Reinforcing its long-standing commitment to patient experience, Memorial Hospital has announced the organization has earned two prestigious national ratings for overall patient care, as well as the national 2025 Healthgrades Outstanding Patient Experience Award.

Memorial Hospital has earned a five-star rating for overall hospital quality, in addition to a five-star rating for patient experience of care by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS) Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) summary star ratings. CMS rates hospitals from one to five stars, based on their safety, efficiency, and patient experience.

“To say I am proud of our team at Memorial is an understatement,” comments Chip Hubbs, President & CEO of Memorial Health. “The level of patient care demonstrated by our clinical teams is best-in-class and is further exemplified in our organization receiving the highest possible rating of five stars for quality as well as patient experience from CMS. Memorial is the only hospital in Central Ohio to earn a five-star rating in both segments – placing our team in an elite category of the top 8% of hospitals. Receiving this highly sought after rating demonstrates Memorial Health is a high-performing healthcare system with caring, expert team members, physicians, and providers.”

The ratings provide consumers with a comparison tool that can be used to help make informed decisions about their healthcare. Memorial Hospital encourages patients to use Hospital Compare as another measure in their healthcare provider selection process.
