Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska is providing money for two Omaha hospitals to improve patient outcomes after surgery.
The insurance company has paid $35,000 each to Creighton University Medical Center and Methodist Hospital. The money will cover the facilities’ licensing fee to participate in an improvement program through the American College of Surgeons. The program helps hospitals identify pre-operative risk factors and reduce mortality rates, among other things.
The insurance company’s medical director William Minier says it strives to support local hospitals in improving patient care.
Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Nebraska’s contribution covers this year’s program fees for the hospitals and part of the fee for the next two years.
