Cardiac Study-Annual Reports

Mass-DAC, under contract with the Bureau of Health Care Safety and Quality in the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, has created annual reports summarizing the quality of care provided by all the Commonwealth of Massachusetts state licensed cardiac surgery programs since 2002 and angioplasty programs since 2003. The provision of these data is part of a broad, statewide initiative to increase accessibility of health care data to consumers, policy makers, and providers. These reports provide residents information about the relative performance of cardiac surgery and angioplasty programs as an aid to decision making, and to provide hospitals in the Commonwealth with key information to help drive quality improvement.

The full text of the published annual reports may be downloaded using the links in the Published Reports table columns “Cardiac Surgery-CABG” and “PCI“.  A short summary of key findings for each report is provided in the link under the “Key Findings“column.  All files are published using the portable document format (pdf) and may be viewed using the free  Adobe Acrobat Reader.
