Last week, the ACS National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS NSQIP®) recognized 77 hospitals in the adult NSQIP program for achieving meritorious outcomes for surgical patient care in 2023.

“We commend all ACS NSQIP-participating hospitals because they have committed to using high-quality data to improve the surgical care of their patients. The Meritorious hospitals go a step further—not only do they use the data effectively, they also have the results to prove they are achieving optimal patient outcomes,” said Clifford Y. Ko, MD, MS, MSHS, FACS, FASCRS, Director of the ACS Division of Research and Optimal Patient Care.

ACS NSQIP-participating hospitals are required to track the outcomes of inpatient and outpatient surgical procedures in eight clinical areas; these outcomes are then analyzed by ACS and reported back to hospitals. These results will inform patient safety initiatives within the hospital and impact the quality of surgical care.
