Healthgrades Names America’s Best Hospitals for 2019

By Healthgrades Media Staff for Healthgrades Media

This year is the first time two awards have been consolidated into a single list that includes the top 250, 100, and 50 hospitals.

Healthgrades released its annual list Tuesday of “America’s Best Hospitals,” using clinical outcomes to identify the top 5% of hospitals nationwide.

In years past, Healthgrades released two separate awards, one for the top 250 hospitals in clinical excellence and the other for the the top 50 and 100 hospitals. But this year is the first time the two awards have been consolidated into a single list.

“Consumers have many options for care, so when hospitals prove their long-term commitment to the patient and to achieving high-quality clinical outcomes, it sets their system apart in a sea of choices,” Healthgrades Chief Medical Officer Brad Bowman said in a statement.
