2024 Spine Surgery Recognition
Saint Francis Hospital has been named by Healthgrades as one of America’s 100 Best Hospitals for Specialty Care™ in the area of spinal surgery. It is the only hospital in Oklahoma to receive the award.
The 2024 Spine Surgery Excellence Award recognizes hospitals with superior clinical outcomes in back and neck surgeries and spinal fusion.
"Saint Francis is thrilled to be recognized by Healthgrades in the important area of spinal surgery," said Brenda Nance, vice president of Quality for Saint Francis Health System. "Our clinical teams work hard every day to ensure patients receive the care they need and are able to lead fuller lives because of the services they receive at Saint Francis."
To be considered for an award in spine surgery, a hospital must be evaluated based on Medicare data for patients using inpatient hospital services. Hospitals are evaluated based on spine surgeries with spinal fusion, surgeries without fusion and any complications that patients might experience.
By offering easy access to objective performance measures, Healthgrades gives consumers the information they need to find a hospital with a top rating in their procedure or condition.
