BRMC Quality Data

Bedford Regional Medical Center is now voluntarily reporting data on the quality of patient care for use by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). The voluntary reporting is in conjunction with the National Hospital Quality Initiative supported by CMS, federal agency of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services that runs Medicare.

We are committed to "Improving Lives With High Quality, Compassionate Care".

The results of the quality data the Bedford Regional Medical Center is reporting will give consumers information about the hospital's performance in three common and serious medical conditions.
