Ten hospitals and health systems have been named among Newsweek's most trustworthy.
The publication collaborated with Statista on the ranking, now in its third year. All U.S.-headquartered companies with a revenue over $500 million were included in the study, which began with an independent survey of 25,000 U.S. residents. Participants were asked to rate companies they know across three "touchpoints": customer, investor and employee trust. In total, 97,000 evaluations were gathered. A social listening analysis was conducted for each company that gained enough evaluations. Each eligible company was researched in "various media segments of the internet" and evaluated on positive, neutral and negative mentions; more than 532,000 were gathered. Any companies involved in recent lawsuits or scandals were excluded.
The 700 companies with the highest scores were included in Newsweek's list, including 37 in the "healthcare and life sciences" industry.
