About the Healthgrades Outstanding Patient Experience Award™
Each year, Healthgrades recognizes the top hospitals nationwide that provide an exceptional experience for patients during their hospital stay. For its 2026 analysis, Healthgrades evaluated Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) patient survey data from nearly 4,000 hospitals across 10 patient experience measures*.
These measures focus on patients’ perceptions of their hospital care, including staff communication, medication explanations, and cleanliness. Hendricks Regional Health’s Outstanding Patient Experience Award™ is the direct result of positive patient feedback in these critical areas.
