“We are honored to be recognized by Money for the great care we provide, and also for our price transparency and the work we’ve done to ensure that our patients can make informed choices about the cost of care,” said Janice Nevin, M.D., MPH, president and CEO of ChristianaCare. “This acknowledgment reflects the love and excellence of our caregivers, as we serve together to support the health and wellbeing of our patients and community.”
According to its published methodology, Money analyzed over 30,000 data points to create a list of the 75 top hospitals in the United States, considering factors such as physician experience and price transparency. ChristianaCare received A grades in both price transparency and physician quality, highlighting its commitment to patient-centered care.
“We are relentless in our pursuit of quality,” said Kert Anzilotti, M.D., MBA, system chief medical officer and president of the Medical Group of ChristianaCare. “I am incredibly proud of the way our caregivers constantly strive to make incremental improvements to a system that is already recognized among the best and safest in the nation. The goal is always the health and safety of our patients.
“Thank you to all our caregivers—it’s their work that achieved this recognition,” he said.
‘A’ grade for price transparency and Physician Quality
ChristianaCare launched its price transparency website in 2018, at the time exceeding the requirements set forth by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Since then, the website has been continually enhanced to ensure that it serves as a valuable tool for consumers looking for clear, accurate information about health care pricing.
ChristianaCare’s price transparency website includes 300 common shoppable services that consumers can search by keyword. The website also lists prices of ChristianaCare services by insurance provider for self-pay. ChristianaCare was among the first health systems in the region to be verified by Turquoise Health, a third-party price transparency comparison platform.
“ChristianaCare recognizes the critical importance of managing health care resources responsibly and equipping our community members with the knowledge necessary to make informed choices about their care,” said Rob McMurray, chief financial officer.
“Our price transparency website serves as an invaluable resource in our commitment to providing clear and accessible information. Additionally, our dedicated customer service team is readily available to assist with any inquiries and guide patients through their individual estimates and billing processes.”
The rankings also factored in high-performing doctors and other providers based on their level of experience with certain procedures. Money’s main partner in this project was health care transparency firm Denniston Data, which helped collect, analyze and rank those statistics.
“Our health care providers truly deserve this recognition,” said Anzilotti. “Our exceptional caregivers have earned it by delivering high-quality care to our neighbors, expanding their expertise and consistently striving for excellence in their daily interactions. We are incredibly proud of their dedication and the positive impact they have on our neighbors’ lives.”
