From retrospective to real time: Transforming CMS Star Rating and Leapfrog objectives into bedside action
Tuesday, February 17th, 2026 | 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM CT
Hospitals are under constant pressure to perform in quality programs like CMS Star Ratings, Leapfrog, VBP and HRRP, yet most manage these initiatives retrospectively, through lagging metrics and after-action reviews.
The delay creates blind spots: frontline teams don’t know about the 10% of patients who drive the majority of CMS Star Ratings and other quality programs, or how to intervene in time to change outcomes.
This webinar shares how leading hospitals are connecting enterprise quality targets with real-time patient identification, risk stratification and care team activation, while patients are still in the bed.

Key takeaways:
- Translate enterprise priorities into patient-level flags staff can act on daily
- Identify cohorts driving readmissions, mortality, and cost before discharge
- Link stratified risk to workflows across rounding, discharge and care coordination
