BayCare Health System today released Vital Impact, its 2024 Physician and Provider Annual Report. The report highlights the hard work and dedication of BayCare’s physicians and clinical teams, making it one of the nation’s best-performing health care systems and the largest not-for-profit health care system serving West Central Florida.   

BayCare is continually recognized for our approach to quality, safety and experience, looking for new ways to improve quality and lower costs using new care models and technologies. 

BayCare's continued commitment to excellence in health care and growth ensures that patients across West Central Florida have access to the care they need because of our ability to attract world-class physicians, implement the newest medical interventions and provide exceptional care. Roughly one in every three health care services in the region is performed through BayCare.    

Clinical excellence – BayCare’s north star – continues to shine alongside our renowned compassionate care. Among the notable milestones in 2024:

  • For the Provider as Customer Survey, a 4.35 engagement score places BayCare at the 79th percentile nationally, reflecting a highly committed workforce. 
  • Year-over-year growth in engagement signals improvement and a commitment to provider satisfaction. 
  • Collaboration with our physicians helped 10 of BayCare’s eligible acute-care hospitals receive an “A” grade from Leapfrog, the patient safety group’s highest rating. 
  • The launch of our BayCare Clinical Institutes. 

We are not done. BayCare is continuing to expand our academic medicine and research programs, including our June announcement of our strategic collaboration with Northwestern Medicine and the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. We also are on track to expand our graduate medical education residency positions to more than 650 by 2029, to continue bringing top-notch physicians to our region.
