Statista PROMs implementation survey
To account for the increasing importance of value-based care in healthcare systems worldwide, Statista is surveying hospitals regarding their Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) implementation status. PROMs are defined as standardized, validated questionnaires completed by patients to measure their perception of their functional well-being and quality of life related to an episode or experience of care.
Newsweek and Statista recognize the importance of this topic for global advancements in health care delivery and, together with the guidance of Statista’s global board of medical experts, have developed a survey about the implementation and use of PROMs across different specialties and departments in hospitals. The implementation of PROMs adds a patient-outcome focused dimension and improves the comprehensiveness of the rankings.
The upcoming survey period for the PROMs implementation survey will begin in autumn 2024 and will be open for participation here.

Data collection
The list of America’s Best Maternity Hospitals is based on three pillars.
(1) From January to February 2024, Statista invited hospital managers and medical professionals with knowledge about maternity hospitals to an online survey. The survey was available to medical professionals to participate on Newsweek.com. Additionally, participants were invited via e-mail. Participants were asked to recommend maternity hospitals and to rate them in the areas of: Perinatal care, operative obstetrics, patient education & counseling, accommodation & service, and nurse & midwife staffing. Recommendations for own employer were not allowed.
(2) Hospital quality metrics data relevant to maternity care from Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), The Joint Commission (TJC) and the Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA) were collected.
(3) Additionally, publicly available data from patient surveys was used to analyze the overall patient experience in the hospital.

Evaluation
To be eligible for the analysis, maternity hospitals must report their performance data and receive at least a 2-star rating from CMS. Additionally, the hospitals must meet the minimum thresholds for the aforementioned pillars. Based on pre-defined thresholds for each of the three pillars, awarded hospitals were grouped into two categories (5 ribbons/4 ribbons).
5-ribbons: Reputation score: >69%, Patient experience score: >82%, Quality metrics score: >84%
4-ribbons: Reputation score: > 66%, Patient experience score: >79%, Quality metrics score: >77%
