    New Methodology

    "In the three decades since U.S. News began evaluating hospitals, we periodically have revamped our measures to enhance the decision support our rankings and ratings provide to patients," Ben Harder, managing editor and chief of health analysis at the magazine, said in a statement. "This year we revised the methodology to incorporate new measures of patient-centered care and to enhance how we account for differences in hospitals' patient populations. The new model provides a more comprehensive assessment that is useful to patients, families, and their medical professionals."

    Due to the changes in methodology this year, U.S. News advises against making comparisons to past numerical ranks.

    The 2019-2020 rankings compared more than 4,500 hospitals across 25 specialties, procedures, and conditions. This year, 165 hospitals were nationally ranked in at least one specialty (compared to 158 last year), and 569 hospitals were ranked among the best regional hospitals in a state or metro area based on their performance in delivering complex and common care.

    In the 2019-2020 Best Hospitals: Specialty Rankings, as was the case for the prior 3 years, the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center holds the No. 1 spot in cancer, the Cleveland Clinic is No. 1 in cardiology and heart surgery, and the Hospital for Special Surgery is No. 1 in orthopedics.
