Kingman Regional Medical Center

Kingman Regional Medical Center has earned an “A”?Hospital Safety Grade from The Leapfrog Group,?an independent national nonprofit watchdog focused on patient safety.?Leapfrog assigns an “A,” “B,” “C,” “D” or “F” grade to general hospitals across the country based on over 30 performance measures reflecting errors, accidents, injuries and infections, as well as the systems hospitals have in place to prevent them. KRMC is the only hospital in the region to earn an A from The Leapfrog Group. ? “Patient safety is the top priority for Kingman Regional Medical Center,” said Heath Evans, Chief Executive Officer, KRMC.?“The Leapfrog A rating combined with the recent CMS 4-Star rating are indications of the hospital’s commitment to patient safety.” ? “Achieving an ‘A’ Hospital Safety Grade is a significant accomplishment for Kingman Regional Medical Center,” said Leah Binder, president and CEO of The Leapfrog Group. “It reflects enormous dedication to your patients and their families, and your whole community should be proud. I extend my congratulations to Kingman Regional Medical Center, its leadership, clinicians, staff and volunteers for their tireless efforts to put patients first.” ? The Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade stands as the only hospital ratings program focused solely on preventable medical errors, infections and injuries that kill more than 500 patients a day in the United States. This program is peer-reviewed, fully transparent and free to the public. Grades are updated twice annually, in the fall and spring.

Kingman Regional Medical Center’s Imaging Services now include the advanced capabilities of GE HealthCare’s Omni Legend 32 PET/CT scanner system. PET, or positron emission tomography, is an imaging method that involves using radioactive tracers to assess disease within the body. This type of scan is often used in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer because it can detect cellular changes in tissues before other modalities like CT and MRI. The Omni Legend system features an all new, all digital platform that can better detect small lesions with enhanced image quality. Its efficient performance can potentially reduce both the duration of the procedure and the dose of radioactive tracer given to the patient. The Omni Legend’s upgradable platform will enable KRMC to keep up with ongoing advances in the technology. Other features include: Ultra-high image resolution? Customizable scanning, enabling tailored settings for each patient A large field-of-view for faster whole-body imaging? Scalable platform for different types of tracers and procedures KRMC is the first health system in Arizona to install the Omni 32 Legend System. “Our team works hard to stay on top of advancements in the field and provide the best in diagnostic imaging to our patients,” said Casey Reed, director of Imaging Services. “We’re proud to bring new capabilities to the community so our patients can feel confident in the care they receive at KRMC.”

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services recently named Kingman Regional Medical Center a 4-star hospital for Overall Hospital Quality. This distinction places KRMC among the top 24.6 percent of hospitals across the country. KRMC is the only hospital in this region of Arizona to receive a 4-star overall rating. ? The Overall Hospital Quality Star Rating analyzes 46 publicly reported CMS measures divided into 5 groups: Patient Experience, Mortality, Safety of Care, Timely and Effective Care and Readmissions. CMS reviews these measures to calculate the star ratings. In total, more than 2,800 hospitals across the country reported data to CMS for consideration.? ? CMS began publishing star ratings in 2007. Input from stakeholders and members of the public helped shape the methodology for rating Overall Hospital Quality. ? “The star rating is an excellent method to compare the quality of hospitals across the nation based on publicly reported data gathered by CMS,” said Heath Evans, CEO, Kingman Regional Medical Center. “Our commitment to provide exceptional healthcare to our patients and community is reflected in the rating.”
