Newark Beth Israel Makes Newsweek ‘Best Hospital’ List For 2022

NEWARK, NJ — Newark Beth Israel Medical Center was recently designated as one of the “World’s Best Hospitals-USA” by Newsweek. It’s the fourth-consecutive recognition for the busy Newark hospital.

Newark Beth Israel – which ranked 235th among the top 250 U.S. hospitals – was one of only five in New Jersey to make the 2022 list, which also includes The Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, Johns Hopkins and Massachusetts General.

To reach its results, Newsweek used three data sources:

• “Over 80,0000 medical experts (doctors, hospitals managers, health care professionals) in 27 countries were invited to participate in the online survey. Participants were asked to recommend hospitals in their own country as well as in other countries. Recommendations for own employer/ hospital were not allowed.”
• “Results from patient experience surveys. Publicly available data from existing patient surveys was used to analyze patient experience. Patient surveys are typically conducted by insurance companies among patients after hospitalization. Examples of survey topics include: general satisfaction with hospital, recommendation of hospital and satisfaction with medical care.”
• “Medical key performance indicators (KPIs) on hospitals e.g., data on quality of treatment and hygiene measures. KPIs from a variety of public sources were collected for most countries. KPIs differ between the countries. Examples of included data are data on quality of care for specific treatments, data on hygiene measures and patient safety and data on number of patients per doctors and per nurse.”

“It is truly an honor to receive this designation for a fourth time,” said Darrell Terry, president and CEO of Newark Beth Israel Medical Center and Children’s Hospital of New Jersey.

“This designation reflects our steadfast commitment to delivering world class, high quality, safe care to our patients,” Terry said.
