Thomson Reuters Top 50
According to Thomson Reuters, High Point Regional Health System is one of the Top-50 Cardiovascular Hospitals in the nation and the only hospital in North Carolina to make the list. According to Thomson Reuters, hospitals were evaluated in four distinct areas: clinical outcome measures, clinical process measures, extended outcome measures and efficiency measures. Being treated at a Top-50 cardiovascular hospital could mean the difference between life and death. According to the study, if all cardiovascular providers performed at the level of this year's winners, more than 7,500 additional lives could have been saved. In addition, nearly 12,000 additional patients could be complication free and approximately $910 million could be saved.
North Carolina Awards for Excellence:
The North Carolina Awards for Excellence (NCAfE) process is a cooperative industry, academic, and government initiative to improve organizational competitiveness and to provide recognition for performance excellence. Examiners are trained to evaluate, comment upon, and score each participant's criteria response and prepare feedback reports for participants. The program was initially formed in 1989 as a foundation through an executive order of the governor. It was transferred to the Industrial Extension Service (IES) at North Carolina State University in 2001.
