The Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, is the No. 1 hospital in the U.S. for diabetes and endocrinology, according to the 2023-2024 Best Hospitals rankings released by U.S. News & World Report.
This year’s ranking added several changes to the methodology, including the introduction of outpatient outcomes in key specialty rankings and surgical ratings; expanded inclusion of other outpatient data, increased weight on objective quality measures; a reduced weight on expert opinion and more.
“A recent survey of U.S. News users revealed more than four in five (84%) consider a hospital’s quality metrics to be important factors when deciding where to seek treatment for a serious medical issue,” Ben Harder, chief of health analysis and managing editor at U.S. News & World Report, said in a press release. “Consumers want useful resources to help them assess which hospital can best meet their specific care needs. The 2023-2024 Best Hospitals rankings offer patients and the physicians with whom they consult a data-driven source for comparing performance in outcomes, patient satisfaction and other metrics that matter to them.”
The top five U.S. hospitals for diabetes and endocrinology according to the 2023-2024 Best Hospitals rankings are:
- Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota
- NYU Langone Hospitals
- New York-Presbyterian Hospital-Columbia and Cornell
- Houston Methodist Hospital
- Northwestern Medicine-Northwestern Memorial Hospital
“We are honored that Mayo Clinic is once again the nation’s top-ranked hospital across the most specialties,” Gianrico Farrugia, MD, Mayo Clinic president and CEO, said in a press release. “Our staff work tirelessly to deliver the highest level of care to every Mayo Clinic patient. Today’s recognition is a testament to them and their daily commitment to providing hope and healing to those in need, and to their creativity, ingenuity and drive to create the future of healthcare.”
U .S. News & World Report named 22 hospitals to its national Honor Roll. The hospitals were selected based on their excellence across multiple clinical specialties. All five institutions included in the top five for diabetes and endocrinology were also part of the publication’s Honor Roll.
The U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals specialty rankings include objective measures such as risk-adjusted mortality rates, patient experience, level of nursing care and how successfully each hospital helps patients get back home. The Best Hospitals ranking for overall performance, specialties, states and metro areas are constructed by evaluating each hospital’s performance using data provided by CMS, American Hospital Association, professional organizations and medical specialists. The publication’s procedures and conditions ratings are based entirely on objective quality measures.
