Newberry Hospital Excels in Hip Replacement and Hip Fracture Outcomes
Newberry, South Carolina (October 20, 2020) ¨C Newberry Hospital is 5-star rated for Hip Replacement and Hip Fracture
outcomes, according to new research released by Healthgrades, the leading resource that connects consumers,
physicians and health systems. Every year, Healthgrades evaluates hospital performance at nearly 4,500 hospitals
nationwide for 32 of the most common inpatient procedures and conditions using Medicare data.
This analysis shows that patients treated at hospitals receiving a 5-star rating have a lower risk of dying and a lower risk
of experiencing one or more complications during a hospital stay than if they were treated at hospitals receiving a 1-star
rating in that procedure or condition. From 2017 through 2019, if all hospitals as a group performed similarly to
hospitals receiving 5-stars as a group, on average, 218,785 lives could potentially have been saved and complications in
148,681 patients could potentially have been avoided.*
Additionally, from 2017-2019, patients having Total Hip Replacement in hospitals with 5-stars have, on average, a 75.8%
lower risk of experiencing a complication while in the hospital than if they were treated by hospitals with 1-star.
Similarly, patients having Total Hip Replacement in hospitals receiving 1-star are 4.1 times more likely to experience one
or more complications than if they were treated in hospitals with 5-stars.*
¡°Hospital quality has never been more important, and consumers are becoming more aware of the importance of
researching where they receive care before they visit a hospital for a specific procedure or condition,¡± said Brad
Bowman, MD, Chief Medical Officer at Healthgrades. ¡°Hospitals that receive a Healthgrades 5-star rating for Hip
Replacement and Hip Fracture Treatment demonstrate exceptional outcomes and their ability to provide quality care for
patients.¡±
¡°We are extremely proud of this designation and of the staff and physicians who continue to provide the best care
possible for our patients. Providing safe, quality patient centered care is paramount,¡± says Bruce Baldwin, Chief
Executive Officer of Newberry Hospital.
For its analysis, Healthgrades evaluated approximately 45 million Medicare inpatient records for nearly 4,500 short-term
acute care hospitals nationwide to assess hospital performance in 32 common conditions and procedures, and evaluated
outcomes in appendectomy and bariatric surgery using all-payer data provided by 16 states. Healthgrades recognizes a
hospital¡¯s quality achievements for cohort-specific performance, specialty area performance, and overall clinical quality.
Individual procedure or condition cohorts are designated as 5-star (statistically significantly better than expected), 3-star
(not statistically different from expected) and 1-star (statistically significantly worse than expected. The complete
