Consumer Choice Award For the sixth time in seven years, consumers have named Froedtert Hospital as the most-preferred hospital in southeastern Wisconsin, earning Froedtert the National Research Corporation’s 2008-2009 Consumer Choice Award.
The award recognizes hospitals across the United States that healthcare consumers consider to have the highest quality and image. Froedtert was one of just three hospitals in Wisconsin to make the list, achieving top ranking for best overall quality, best doctors, best nurses and best image and reputation.
The organizations selected for the Consumer Choice Awards are chosen by people who live in the communities the hospitals serve. To determine the winners, NRC conducts an annual Healthcare Market Guide survey of more than 400,000 U.S. consumers.
“As the region’s only academic medical center, we take our leadership role very seriously and believe we should set the standard for quality care,” said William D. Petasnick, president and CEO of Froedtert Hospital. “Being consistently chosen for this award underscores the confidence our patients and our community have in the care we provide.”
The NRC is an industry leader in healthcare performance measurement and improvement. Its annual Healthcare Market Guide survey is the nation’s most comprehensive study of its kind. For more information, visit hcmg.nationalresearch.com
