MHP Major Hospital Recognized as a 2019 Top 100 Rural & Community Hospital
in the U.S.
The Chartis Center for Rural Health Releases Top 100 List
(February 12, 2019) Shelbyville, IN --- MHP Major Hospital in Shelbyville, Indiana has been named one of the Top
100 Rural & Community Hospitals in the United States by
The Chartis Center for Rural Health for the third year in a row. Regarded as one of the industry’s most
significant designations of performance excellence, the annual Top 100
Rural & Community Hospitals award is based upon the results of the
Hospital Strength INDEX® from iVantage Health Analytics.
“We’re honored to receive this recognition for the third consecutive
year,” said Major Health Partners President and CEO, Jack Horner.
“Our staff works very hard to deliver the best care possible to
our patients. This award is factored on excellence in managing risk, securing
better outcomes, increasing patient satisfaction, operating at a lower
cost than our peers and achieving higher quality. We focus on these things
every day and I’m proud of our organization. With the adaptation
of a more preventative care model, I see these components of care becoming
even more defined at MHP.”
Hospitals recognized as a Top 100 facility scored in the top 100 among
all rural and community hospitals nationally. Now in its ninth year, the
INDEX leverages 50 rural-relevant indicators across eight pillars of hospital
strength (i.e. Inpatient Market Share, Outpatient Market Chare, Cost,
Charge, Quality, Outcomes, Patient Perspective and Financial Stability)
to determine an overall score for each hospital. Each of the INDEX’s
50 indicators is culled from publicly-available data sources.
“In an era of increased complexity and uncertainty, Top 100 hospitals
have established themselves as a bellwether for rural provider performance,”
said Michael Topchik, National Leader of The Chartis Center for Rural
Health. “Top 100 status is a real indicator of how proactive these
hospitals are when it comes to pushing for performance improvement in
areas such as quality, outcomes, patient safety, market share and finance.”
