...The One-Minute Pundit

Hmmm, this is interesting:

Medical records show New York-Presbyterian had a death rate of 3.93 percent for coronary bypass operations performed in 2001 -- higher than the 2.18 percent overall rate for the 35 hospitals in the state that perform them.

However, U.S. News & World Report magazine listed New York-Presbyterian as the best hospital in New York for heart care and seventh best nationwide.


Who's at fault, the hospital -- or U. S. NEWS?

(Glad the surgery went well, by the way.)
