But before you make your decision,remember that not all patients arrive at the hospital with the same level of health.And if we divide each hospital's last 1000 patients into those who arrived in good health and those who arrived in poor health,the picture starts to look very different.Hospital A had only 100 patients who arrived in poor health,of which 30 survived.But Hospital B had 400,and they were able to save 210.So Hospital B is the better choice for patients who arrive at hospital in poor health,with a survival rate of 52.5%.And what if your relative's health is good when she arrives at the hospital?
