Newsweek Ranks Mercy Hospital St. Louis Among World’s Best Hospitals for 5th Straight Year

March 1, 2023

ST. LOUIS - For the fifth consecutive year, Newsweek magazine has listed Mercy Hospital St. Louis as one of the World’s Best Hospitals and among the top 15% of hospitals ranked.

Newsweek and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider, developed a complex methodology to ensure the quality and validity of the ranking. Four data sources were used for the evaluation:

  • Hospital recommendations from medical experts: An international online survey sent to more than 80,000 doctors, hospital managers and health care professionals.
  • Patient Experience: Publicly available data from existing patient surveys used to analyze patient experience.
  • Patient Reported Outcome Measures: Standardized, validated questionnaires completed by patients to measure their perception of their functional well-being and quality of life. Statista conducted the voluntary patient-reported outcome measures implementation survey.
  • Hospital Quality Metrics: patient safety, hygiene measures, wait times and quality of treatment.
