Premier Health Hospitals Recognized as Top Performers in U.S.

Miami Valley Hospital and Atrium Medical Center have been recognized by Healthgrades® as being among the best hospitals in the country. 

Miami Valley Hospital received a fourth consecutive America's 100 Best Hospitals Award™ from Healthgrades – once again placing the hospital in Dayton in the top 2 percent of hospitals in the country. Prior to 2016, the hospital ranked in the top 250 U.S. hospitals for two years.

Additionally, Atrium Medical Center earned the America's 250 Best Hospitals Award™ from Healthgrades for a fifth consecutive year, meaning that the Middletown hospital continues to rank in the top 5 percent of hospitals in the nation.

“Our employees take great pride in setting the bar high for what it means to deliver quality health care to patients in Southwest Ohio,” said Mary Boosalis, president and CEO of Premier Health. “We remain committed to taking our care to an even higher level through transforming how we provide health care and improving access to our physicians and services throughout the region.” 

Healthgrades, an extensive online resource for information about physicians and hospitals, evaluates hospital quality based on clinical outcomes, adjusting for risk factors such as age, gender, and medical condition. For this year’s awards, the organization analyzed Medicare Provider Analysis and Review data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services for the years 2015 through 2017 – which amounts to more than 45 million Medicare medical claims records from nearly 4,500 hospitals nationwide.
