2009 Vermont Hospital Report Card
Vermont law requires that hospitals publish annual reports containing information about quality, hospital infection rates and prevention measures, patient safety, nursing staffing levels, financial health, costs for services, and other hospital characteristics. The law also requires the Department of Banking, Insurance, Securities and Health Care Administration to publish some of that same information in a comparative format on this website.
