Top 20 rural hospitals in the nation for 2020 announced

The National Rural Health Association has announced the top 20 rural community hospitals for 2020. The rankings were based on a recently released top 100 rural hospitals list from Chartis Center for Rural Health, part of health-care analytics consultancy The Chartis Group.

The 20 top hospitals were evaluated based on Chartis's Hospital Strength Index, which considers eight categories: inpatient market share, outpatient market share, quality, outcomes, patient perspective, cost, charge, and financial efficiency, according to the press release.

The list was notable in that most of the hospitals were in the west. Only five of the 20 were east of the Mississippi River: Aurora Medical Center-Manitowoc County in Two Rivers, Wis.; Community Hospitals and Wellness Centers in Bryan, Ohio; Major Health Partners in Shelbyville, Ind.; Memorial Hospital and Health Care Center in Jasper, Ind.; and University of Maryland Shore Medical Center at Easton in Easton, Md. South Dakota had the most hospitals on the list with five, followed by Utah with three. Click here for the entire list.
