You're not going quite far enough -
Medical Practitioners and Medical Institutions should be required by law to document outcomes, provide information about disputed outcomes, and update the information on a periodic basis.
And tampering with the information should carry heavy punishment, including jail time for the practitioner and officers of the institution.
Actions like the recent cover-ups in the VA hospitals about wait times leading to deaths should be nearly impossible to hide from the public eye.

You'd need to take account of differences in patients lest you discourage doctors from treating the more unhealthy. You also need to alter the way we define and punish malpractice.
