Overall, according to Leapfrog, the most recent report—the first to display hospital performance since the pandemic—found that 30% of hospitals obtained an A rating, 24% received a B, 39% received a C, 7% received a D, and less than 1% received an F.
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI), and catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) are three healthcare-acquired illnesses that showed a considerable improvement in those grades. According to Leapfrog, all three illnesses peaked during the epidemic five years ago.
