Analysis of data from the Hospital Quality Alliance national reporting system shows that performance varies among hospitals and across indicators…. [P]erformance scores for acute myocardial infarction closely predicted performance scores for congestive health failure but not for pneumonia…. [O]ur findings indicate that quality measures had only moderate predictive ability across the three conditions. Although a high quality of care for acute myocardial infarction predicted a high quality of care for congestive heart failure, the former was only marginally better than chance for identifying a high quality of care for pneumonia. These data do not provide support for the notion that ‘good’ hospitals are easy to identify or consistent in their performance across conditions
