    RECOGNIZING BAYLOR REGIONAL MEDICAL CENTER FOR THE 2013 MALCOLM 
                    BALDRIDGE NATIONAL QUALITY AWARD

  (Mr. SAM JOHNSON of Texas asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. SAM JOHNSON of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize 
Baylor Regional Medical Center at Plano on their latest accolade--the 
2013 Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award, which is the Nation's 
highest Presidential honor for performance excellence through 
innovative practices and visionary leadership.
  For nearly a decade, Baylor Plano has provided north Texas with high-
quality and compassionate care. Their superior patient satisfaction 
rate and dedication to training the best and the brightest go 
unmatched. Baylor Plano's success and patient-centered care is a 
testament to the endless possibilities when you have choice and freedom 
on your side.
  It is an honor to congratulate Baylor Plano's employees, medical 
staff, and volunteers for doing their part to keep Texas' bigger and 
better reputation intact. I wish them continued success.
  God bless you, and I salute you.
