Great
Community Hospitals
2016
Becker's Hospital Review is pleased to release the 2016 edition of its 100 Great Community Hospitals list.
For the purposes of this list, Becker's defines a "community hospital" as one with fewer than 550 beds that have minimal
teaching programs. Critical access hospitals were excluded from this year's list — our list of 50 Great Critical Access
Hospitals will be released in July.
Some of the hospitals on this list are not far from major metro areas, while others serve more rural communities.
Regardless of their location, or their independence or affiliation with a major system, these hospitals are a vital part of
their respective communities.
The Becker's editorial team selected hospitals for inclusion based on rankings and awards from such organizations as
iVantage Health Analytics, Truven Health Analytics, Healthgrades, CareChex, the American Nurses Credentialing Center
and the Leapfrog Group. Included organizations have earned recognition from one or more of these organizations.
Note: This list is not exhaustive, nor is it meant to be a ranking — organizations are listed in alphabetical order.
