U.S. News & World Report names Maury Regional Medical Center among Best Hospitals 2024-2025 as High Performing

Maury Regional Medical Center (MRMC) has been named by U.S. News & World Report to its 2024-2025 Best Hospitals list as a High Performing hospital for knee replacement and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) procedures and/or conditions. This is the highest distinction 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 health care providers in making informed decisions about where to receive care for challenging health conditions or elective procedures.

“This recognition is a tremendous honor for Maury Regional Medical Center. Achieving ‘High-Performing’ status in both COPD and knee replacement care reflects our unwavering commitment to clinical excellence and delivering an exceptional patient experience,” said CEO Martin Chaney, MD. “This accolade is a testament to the dedication and expertise of our health care team, who work tirelessly to ensure the best outcomes for our patients. We are proud to serve our community with top-tier medical care and compassionate service.”

U.S. News evaluated nearly 5,000 hospitals across 15 specialties and 20 procedures and conditions. Hospitals awarded a “Best” designation excelled at factors such as clinical outcomes, level of nursing care and patient experience.

“For 35 years, U.S. News has been a leading resource for patients navigating their health care decisions,” said Ben Harder, chief of health analysis and managing editor at U.S. News. “The ‘High Performing’ designation acknowledges hospitals that consistently deliver high-quality care for specific medical procedures and conditions. This recognition highlights their expertise and commitment to patient well-being.”

To calculate the Best Hospitals rankings, U.S. News evaluated each hospital’s performance on objective measures, such as risk-adjusted mortality rates, preventable complications and level of nursing care. The Best Hospitals Specialty rankings methodology and Procedures & Conditions ratings methodology measure patient outcomes using data from millions of records provided by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. This year, among other methodology refinements, U.S. News incorporated new data on care provided to patients with Medicare Advantage Insurance and on care provided to outpatients, nearly doubling the number of patients included in its annual data analysis. The Procedures & Conditions ratings are based entirely on objective quality measures.

In addition, MRMC is the only hospital in Tennessee to receive the excellence in patient safety and outstanding patient experience awards from Healthgrades® in 2024.
