The ratings are based on three major categories: cancer screening tests, care for patients 60 years or older and treating people with existing heart disease. All of Wisconsin’s ranked groups were rated at or above the national average in Consumer Reports’ overall score.
Consumer Reports published similar ratings of Massachusetts physician groups in May 2012 and Minnesota groups in August 2012. The ratings were made possible by a grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation in an effort to improve the quality of healthcare in 16 targeted communities, including Massachusetts, Minnesota and Wisconsin.
