To identify the top-rated hospitals for outpatient orthopedics, Healthgrades analyzed patient outcomes at short-term acute care facilities nationwide that offer critical outpatient orthopedic procedures in an outpatient environment. Healthgrades’ analysis found that patients treated at hospitals that were rated five-stars for outpatient orthopedics have a demonstrably better chance at a smooth recovery than those treated at hospitals that were not recognized by Healthgrades. In fact, between 2020 and 2022, patients having knee replacement at five-star rated hospitals have, on average, a 69.5% lower risk of experiencing a complication while in the hospital than patients treated at one-star hospitals.*
