U.S. News & World Report Names MercyOne Siouxland Medical Center A High Performing Hospital

U.S. News & World Report, the global authority in hospital rankings and consumer advice, has named MercyOne Siouxland Medical Center as a 2022-2023 High Performing hospital for COPD, heart failure and kidney failure. This is the highest award a hospital can earn for U.S. News’ Best Hospitals Procedures & Conditions ratings.

The annual Procedures & Conditions ratings are designed to assist patients and their doctors in making informed decisions about where to receive care for challenging health conditions or elective procedures.

MercyOne Siouxland Medical Center earned High Performing ratings for COPD, heart failure and kidney failure in recognition of care that was significantly better than the national average, as measured by factors such as patient outcomes.

“It’s an incredible honor to be recognized for the numerous contributions and incredible care our colleagues provide every day to our patients, our community and to MercyOne,” said MercyOne Western Iowa president Beth Hughes. “Our patients trust us to be there for them and help revolutionize their care. Thanks to our colleagues and providers, we are able to provide comprehensive and compassionate care every day in a state-of-the-art facility. I am so proud of our team and thankful to the community for choosing MercyOne.”

For the 2022-2023 Best Hospitals rankings and ratings, U.S. News evaluated more than 4,500 hospitals across 15 specialties and 20 procedures and conditions. Fewer than half of all hospitals received any High Performing rating, and only four earned this rating in all procedures and conditions. State and metro area rankings reflect the highest performing hospitals in the area across multiple areas of care.

“When patients are considering their options for care, the Best Hospitals ratings are designed to help them identify hospitals that excel in the kind of care they may need,” said Ben Harder, chief of health analysis and managing editor at U.S. News. “A hospital that’s earned a High Performing rating in a service may be a good option for patients in need of that service and their medical professionals to consider.”

The U.S. News Procedures & Conditions methodology is based entirely on objective measures of quality such as survival rates, patient experience, and how successfully each hospital helps patients get back home.
