Patient-safety grades for Forsyth and Wake Forest Baptist medical centers were unchanged in a key analysis this spring that had expanded COVID-19 data.
The Leapfrog Group, which did the analysis, is a national nonprofit organization founded by larger employers and private health-care purchasers.
Leapfrog discloses grades based on 27 healthcare categories for more than 2,600 hospitals nationally, with the latest report coming out Thursday. Leapfrog has been providing grades since 2012.
Its semiannual reports are considered as a key healthcare provider measuring stick. Its overall and individual category grades can reflect multiple years of review.
Forsyth retained an A grade for the fifth consecutive report.

Novant Health Inc. said Thursday that it will spend $222 million to build a critical-care tower at Forsyth Medical Center projected to open in late 2024.
The tower is the largest investment by Novant for its main Triad hospital and is the second phase of an overall $403.4 million project at the Winston-Salem hospital.
Chad Setliff, president of Novantâs greater Winston-Salem market, said the system âdoes not anticipate additional mega projects at Forsyth for the foreseeable future. Setliff defined mega projects as being more than $10 million in capital investments.
The tower will be built on the site of the hospitalâs Rehabilitation Center, which will be torn down. The tower is projected to open 24 months after that demolition is completed.
