The Colorado Business Group on Health (CBGH) is a purchaser-led, multi-stakeholder non-profit coalition committed to collaboratively improving the healthcare value proposition for all Coloradans and their communities.
CBGH has been the regional leader for Leapfrog since the inception of the Leapfrog Hospital Safety Survey and Hospital Safety Grades.
CBGH heavily supports the initiatives of The Leapfrog Group in order to promote the safe, efficient, and effective delivery of hospital care. CBGH adopted the Never Events policy and demonstrates the Leapfrog “Lives and Dollars Lost Calculator” to employers in Colorado. CBGH continually works with, and encourages its non-reporting hospitals, both urban and rural to complete the Leapfrog Hospital Safety Survey each year.
Leapfrog is the gold standard for national patient safety and other hospital quality information that is unobtainable from any other source. CBGH proactively delivers the message about hospital transparency and brings actionable data to Colorado employers.
Purchasers - whether employers or individuals -- continue to focus on the value of healthcare, which we can only ascertain by first determining quality and safety. Leapfrog continues to provide this critical information for hospitals and purchasers alike.
