Fortune and PINC AI ranked the best teaching hospitals in the U.S. based on data from CMS and public community health focus.
The publication examined 203 major teaching hospitals and compared public data from Medicare cost reports, Medicare Provider Analysis and Review, core measures and patient satisfaction as well as the Hospital Compare website data. The rankings also took community health into consideration based on three areas pitched by the Bloomberg American Health Initiative and Center for Health Equity at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health:
Providing healthcare and preventative services
Partnering with local organizations for critical programs
Being an anchor institution for economic and social progress
Fortune split the teaching hospital rankings into major teaching hospitals and smaller teaching hospitals.
