Northside Hospitals Named to Georgia Quality Honor Role


Northside Hospital-Atlanta, Northside Hospital-Cherokee and Northside Hospital-Forsyth each placed high on Georgia Hospital Association’s Partnership for Health and Accountability Core Measures Honor Roll. Selection to the Honor Roll depends on clinical data provided by the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). Collected from October 2012 to September 2013, this information helps to measure whether hospitals are adhering to recommended clinical practices and complying with core standards. These three hospitals are among 25 hospitals in Georgia to be named to the Chairman’s category, the highest on the list, making it the 22nd consecutive quarter that Northside has received Honor Roll distinctions. According to the hospital’s leadership, Northside continues to prioritize the delivery of high quality care and the protection of patient safety.
