You compare hip replacement quality by asking what the center's/surgeons complication rate is. How many are they having to go back and redo, a revision as they call it. It would be nice if these rates were publicly accessible in a easy to search database. As it stands now, hospitals market themselves on size, volume, and fancy buildings all of which don't mean much compared to complication rates. |

That will make surgeons avoid complicated cases due to the risk of failure and its consequences for their careers.
