THERE AREN'T MANY DECISIONS MORE IMPORTANT THAN CHOOSING THE RIGHT HOSPITAL to provide care for yourself or a loved one. To help, Newsweek has partnered with Statista for its annual ranking of the world's best hospitals, a series that began in March 2019. This year, the list includes data on 2,400 hospitals across 30 countries. For the first time, Chile and Malaysia have been added to the ranking, which also includes the U.S., most of Western Europe and Scandinavia, 10 Asian countries, Australia and countries elsewhere in the Americas.
The data is organized by nation but also lists the top 250 hospitals worldwide, the top 10 of which we've highlighted-particularly their intriguing use of artificial intelligence to advance medical discoveries. Each hospital's score is based on an online survey of more than 85,000 medical experts and public data from post-hospitalization patient surveys on their general satisfaction. The score also considers metrics on things like hygiene and patient/doctor ratio as well as a Statista survey on whether hospitals use Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMS), which are standardized questionnaires completed by patients to assess their experience and results. With so much at stake for individuals and institutions, reliable data is key. The Newsweek-Statista rankings provide crucial insights for patients, families and health care executives looking for profiles of an industry that will generate $4.24 trillion worldwide in 2024.
