Intermountain Health has been named to the Fortune and PINC AI (formerly IBM Watson) 15 Top Health Systems list for 2023 for consistently delivering exceptional care. Intermountain Health ranked 3rd in the category of large health systems.

The prestigious list recognizes and highlights health systems whose practices and procedures serve as a model to others for improving care and saving lives.

“The first value across our health system is being leaders in clinical excellence, and this prestigious honor places Intermountain Health among the most esteemed heath systems in the nation in this arena,” said Rob Allen, president and CEO of Intermountain Health. “This award highlights the dedication and incredible work of leaders and teams across Intermountain’s 64,000 caregivers.

Based on the data of the study it’s estimated if all health systems performed at the same level as those on this year’s list more than 200,000 additional lives could have been saved and more than 177,000 additional patients could have been complication free in 2023.

Compared to systems not featured on this year’s list, the highest performing health systems had 21 percent fewer deaths, five percent fewer patients with complications, 21 percent fewer healthcare associated infections, and half a day shorter average length of stay in a hospital.

Unlike other ranking systems, participation in the 15 Top Health Systems study is not solicited. The PINC AI program uniquely combines factors across four areas, such as a healthcare system’s quality of care, financial stewardship, safety performance, and patient experience.

The list is created using publicly available data, forming a comprehensive scorecard which helps identify the top health systems in hospital care, management and leadership.

Ahanmisi inks 3-year extension with SMB

SAN Miguel Beer solidified its backcourt depth by signing shooting guard Jerrick Ahanmisi to a three-year extension deal. “Jerrick is a young and talented player, and we definitely see him as an important part of SMB’s future,” SMB team manager Gee Abanilla told The Manila Times in confirming Ahanmisi’s new contract. The 10th overall pick of Magnolia in the 2020 PBA Draft is already making his presence felt in the Beermen’s title bid in the Season 50 Governors’ Cup, where he averaged 10.3 points, 2.3 rebounds and 3.3 assists. The Beermen are currently tied with the NLEX Road Warriors at joint top spot in Group A before the tournament took a break. “He’s already contributing to the team as a combo guard, and we believe there’s still a lot more that we can bring out of him,” said Abanilla. “We have a lot of talent on this team, so the challenge for the coaching staff is to continue developing each player and bring all those individual talents together into one cohesive unit.” ”With Jerrick’s three-year extension, we now have the time to continue developing his game and help him reach the full potential that we believe he has,” he added. The 28-year-old Ahanmisi is coming off his first ever stint with Gilas Pilipinas in the Asian Games, where the Philippines failed in its bid to defend the men’s basketball crown in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan. The former Adamson University gunner, who won the Three-Point shootout in the All-Star Weekend this past summer, was shipped to San Miguel by Terrafirma, along with Paolo Hernandez in exchange for Chris Miller, veteran Juami Tiongson and the Beermen’s 2028 second round draft pick.

China prodigy wins 3rd gold as North Korea weightlifters roar

Nagoya, Japan — China's 13-year-old swimming prodigy Yu Zidi sealed a hat-trick of Asian Games titles on Wednesday, as North Korea won their first two golds thanks to their powerhouse women weightlifters. Towards the end of the fourth full day of action in Aichi-Nagoya, China were easily top of the medals table with 47 golds. Second were the hosts Japan on 15, with South Korea third with eight. The schoolgirl Yu will be remembered as one of the faces of the Games after her eye-popping exploits in the pool. If she maintains her current trajectory the teenager will be a major medal threat at the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics. Yu, who turns 14 next month, powered to a dominant victory in the women's 400m individual medley in a Games-record 4min 28.56sec. It gave her a clean sweep from her three individual events, following victories in the 200m butterfly and 200m individual medley, also in Games-record times. It was a reflection of China's dominance in the pool this week, winning 21 of the 28 golds so far. But for all her success, Yu says there is still room for improvement. "I gained a lot from these Asian Games but there were also some regrets," she said after the race. The teenager stood in wide-eyed amazement when a reporter suggested she had made it look easy. "Definitely not," she replied. Tears of joy North Korean weightlifter Ri Song Gum gave her country their first gold of the Games, and in style, setting three world records in the women's 49kg class. Kang Hyon Gyong made it a golden double for North Korea's women weightlifters by winning the 53kg class in equally dominant fashion. Ri, who stands a mere 140cm (4ft 7ins) tall, joined an elite club of four weightlifters who have won three Asian Games golds. The 28-year-old was emotional as her country's anthem was played at the medal ceremony. Ri's exceptional achievement was cheered to the rafters in a lively atmosphere, made all the more raucous by a large number of Japanese North Korean fans waving flags. Ri hauled 94kg above her head in the opening snatch discipline, one kilogram more than the previous world standard of 93kg. She then smashed the clean and jerk world mark of 115kg twice by hoisting 116kg and then 121kg. Her total of 215kg also obliterated the world mark by 7kg. "The reason I got this gold is for the feelings of my home country, the people had huge expectations for me," Ri told reporters. "I wanted to lift my country up on these two small shoulders." - 'Powering to gold' - Athletics began with the men's and women's half-marathon race walks. China's Shi Shengji won the men's and compatriot Yang Liujing triumphed in the women's. "My name means 'power', so here I walked with power," said Yang. Asked about her country winning both the men's and women's disciplines, she replied: "I think it's normal for us to sweep the (gold) medals." In badminton, world number one An Se-young won her match but South Korea lost 3-1 to Japan in the women's team event semi-finals. An, the reigning world and Olympic champion, was not best pleased by her father in the crowd. "Parents usually cannot bear to watch their own children compete, but my dad seems to watch perfectly happily, which is a bit much," she said. "I am out there running myself into the ground and he is just cheering away in comfort." China won the men's team event in gymnastics, ahead of Japan. "Second place. The most honest feeling is that it is very frustrating," said Japan's Daiki Hashimoto. AFP
