As part of its 2025 hospital assessment, Healthgrades evaluated risk-adjusted mortality and complication rates for more than 30 of the most common conditions and procedures at approximately 4,500 hospitals nationwide to determine the top performers in specialty care.
Healthgrades’ 2025 analysis revealed that if all hospitals as a group performed similarly to five-star hospitals during the 2021-2023 study period, on average, 224,958 lives could potentially have been saved and 141,692 complications could potentially have been avoided.* From 2021-2023, patients having hip fracture treatment in hospitals with five stars had, on average, a 54.8% lower risk of experiencing a complication while in the hospital than if they were treated by hospitals with one star.* During that same time period, patients having spinal fusion procedures in hospitals with five stars had, on average, a 58% lower risk of experiencing a complication while in the hospital than if they were treated by hospitals with one star.*
