A national study named the University Medical Center - the primary teaching hospital for The University of Arizona Colleges of Medicine, Nursing and Pharmacy, Tucscon, AZ, - among the top 100 hospitals in the nation for overall performance for the fourth year in a row.
Thomson Reuters recently announced winners of its 100 Top Hospitals: National Benchmarks Award in the United States. The 16th annual award is based on the performance of more than 3,000 U.S. hospitals on mortality, medical complications, patient safety, average length of stay, expenses, profitability, cash-to-debt ratio, patient satisfaction and adherence to clinical standards of care.
University Medical Center's consistently high performance over the past several years also earned the hospital an Everest Award for National Benchmarks, a new award from Thomson Reuters. UMC was the only Arizona hospital, and just one of 23 hospitals in the nation, selected for the Everest Award.
