Healthgrades evaluates hospitals solely on what matters most — patient outcomes — to determine the top-performing hospitals for specialty care in each of the 32 states assessed. Healthgrades' 2024 analysis revealed that patients who seek care at a hospital with rankings in their condition or procedure have a better chance of a good outcome than if they were treated at a facility that is not among the top 3 in Kentucky. This widening performance gap highlights the importance of selecting a top-rated program.

"Healthgrades is proud to recognize Saint Joseph London as among the top 3 in Kentucky for pulmonary care," said Brad Bowman, MD, Chief Medical Officer and Head of Data Science at Healthgrades. "Hospitals with a #3 ranking in their state deliver consistently superior outcomes for the patients in their community.
