For the 20th year in a row, US News and World Report’s survey reviewed patient-outcomes data, reputation among physicians and other care-related factors and found UCLA at the top.
The 2009�10 multiplatform “America’s Best Hospitals” guide is the most extensive hospital ranking to date and can be found in U.S. News & World Report’s special August edition. The rankings are currently available online at www.usnews.com/besthospitals. Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center is also the only hospital in Los Angeles and the Southern California region that appears on the honor roll.
The magazine put 4,861 U.S. medical centers through an intensive screening process to create the 16 specialty rankings in the 2009�10 edition of the survey, which is now in its 20th year. Just 174 hospitals made it into the rankings, and only 21 entered the honor roll. The honor roll recognizes hospitals that demonstrate excellence across many specialties.
