U-M Health System Again Makes Top 10

The University of Michigan Health System once again has been named one of the 10 top hospitals in the country, according to U.S. News & World Report’s annual survey released in July. U-M came in eighth this year, maintaining its coveted spot of being among the nation’s leading health care institutions. Last year, it ranked seventh.

The magazine’s annual report not only ranks the honor roll of “Best Hospitals,” but also assesses hospitals in various medical specialties. Again this year, UMHS was recognized in nearly all the specialties, ranking in the top 15 in 12 of the categories. Four specialties were within the top 10: cancer (9); ear, nose and throat (4); geriatrics (10); and respiratory disorders (10).
