St. Luke’s University Health Network has been named to the 2022 Fortune/Merative 100 Top Hospitals list, formerly known as the IBM/ Watson Health 100 Top Hospital list.
This list is determined using independent and objective research to analyze hospital performance. Organizations do not apply or pay for this honor or pay to promote their award. The annual list is now published by Fortune Magazine. For more information, visit 100tophospitals.com.
This is the 10th time St. Luke’s has been recognized with this honor as one of the top performing health systems in the U.S.
St. Luke’s is the only hospital in the greater Lehigh Valley region to ever earn this distinction.
Merative, (IBM Watson Health) a data, analytics and technology partner for the health industry, has identified for 2022 the top hospitals from a rigorous evaluation of 2,650 short-term, acute care, non-federal hospitals in the U.S. The annual list recognizes excellence in clinical outcomes, operational efficiency, patient experience and financial health.
As part of this distinction, St. Luke’s Bethlehem and Allentown campuses were recognized as No. 2 of the 15 best Major Teaching Hospitals in the U.S.
“These awards are particularly meaningful because they represent the outstanding healing environment that we provide to patients day in and day out when doing so requires our undivided attention and during a once in two generation pandemic,” said Rick Anderson, president and CEO of St. Luke’s University Health Network.
