MARYLAND — A new report has named six hospitals in Maryland among the best in the world.
Newsweek said it partnered with Statista to release its annual ranking of the world's best hospitals. The series began in 2019.
The researchers evaluated 2,400 hospitals across 30 countries, including the United States, much of western Europe, Australia, 10 Asian countries, Chile and Malaysia.
In Maryland, the following hospitals earned a spot among the world’s very best:
- Rank: 3
- City: Baltimore
- Worldwide rank: 4
Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center
- Rank: 44
- City: Baltimore
University of Maryland Medical Center
- Rank: 83
- City: Baltimore
Luminis Health Anne Arundel Medical Center
- Rank: 90
- City: Annapolis
- Rank: 111
- City: Towson
MedStar Good Samaritan Hospital
- Rank: 332
- City: Baltimore
Newsweek listed out the top 250 hospitals worldwide. The 10 best were highlighted particularly for their “intriguing use of artificial intelligence to advance medical discoveries.”
Hospitals were scored based on an online survey of about 85,000 medical experts and publicly available data from post-hospitalization patient surveys on their general satisfaction, Newsweek said. Hygiene and patient/doctor ratios were also considered, along with a Statista survey on whether hospitals use “Patient Reported Outcome Measures,” which are surveys filled out by patients about their experience.
