TOP HOSPITALS

Tophospital

There is one major source that provides credible ongoing analysis of hospitals: Medicare, which — as the federal health insurance program for people 65 and older, as well as certain younger people with disabilities — often provides funding for many of the big bills. As part of its informational services, medicare.gov reports on evaluations of hospitals based on queries of patients.

The Louisiana Life editorial staff sifts through the data every year in order to create a one-of-a-kind list demonstrating the state’s hospitals according to locality. To qualify for this list, at least 60 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. Note, however, that several hospitals in the state did not have any information available on Medicare’s website and therefore could not qualify to be on the list.
