Newsweek posts annual World’s Best Hospitals

Editor's Note

Three American hospitals top Newsweek’s annual World’s Best Hospitals list, published on March 2. These hospitals have learned to adapt to new and existing challenges quickly during medicine's 2-year war against COVID-19, Newsweek says.

The top three are:

• Mayo Clinic-Rochester, Rochester, Minnesota
• Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, Ohio
• Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston.

The Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore was sixth, and UCLA Health-Ronald Reagan Medical Center was ninth.

The World’s Best Hospitals 2022 ranking lists the top 250 hospitals in 27 countries, with three new countries on the list this year—Colombia, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates—bringing the total to more than 2,200 hospitals.
