The assigned rating is based on a number of factors, including CHOP’s reputation among children’s hospitals in terms of clinical strength, its leading market position in the greater Philadelphia area and strong operating margins. CHOP has a $2 billion revenue base and is the largest independent pediatric hospital in the country.

CHOP also has challenges, such as a large ambulatory care project that will elevate capital spending in the short term.
