2 Fig 1 Hospital rankings based on risk- and reliability-adjusted readmission rates in vs , stratified by operation type. Spearman correlation coefficients and associate P values are listed for each operation. AAA, Abdominal aortic aneurysm; EVAR, endovascular aortic repair.

3 Fig 2 Comparison of quintile ranking between and for 1576 hospitals. Shading intensity represents the magnitude reclassification; (n) represents the number of hospitals in each quintile combination. Overall, 63% of hospitals were reclassified between the 2-year groups. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jvs ) Copyright © 2014 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions
