospitals' voluntary participation in the 2026 Leapfrog Hospital Survey. ASC ratings are derived from three sources: Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) data, voluntarily uploaded and verified accreditation information submitted by facilities and voluntary reporting through the 2026 Leapfrog ASC Survey 2.0.
These published results also mark the launch of Leapfrog's ASC Public Reporting Program, which reports safety and quality information for ambulatory surgery centers nationwide. Hundreds of ambulatory surgery centers voluntarily participated by uploading and verifying accreditation information, submitting the Leapfrog ASC Survey 2.0, or both.
Publicly reported results are updated monthly to reflect the latest available data. Hospitals and ASCs can submit Survey data through November 30, 2026, the late submission deadline for the 2026 Leapfrog Hospital Survey and ASC Public Reporting Program.
In 2026, Leapfrog also introduced the Full Transparency Badge to recognize hospitals and ASCs that voluntarily complete, affirm and submit all sections of their respective Leapfrog Surveys.
