About 100 Top Hospitals: Everest Award for National Benchmarks

The 100 Top Hospitals®: Everest Award for National Benchmarks honors a special group of the 2008 100 Top Hospitals National award winners. Everest Award winners have reached the highest level of accomplishment on the 100 Top Hospitals national balanced scorecard — benchmark performance combined with the fastest rates of long term improvement.

This award recognizes the boards, executives, and medical staff leaders who developed and executed strategies that enabled a culture of performance improvement to grow rapidly and consistently over five years within the hospital, and that resulted in setting national benchmarks for excellence in the industry. This unique group of hospitals and their leaders will be the focus of our governance and organizational management research in the years to come.
