Greenwich Hospital Named Top Performer In National Quality Study

GREENWICH, CT — Greenwich Hospital has been recognized for the second year in a row as a top performer in the 2025 Bernard A. Birnbaum, MD, Quality Leadership Study by Vizient, Inc., the hospital announced last week.

One of 21 hospitals in the complex care medical center cohort, Greenwich Hospital was recognized for demonstrating excellence in delivering high-quality care based on the Vizient Quality and Accountability Study, conducted annually since 2005.

"It’s an honor to receive this recognition from Vizient," said Greenwich Hospital President Robert Blenderman, in a news release. "We pride ourselves on our extraordinary patient care and our staff works tirelessly to provide safe, quality care and to find creative solutions to further enhance the patient experience."

This year, 1,220 participating hospitals were segmented into seven cohorts for the Vizient Quality and Accountability Study.

The study measures performance on the quality of patient care in six domains: safety, mortality, effectiveness, efficiency, patient centeredness and variation in care.

The study factors in measures from the Vizient Clinical Data Base and includes performance data from the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems survey and the CDC’s National Healthcare Safety Network.

The Vizient Quality and Accountability Study helps participating hospitals and health systems understand their performance against their peers and identifies structures and processes associated with high performance in quality and safety across a broad spectrum of patient care activity, the hospital noted.

The recognition period is for work spanning July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025.

"We extend our sincere congratulations to this year’s top-performing hospitals recognized in the Vizient Quality and Accountability Study,” said David Levine, chief medical officer, Vizient, in a news release. "These organizations have demonstrated an exceptional commitment to delivering safe, effective, and patient-centered care. Their performance reflects the highest standards in clinical quality and operational excellence, and we are proud to honor their achievements."
