The Leapfrog group has released a calculator that helps you determine if there are hidden surcharges that your company pays as a result of hospital errors. By shifting employees to hospitals with an “A” rating, you can decrease these hidden surcharges and protect your employees and their dependents from harm.

Hospitals are rated by a panel that uses 26 measures of public hospital safety data to give hospitals a grade of A, B, C, D or F based on expert analysis of inpatient injuries, infections and medical and medication errors.

The Alliance acts as a rollout organization on behalf of The Leapfrog Group for the state of Wisconsin. Alliance members are not considered members of The Leapfrog Group and will not be able to log into the Leapfrog website. However, we encourage you to view the Hospital Safety Scores and use the public version of the calculator to determine what you pay for hospital errors.
