The Sixth Annual HealthGrades Women’s Health in American Hospitals study found that the best-performing hospitals, like Community Hospital of San Bernardino, had 52% fewer maternal complications among women who had vaginal births compared with poor-performing hospitals and 76% fewer complications among women who had C-sections. Patient choice C-sections had the largest difference at 84% between best- and poor-performing hospitals.
Study findings also included the following:
- If all hospitals, among the 19 states studied, performed at the level of the best-performing hospitals from 2005 through 2007, 182,129 women may have avoided developing one or more inhospital major obstetrics complications.
- Best-performing hospitals had a 56% lower weight-stratified neonatal mortality compared to poor-performing hospitals.
- C-section rates average approximately 32% among the 19 states studied.
- Quality inconsistencies are seen when comparing states; those with the lowest complication rates have almost half the complications compared with states that had the highest complication rates.
HealthGrades analyzed approximately 13 million hospital delivery and neonate records from 2005 through 2007 in more than 1,500 hospitals in 19 all-payer states for this study and identified 218 hospitals as being five-star rated in maternity care.
