Measuring and Reporting Patient Care Quality

Quality patient care, dedication to patient satisfaction and rigorous attention to patient safety are hallmarks of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

Because we believe that people can make better decisions about their healthcare if they have accurate information, we have made a commitment to reporting publicly how Cedars-Sinai ranks on a range of quality standards and benchmarks.

Our quality is measured in patient satisfaction scores, continuous clinical performance monitoring, medical outcomes, ongoing research and academic programs, and receipt of major designations and awards.

In this section of the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center website, we provide accurate, up-to-date, comprehensive data on our performance in key areas and, when possible, comparisons to other medical centers, nationally, statewide and locally.
