The Community Value Index (CVI) was created by Cleverley & Associates of Worthington, Ohio, to provide a measure of the value that a hospital provides to its community. Cleverley & Associates is recognized nationally for their work in evaluating hospital finances and community investment. The CVI is composed of eight measures that assess a hospital's performance in three areas:

• Financial viability and plant reinvestment
• Hospital cost structure
• Hospital charge structure.

Fundamentally, the CVI suggests that a hospital provides value to the community when it is financially viable, is reinvesting back into the facility, maintains a low cost structure, and has reasonable patient charges. By analyzing federal government data collected on Olympic Medical Center by CMS, the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Olympic Medical Center achieved the Community Value Index Top 100 Hospital award.
Based on strictly objective data, Olympic Medical Center reached the Top 100 list nationwide and was one of only 3 hospitals in Washington State to receive this award.
