Fortune and healthcare performance improvement company Premier released their 100 Top Hospitals 2025 list on April 2, recognizing top performers across five categories, including small community and large teaching hospitals .

Premier researchers analyzed nearly 2,600 U.S. hospitals, using public Medicare data, evaluating metrics such as inpatient mortality, length of stay, operating profit margin and healthcare-associated infections.

If the 100 recognized hospitals served all Medicare patients, more than 331,000 additional lives could be saved in a hospital setting, according to Premier’s analysis.

Hospitals could not self-nominate or be nominated by others, and winners do not pay for marketing, according to the report.

Below are the five categories featuring 20 hospitals each: major teaching hospitals, teaching hospitals, large community hospitals, medium community hospitals and small hospitals.
