Summerlin Hospital Wins Consumer Choice Award

Summerlin Hospital Medical Center has been selected by the National Research Corporation (NRC) as a 2008-09 Consumer Choice Award winner. The award identifies hospitals which healthcare consumers have chosen as having the highest quality and image in more than 250 markets throughout the U.S.

"This award is just one indicator of how Summerlin Hospital Medical Center is performing as a healthcare facility," says Karla Perez, Vice President and Group Director for The Valley Health System. "We recognize that consumers have choices when it comes to making healthcare decisions, and we are pleased that Las Vegas has chosen Summerlin Hospital for this recognition."

Ginny Martin, President of NRC's Healthcare Market Guide Division, said winners of this award are determined by consumer perceptions on multiple quality and image ratings collected in the company's Healthcare Market Guide Ticker study. "These Consumer Choice Award winners exemplify the dedication it takes to provide quality healthcare to their communities, and we are pleased to honor them through the eyes of their patients."

The NRC surveyed more than 200,000 households representing more than 400,000 respondents in order to determine which hospitals provide the highest quality of care in their metropolitan service areas. Their answers were then weighted and tabulated to form the list of top hospitals. The margin of error in the survey is + or - 0.2 percent.

Consumer Choice Award winners for 2008/09 can be found in the September 29 issue of Modern Healthcare.
