Healthgrades names its 250 best hospitals for 2025


Healthgrades on Tuesday released its annual "America's Best Hospitals Awards," which recognizes the top 250 hospitals in the country.

About the list

The America's Best Hospitals list encompasses three awards:

  • America's 250 Best Hospitals, which represent the top 5% of hospitals in the United States
  • America's 100 Best Hospitals, which represent the top 2% of hospitals in the United States
  • America's 50 Best Hospitals, which represent the top 1% of hospitals in the United States

To determine the winners, Healthgrades used Medicare data from 2021-2023 to evaluate roughly 4,500 hospitals on how well they performed in 30 of the most common procedures and conditions.

"While there are several factors to consider when looking for a doctor, hospital quality is one that can have a critical impact on a patient's overall quality of care," said Brad Bowman, CMO and head of data science at Healthgrades. "That's why Healthgrades remains committed to helping patients find top-performing hospitals in their area. We want all patients to feel as confident and equipped as possible when it comes to choosing a doctor and hospital."

 

According to Healthgrades, if all hospitals performed similarly to those on the America's 250 Best Hospitals list, 174,081 lives could have been saved.
