View the Michigan Health & Safety Coalition Consumer Report to see how Priority Health's network hospitals perform for select procedures.

A leading group of Fortune 500 companies, and other large healthcare purchasers, founded "The Leapfrog Group" by creating and committing to a common set of purchasing principles to drive leaps in patient safety.

The Leapfrog Group's goal is to mobilize employer purchasing power and initiate breakthrough improvements in the safety and overall value of health care to American consumers. It is a voluntary program aimed at mobilizing large purchasers to alert the healthcare industry that big leaps in patient safety and customer value will be recognized and rewarded with preferential use and other intensified market reinforcements.

The Leapfrog Group's mission is to trigger a giant leap forward in quality, customer service and affordability of health care of all types by:

Making the American public aware of a small number of highly compelling and easily understood advances in patient safety; and Specifying a simple set of purchasing principles designed to promote these safety advances, as well as overall customer value.
