Becker's Healthcare September 9, 2024
Becker’s has compiled a list of the hospitals patients would recommend in each state using Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems data from CMS.
CMS created 10 HCAHPS star ratings based on publicly reported HCAHPS measures.

Here are the hospitals that received 5-star ratings for patient recommendations:
