CHH is only hospital in the region among top 2% in the nation

Cabell Huntington Hospital (CHH), a member of Marshall Health Network, today announced that it is one of America’s 100 Best Hospitals for 2024. CHH is the only hospital in West Virginia and its surrounding region to be named a Top 100 Hospital in the U.S.

According to new research released by Healthgrades, this achievement puts CHH in the top 2% of hospitals nationwide for overall clinical performance, along with numerous other accolades from Healthgrades - Specialty Excellence Awards, State Rankings, etc. This is the second consecutive year the hospital has been among America’s 100 Best Hospitals and the sixth consecutive year the hospital has been among America’s 250 Best Hospitals (2019-2024).

“Cabell Huntington Hospital continues to demonstrate its commitment to advancing health and inspiring hope for those we serve in our region,” said Kevin Yingling, MD, CEO of Marshall Health Network. “For two years in a row, we’ve been named among the top 100 hospitals in the country. These rankings provide patients and their care team with a data-driven resource to compare performance in outcomes, patient satisfaction and other significant metrics that matter to them. We are truly thankful for our employees and physicians who made this possible.”

“Being recognized once again on a national level from Healthgrades speaks volumes about the level of care we offer at Cabell Huntington Hospital,” said Hoyt Burdick, MD, chief medical officer of Marshall Health Network. “Our team has remained committed to the highest standards in patient safety and health care quality. This culture of quality and patient safety is shared by everyone at Cabell Huntington Hospital, and is also demonstrated throughout Marshall Health Network.”

Unlike other hospital studies, Healthgrades ratings are based solely on what matters most: patient outcomes. Healthgrades reports that from 2020-2022, if all hospitals, as a group, performed similarly to America’s 100 Best Hospitals, 180,413 lives could have been saved, as measured across 30 rated conditions and procedures where mortality is the outcome.

“Healthgrades commends Cabell Huntington Hospital for their leadership and continued dedication to high quality care,” said Brad Bowman, MD, Chief Medical Officer and Head of Data Science at Healthgrades. “As one of America’s 100 Best Hospitals, Cabell Huntington Hospital is elevating the standard for quality care nationwide and ensuring superior outcomes for the patients in their community.”
