NYU Langone Health has once again been named the top comprehensive academic medical center in the country by health care performance improvement company Vizient.
The rankings, released Wednesday, measure annual performance across six key areas: safety, mortality, effectiveness, efficiency, patient centeredness and equity.
NYU Langone has topped this list for the third consecutive year.
“Recognitions like this further validate the quality that NYU Langone consistently delivers to everyone in our care,” Dr. Robert I. Grossman, CEO of NYU Langone Health and dean of the NYU Grossman School of Medicine, told The Post in a statement.
“This ranking reflects our team’s commitment to excellence and seizing every opportunity to make a difference in the lives of the patients and families we serve,” he added.
Vizient also ranked NYU Langone’s ambulatory network, its hospitals in Brooklyn and on Long Island, and NewYork-Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital among the best in the nation.
NewYork-Presbyterian Weill Cornell Medical Center was honored with a Rising Star award, which is bestowed upon on academic medical centers that made “significant improvement” in care quality.
Stony Brook University Hospital on Long Island earned Vizient’s Environmental Sustainability Excellence award for its “contributions to human and environmental health through responsible purchasing decisions.”
“At Stony Brook University Hospital, we understand the decisions made at our hospital can play a major role in our community’s human and environmental health,” hospital CEO Carol Gomes told The Post. “Our team makes it a priority to implement sustainable practices and choose environmentally conscious materials to deliver the high-quality care essential to our patients. We thank Vizient for recognizing our hospital’s commitment to environmental excellence in healthcare.”
The ratings come two months after U.S. News & World Report named NYU Langone Hospitals, Mount Sinai Hospital, NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital-Columbia and Cornell, and North Shore University Hospital at Northwell Health in Manhasset to its Best Hospitals Honor Roll for 2024-2025.
