Morristown Medical Center Among Nation’s Greatest

NEW YORK, NY — A new report says Morristown Medical Center is among the greatest in the nation. Becker’s Healthcare, which publishes business and legal information for the healthcare industry, released its annual “100 great hospitals in America” list Wednesday.

The group says the hospitals that made the list have received national recognition for excellence in clinical care, patient outcomes and staff and doctor satisfaction. The list is in alphabetical order and are not to be taken as rankings.

“These institutions are industry leaders that have achieved advanced accreditation and certification in several specialties,” the group said on its website. “The list also includes industry innovators that have sparked trends in healthcare technology, hospital management and patient satisfaction.”

Becker’s Healthcare has a portfolio that includes trade publications, such as the magazine Becker's Hospital Review.

The hospital list is based on the group’s analysis of ranking and awards agencies, including the latest U.S. News & World Report rankings, star ratings from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, letter grades from The Leapfrog Group and Truven Health Analytics.
