100 Great Hospitals in America | 2026
Great hospitals bring excellence to every encounter, for every patient, in every specialty, at every level of care, wielding an uncompromising commitment to safety and a culture of nonstop growth.
Becker’s is proud to release its “Great Hospitals in America” list for 2026, celebrating the institutions that have both distinguished reputation and results.
We take into account recognitions from institutions like U.S. News & World Report, Newsweek, Healthgrades, CMS and The Leapfrog Group, who have also honored these hospitals for outstanding performance across a broad spectrum of specialties.
Note: This list is not exhaustive, nor is it an endorsement of included hospitals, health systems or associated healthcare providers. Becker’s accepted nominations and completed editorial research to compile this list. Organizations cannot pay for inclusion on this list. Hospitals are presented in alphabetical order. We extend a very special thank you to Rhoda Weiss for her contributions to this list.
