LGH Named Top 100 Hospital in U.S.
Lancaster General Hospital has been named among the 100 Top Hospitals in America for the seventh time in the last nine years, an achievement shared by only a handful of hospitals across the nation.
The 100 Top Hospitals: National Benchmark for Success Study is conducted by Solucient and looks at five areas: clinical outcomes, patient safety, operational efficiency, financial stability and growth.
Research data comes from Medicare records and includes thousands of the nation’s hospitals. More about the Solucient study can be found at www.100tophospitals.com.
“The 100 Top Hospitals honor affirms Lancaster General Hospital’s standing as a high-quality hospital capable of meeting the healthcare challenges of today and the future,” says Thomas Beeman, Lancaster General President and Chief Executive Officer.
In the past few months, Lancaster General Hospital was named by US News & World Report as one of the 50 best hospitals in America in five specialties; was honored for the third year in a row by HealthGradesTM for superiority in patient safety, and was named among the 50 Best Places to Work in Pennsylvania for the fifth year in a row.
