Looking for Extra Help?
The Leapfrog Hospital Survey Webinar Series is designed for hospitals that would like a more interactive approach to understanding the survey, measure specifications, and scoring algorithms. The Webinar Series is held monthly from March to December for an annual fee of $325. These monthly webinars are provided in addition to Leapfrog’s Survey Help Desk which continues to provide free technical assistance to all hospitals.
Leapfrog's Rating Programs
Leapfrog rates hospitals through its two main initiatives: the Leapfrog Hospital Survey and the Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade. If you receive hospital communications from Leapfrog, you may have seen information on both of these programs, perhaps even around the same time.
The infographic at right is meant to help you understand the differences between these two programs.
