McLaren-Central Michigan hospital in Mount Pleasant recently won an award for outstanding quality among McLaren hospitals.
The President's Award is given annually to a McLaren partner that shows excellence in health care quality and fiscal leadership. It was announced by president and CEO of McLaren Health Phil Incarnati, and is the first time in the three years of the award that it's been given to a McLaren hospital.
"McLaren–Central Michigan is an extraordinary hospital," Incarnati says. "It earns outstanding quality scores, expands its physician team and services continually, and is fiscally strong because of its ongoing attention to costs. We are proud to have McLaren–Central Michigan as part of the McLaren family."
The Mount Pleasant hospital will share the award with McLaren Health Plan, the system's health insurance subsidiary. The two will split $100,000 as the monetary part of the award.
Incarnati says the reasons McLaren-Central was chosen include its strong leadership, and staff, nurse, doctor, volunteer and board cohesion among all parties.
"McLaren–Central Michigan combines the services of a large, urban hospital with the quality, compassion and personal excellence of a regional hospital," he says. "This hospital is truly committed to the well-being of its community."
