(NOVEMBER 2, 2023) The University of Vermont Medical Center is the number one hospital in the state, according to data collected by Newsweek, in partnership with Statista, which published its ranking of America’s Best-in-State Hospitals for 2024.

The list includes 600 of the country’s leading hospitals in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. From June to July 2023, Statista conducted an online survey featuring tens of thousands of health care professionals, including doctors and hospital managers. The score each hospital received was broken down into four main categories—recommendations from peers, patient experience, hospital quality metrics, and Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) implementations. Among the factors the survey took into account were quality of care, patient counseling, and accommodations and amenities, as well as mortality, safety, readmission, timely and effective care, and accreditation data. Newsweek provided details about how the rankings were calculated in the article “The Best Hospital in Every State.”
