Mon Health Medical Center named in U.S. News' Best Hospitals 2023-24 for Heart Failure & COPD (High Performing)

Mon Health Medical Center has been named by U.S. News & World Report to its 2023-2024 Best Hospitals as a High Performing hospital for Heart Failure and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). This is the highest distinction a hospital can earn for U.S. News’ Best Hospitals Procedures & Conditions ratings.

Mon Health Medical Center is among the elite 44% that earned an award. The annual Procedures & Conditions ratings are designed to assist patients and their doctors in making informed decisions about where to receive care for challenging health conditions or elective procedures.

“We are honored to be recognized as highest performing for heart failure and COPD. Such national recognition would not be possible without the caliber of the medical staff, nurses, clinical staff, and colleagues who lead in delivering best in class care that is always patient centered,” said David Goldberg, President and CEO of Mon Health System and Executive Vice President of Vandalia Health.

A hospital’s congestive heart failure score is based on patient outcomes, volume, advanced heart programs, and more. The COPD score is based on patient survival, discharging patients to home, nurse staffing, and more. The collaborative teams of providers at Mon Health System continue to advance the health of the communities they serve through compassionate and dedicated cardiology and pulmonary care.

U.S. News evaluated more than 2,500 hospitals across 15 specialties and 21 procedures and conditions. Hospitals awarded a “Best” designation excelled at factors such as clinical outcomes, level of nursing care, and patient experience.

“For 34 years, U.S. News has provided data-informed rankings to help patients and their doctors find the best hospital to treat their illness or condition,” said Ben Harder, Chief of Health Analysis and Managing Editor at U.S. News. “Fewer than half of evaluated hospitals earned any High Performing rating. Hospitals that are High Performing have excelled in providing high quality care in specific procedures and/or conditions.”
