Healthgrades released its 2021 list recognizing the top 250 hospitals in the United States, and 12 Virginia hospitals made the cut — with two breaking the top 100. The 12 Virginia hospitals are among the top 5% of the nation’s hospitals in terms of rankings.
The only Virginia hospitals to earn a spot in the top 100 (or top 2%) of all U.S. hospitals surveyed were Inova Fairfax Hospital in Falls Church and Sentara Princess Anne Hospital in Virginia Beach.
The America’s Best Hospitals list is based on hospital performance, clinical outcomes, patient safety and patient experience. Nearly 4,500 hospitals across the country are surveyed and analyzed for their treatment of 32 conditions and procedures, including heart attack, heart failure, respiratory failure, sepsis and stroke.
