Paradox: "Despite being rated as one of the best hospitals, Hospital X has a higher mortality rate than average." Which resolves?

A Hospital X has fewer nurses
B Hospital X specializes in treating the most severe and complex cases that other hospitals cannot handle
C Hospital X is old
D The ratings are wrong

✓ Correct Answer: Option B

If Hospital X treats the sickest patients, a higher mortality rate is expected even with excellent care. Patient severity, not quality, explains the rate.
