U.S. News & World Report Names Holy Cross Health Among Best Hospitals for 2025-2026 in Six Conditions

Fort Lauderdale – July 29, 2025 – Holy Cross Health has been named by U.S. News & World Report a 2025-2026 Best Hospital.

Holy Cross Health has been named High-Performing in six conditions: Colon Cancer Surgery, Heart Failure, Hip Fracture, Hip Replacement, Knee Replacement and Pacemaker Implantation among U.S. News’ latest edition of Best Hospitals. This year, U.S. News announced 504 Best Regional Hospitals across 49 states and 95 metro areas that have demonstrated superior outcomes.

“Holy Cross Health has been dedicated to advancing the health of our community for 70 years,” said President and CEO Pierre Monice. “While we are honored to receive accolades like this, the true reward is knowing that we are living out the healing legacy of the Sisters of Mercy.”

U.S. News evaluated more than 4,400 hospitals across 15 adult specialties and 22 procedures and conditions; only 13% of evaluated hospitals earned a Best Hospitals designation.

“For more than three decades, U.S. News has been an invaluable guide for patients,” said Managing Editor and Chief of Health Analysis Ben Harder at U.S. News. “With a ‘Best Hospital’ recognition, Americans, in consultation with their medical providers, can confidently choose a regional hospital known for providing superior care for their specific illness or condition.”

To determine the Best Hospitals, U.S. News analyzed each hospital’s performance based on objective measures such as risk-adjusted mortality rates, preventable complications and level of nursing care. The Best Hospitals Specialty rankings methodology and Procedures & Conditions ratings methodology measure patient outcomes using data from over 800 million records of patient care.
