Adrian, MI – ProMedica recently announced that Bixby Hospital, in Adrian, received an A+ overall score in the new Lown Institute Hospitals Index.
The index evaluates clinical care as well as community impact in terms of health equity and inclusivity.
ProMedica Bixby Hospital is among the top 10 highest-ranking hospitals in Michigan. The ranking system compared the performance of over 3,200 hospitals across the country, measuring three categories: civic leadership, value of care, and patient outcomes.
According to the Lown Institute, its new index is the first hospital ranking to take into account how much hospitals spend on community benefits, as well as the proportion of low-income patients they serve. It also is the first hospital ranking to take into account how well hospitals serve people of lower income or education levels, and people of color.
