Private hospital company, HCA International, has become one of the first in the independent healthcare sector to publish outcome data, giving patients the opportunity to see how they perform relative to other hospitals. The ‘HCA Quality Report’ (download available below), shows how HCA private hospitals in London, including The Portland, The Wellington and The Princess Grace, perform in key areas such as:
- cardiac surgery survival
- MRSA
- surgical site infections
- intensive care survival rates
- unplanned readmissions.
Much of the data confirms that HCA hospitals out-perform, or are on a par with, some of London’s most recognised acute NHS hospitals.
Full report available for download below.
