title: Keys to success: pinpointing what works to improve hospital care.
abstract: In the quest to achieve better care, hospitals need to consider several factors that can mean the difference between success and failure. In a new report from the Commonwealth Fund, researchers sought to underscore these "ingredients for success" by studying what they considered four high-performing hospitals across the country: Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston; El Camino Hospital in Mountain View, CA; Mission Hospitals in Asheville, NC; and Jefferson Regional Medical Center in Pittsburgh.
