An immediate jeopardy warning, however, does not necessarily equate to poor ratings in hospital rating and rankings programs. Four hospitals that have been cited since December earned a B grade in The Leapfrog Group’s 2024 spring safety grades.
Here are the Leapfrog safety grades of seven hospitals hit with immediate jeopardy warnings — all of which have since been lifted — in the last year:
NYC Health + Hospitals/Woodhull in New York City’s Brooklyn borough received a D.
Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia received a B.
Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania-Cedar Avenue in Philadelphia received a B.
Carilion Roanoke (Va.) Memorial Hospital received a C.
Good Samaritan Medical Center in Brockton, Mass., received a C.
Mission Hospital in Asheville, N.C., which is owned by HCA Healthcare, received a B.
Providence Milwaukie (Ore.) Hospital received a B.
Northlake Behavioral Health System in Mandeville, La., didn’t receive a grade since it is a behavioral health hospital. Leapfrog does not assign safety grades to critical access hospitals, freestanding children’s hospitals, mental health facilities, federal hospitals, or long-term care and rehabilitation facilities.
