Jupiter, FL – August 16, 2023 − U.S. News & World Report, the trusted source in hospital rankings and consumer advice, has named Jupiter Medical Center a 2023-2024 High Performing hospital for Stroke, Colon Cancer Surgery, Lung Cancer Surgery, Heart Failure, Knee Replacement, and Leukemia Lymphoma & Myeloma. This is the highest award a hospital can earn for U.S. News’ Best Hospitals Procedures & Conditions ratings.
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.
“The accolade from U.S. News & World Report is tremendous recognition for Jupiter Medical Center and our team of medical experts,” says Amit Rastogi, MD, MHCM, President and CEO of Jupiter Medical Center. “Our dedicated caregivers consistently provide our patients with exceptional care, and are focused on providing world-class quality, safety and patient experience. Our entire team is unwavering in its commitment to the highest quality of care and outcomes to our growing region as we continue to expand services.”
For the 2023-2024 Best Hospitals rankings and ratings, U.S. News evaluated more than 4,500 hospitals across 15 specialties and 20 procedures and conditions.
“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.”
The U.S. News Procedures & Conditions methodology is based entirely on objective measures of quality such as survival rates, patient experience, and how successfully each hospital helps patients get back home. For more information, visit Best Hospitals.
