Process
Process measures look at the efficacy and timeliness of care. This includes how well hospitals provide patients with the best standard of care for common conditions or surgical procedures, how quickly hospitals treat patients with medical emergencies and how well hospitals provide preventive services. Wexner Medical Center scored above the national average in 13 of 18 measures including surgical, stroke and leg/lung blood clot care. We are working to improve our scores the other areas which are all related to reducing wait times for patients in the emergency department.
