I suspect someone related to Kaleida Health PR removed legitimate information
[edit]Here is the information I restored:
A report produced by Consumer Reports in July 2015 on the prevalence of hospital-acquired infections gave Kaleida hospitals a below average ranking in 4 of the report's 5 categories. The ranking was based on hospita-reported data provided to federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention between October 2013 and September 2014[1]
Kaleida Health was also cited by Medicare for having high rates of infections and other patient-safety problems. The Hospital Acquired Conditions Reduction Program, which was created as part of the Affordable Care Act, seeks to incentivize hospitals to improve patient safety by measuring rates of hospital-acquired infection and other patient safety metrics and then penalizing hospitals that perform poorly. As a result of this program Kaleida Health has been penalized more than $1 million in 2016 through reduced Medicare payments.[2]
I suspect it was someone related to PR because they did not attempt to discuss matters on the talk page.
Please make sure this legitimate information stays in the article. Knox490 (talk) 04:10, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
- I looked at the IP number of the person who edited the entries and the person appears to be on the staff of the Erie County Medical Center as the IP address is from that institution. The Erie Counter Medical Center is a Kaleida Health hospital. I suspect it was someone in their marketing/PR department. Knox490 (talk) 04:45, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
- The IP address used to remove the legitimate information according to edit history was 161.136.101.79 According to a free IP look up service, the IP address is from the Erie County Medical Center as can be seen at: FREE ip LOOKUP SERVICE. Knox490 (talk) 05:18, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
