*Statistics are based on Healthgrades analysis of MedPar data for years 2018 through 2020 and represent three-year estimates for Medicare patients only.  Due to the highly variable impact of the pandemic on hospital outcomes, Healthgrades made the decision to exclude cases with a COVID-19 diagnosis from the 2020 data in order to preserve the statistical integrity of our models and fairly evaluate clinical outcomes at all hospitals.
