Hoag Advantage: Center of Excellence
Hoag has been designated as a Center of Excellence in Robotic Surgery (COERS™) by the Surgical Review Corporation. Surgical Review Corporation provides accreditation, consulting, education, and data for surgeons and facilities to advance the safety and quality of care for their patients.
Hoag is the only integrated multi-specialty minimally-invasive team of its kind in California. Hoag’s specialized gynecologic team is helping you heal like never before. And with our state-of-the-art da Vinci robots “on staff,” you will be back to healthy much faster. When it comes to minimally invasive gynecology surgery, Hoag is committed to providing superior patient care.
The Center of Excellence in Robotic Surgery (COERS) program was developed to recognize surgeons and facilities worldwide performing robotic procedures and achieving defined standards for patient safety and care quality. This commitment includes having specialty-specific credentialing and privileging guidelines in robotic surgery.
To earn the COERS designation, surgeons and hospitals must partner together and demonstrate a cross-organizational commitment to robotic surgery. Hoag provided information on all aspects of its robotic surgery program and processes, including data on its surgical outcomes. The application, site inspection and evaluation process is rigorous to ensure that the safest, highest quality of care is delivered to minimally invasive gynecologic surgery patients.
