University of Maryland St. Joseph Medical Center announced Tuesday that it is one of America’s 100 Best for 2023, according to new research released by Healthgrades, a marketplace connecting doctors and patients.

This achievement puts UM St. Joseph Medical Center in the top 2% of hospitals nationwide for overall clinical performance across the most common conditions and procedures. This is the 4th consecutive year (2020-2023) UM St. Joseph Medical Center is among America’s Best.

Healthgrades evaluated patient mortality and complication rates for 31 of the most common conditions and procedures at nearly 4,500 hospitals across the country to identify the top-performing hospitals. This year’s analysis revealed significant variation between America’s Best 100 Hospitals and hospitals that did not receive the distinction. Patients treated at one of the 2023 America’s 100 Best Hospitals have, on average, a 25.5% lower risk of mortality than if they were treated at a hospital that did not receive the America’s 100 Best Hospitals award.
