Benefits and Hazards of Reporting Medical Outcomes Publicly
Abstract
As marketplace competition becomes the dominant force for change in the delivery of health care in the United States, its effects on the quality of health care are being sharply debated. There is increasing demand for more data on the quality of care to be made publicly available.1,2 For seven years, the New York State Department of Health has been collecting data to assess the quality of care provided to patients undergoing coronary-artery bypass grafting (CABG), and for five years it has made measures of quality publicly available.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
