Louisiana's Top Hospitals

July 1, 2013

Site Staff,

The patients speak

There is only one major source that provides creditable ongoing analysis of hospitals. It is Medicare, which has to be interested because it pays many of the big bills.

As part of its informational services, medicare.gov reports on evaluations of hospitals based on queries of patients. For the last two years we have gone through the data and created a one-of-a-kind list that shows the state’s hospitals according to locality.

To qualify for our list, at least 50 percent of the patients queried had to give the hospital a top overall ranking of 9 or 10. These are the top general service hospitals as seen through the eyes of those who have experienced them firsthand – the patients.
