The Leapfrog Hospital Survey closes June 30 every year, and the Hospital Safety Grade letter that lands on your front page each spring and fall is built on what you submit. The hand-hygiene standard alone runs across six domains and requires a defensible direct-observation program with documented sample sizes, coverage, and feedback — not a spreadsheet rebuilt the week of the deadline.
Leapfrog Readiness layers a survey-prep workflow on top of the audit data clearPath already collects: six-domain evidence views, observation-volume tracking against Leapfrog's minimum sample sizes, unit coverage alerts, real-time feedback workflows, and a one-click Leapfrog submission packet. All shipping today in Enterprise and Ultimate.

Per-facility and per-unit gauges show observation volume vs. Leapfrog sample-size minimums, unit coverage, % compliance trend, days until the June 30 submission close, and open feedback follow-ups. Drops into the same dashboard grid you already use, scoped by the same facility / unit / time-period filters.
Leapfrog scores hand hygiene across Training and Education, Infrastructure, Culture, Monitoring, Feedback, and Knowledge and Accountability. clearPath maps your existing programs and audit data into each domain and surfaces the gaps before the survey opens, not after you've started filling it out.
One-click PDF or Excel binder for the survey reference period: monthly observation counts per unit, compliance rates, observer attribution, sample-size adequacy summary, and the six-domain evidence index. Builds the supporting documentation your patient-safety lead would otherwise spend a week assembling.
Leapfrog expects timely, individualized feedback to staff. clearPath captures observer-attributed observations at the bedside and makes the feedback loop visible: who observed, what was missed, who delivered the coaching, and when the next re-audit closes the loop on that unit.
Leapfrog's sample-size expectations vary by unit type and patient volume. clearPath flags units that are tracking below the monthly minimum early in the reference period, while you still have time to schedule additional rounds — not after the data window closes.
Every observation is time-stamped and observer-attributed, and Auditor Groups let you scope auditors out of the units they staff — supporting Leapfrog's expectation that the people being observed are not the people doing the observing.
The Leapfrog survey opens April 1 and closes June 30 each year, with the Safety Grade refresh in spring and fall. clearPath surfaces the upcoming windows on the readiness dashboard so submission prep starts in Q1, not the week of the deadline.
Trend your contributing measures across reference periods so you can see how this year's submission compares to last year's grade — and which domain moved the needle.
Leapfrog Readiness doesn't introduce a parallel data store or a separate workflow. It's a layer of submission-prep tooling sitting on top of the same audit sessions, custom audits, dashboards, and security model your team uses every day.
The hand-hygiene standard's monitoring domain is core platform — WHO Five Moments, HCP type, technique, attributes per observation. Auditor Groups roll units into programs of care so the readiness dashboard and submission packet match how IPC and patient-safety teams operate.
Each facility submits its own Leapfrog survey, but the patient-safety office wants one rollup. clearPath's facility hierarchy gives each hospital its own packet and the system office a single dashboard tracking every facility's adequacy and grade trend in one view.
Leapfrog's Children's Hospital Survey shares the hand-hygiene standard structure. clearPath's custom HCP types, custom audit templates, and unit-typed sample-size minimums adapt to pediatric, NICU, and specialty unit definitions without forking your data model.
Show us your facility hierarchy and last reference period; we'll walk you through what your readiness dashboard looks like and how the submission packet would render for your most recent Leapfrog window.
