The OnlyBoth Inc. benchmarking engines at www.benchmine.com use Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) performance quality data to generate language-based comparative insights. The lists of high-performing facilities are based on the CMS’ Hospital Compare data updated on March 21, 2019.

“We congratulate the improvement leaders among our nation’s top hospitals as determined by our benchmarking engine,” said OnlyBoth CEO Raul Valdes-Perez, PhD. “Hospital decision-makers take these ratings seriously as they indicate patients’ likelihood of returning for future care and recommending their hospitals to others. On the care side, satisfaction is also tied to improved outcomes and patient adherence to treatment plans, key considerations for choosing a provider. These hospitals have made great strides in improving patient recommendation and star ratings, which is positive for the industry as a whole.”

By focusing on comparative analytics, OnlyBoth transforms complicated data sets into understandable insights written in plain English to highlight the strengths and weaknesses of hospitals in an objective manner. All insights are made possible by OnlyBoth’s Artificial Intelligence technology, which automates the task of benchmarking while searching for solutions within a larger space of possibilities than people do.
