Based on comparisons between the study winners and a peer group of similar hospitals in the study, the winners delivered better outcomes while operating more efficiently and at a lower cost. Extrapolating the results of this year&#8217;s study, if all Medicare inpatients received the same level of care as those treated in the award-winning facilities more than 7,000 additional lives and over <span class=\"xn-money\">$1.6 billion<\/span> could be saved annually, and more than 5,000 additional bypass and angioplasty patients could be complication-free.\u00a0The list of the top cardiovascular hospitals was published by Fortune.<\/p>\n<div class=\"PRN_ImbeddedAssetReference\" id=\"DivAssetPlaceHolder1\">\n<p>\n          <a href=\"https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/95470\/ibm_logo.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>\n            <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/95470\/ibm_logo.jpg\" title=\"IBM Corporation logo.

In this light, cardiovascular care with an emphasis on health equity is essential,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Kyu Rhee<\/span>, Chief Health Officer, IBM Watson Health. &#8220;The exceptional organizations on the Fortune\/IBM Watson Health 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals list are setting the standard for high quality, efficient, patient-centric care for heart disease. We believe that these top institutions are leading the effort to enhance and evolve the way we treat and prevent this disease.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Compared to similar cardiovascular hospitals, this year&#8217;s 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals winners had better results on indicators intended to measure clinical outcomes, clinical processes, operational efficiency, and financial performance. These measures evaluate inpatient and 30-day mortality, patient complications, 30-day readmission, average length of stay, 30-day episode-of-care payment, and adjusted cost per case, for acute myocardial infarction (AMI), coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and heart failure (HF) patients.<\/p>\n<p>The release of the 2021 Fortune\/IBM Watson Health 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals list also includes hospitals that currently participate in the American Heart Association&#8217;s Get With The Guidelines\u00ae (GWTG) programs, which promote evidence-based guidelines and improved patient care. The American Heart Association is the leading voluntary health organization devoted to a world of longer, healthier lives, and its GWTG programs focus on improving patient care and outcomes while adhering to the latest scientific treatment guidelines through its quality improvement registries.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Nineteen hospitals on this year&#8217;s 50 Top Cardiovascular Hospitals list have the additional distinction of meeting the criteria established by the AHA for one or more of its GWTG program recognitions for cardiovascular care. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;After 20 years of quality improvement with our Get With The Guidelines programs, we know that patient outcomes improve when medical professionals follow the most up-to-date, evidence-based guidelines. Studies have shown that consistent use of these guidelines increases survival rates and lowers patients&#8217; risk of ending up back in the hospital,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Eduardo Sanchez<\/span>, Chief Medical Officer for Prevention for the American Heart Association. &#8220;The American Heart Association&#8217;s recognition program helps identify hospitals that meet guidelines-based standards for the treatment of stroke, heart failure and heart attack, establishing a way for professionals and patients alike to have a trusted, transparent view of the daily efforts to adhere to the latest science in scenarios for every patient.&#8221;\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>\n        <b><br \/>\n          <u>Fortune\/IBM Watson Health 100 Top Hospitals List (by category)<\/u><br \/>\n        <\/b><br \/>\n        <br \/>\n        <i>* Hospitals are listed in alphabetical order.
