I agree with Beula. Weighting the scores before making comparisons is the best approach to ensure you're comparing apples to apples. Otherwise, you might end up with skewed results that don't accurately reflect the hospitals' performance.

This question seems pretty straightforward. It's asking about how to compare hospitals or clinics within a system when the service case mix is similar. I think the answer is B - scores should be weighted before comparisons are made among hospitals.
