August 3, 2024 at 1:00 a.m.


FORT WAYNE – Parkview Regional Medical Center (PRMC) and Parkview Ortho Hospital (POH) were named to the 2024 U.S. News and World Report Best Hospitals ranking.
PRMC was ranked No. 4 overall in Indiana, putting it in the top 11% of facilities nationally. PRMC was also recognized as a "High Performing" facility for seven different procedures or conditions, while POH was named High Performing in three categories.
"Parkview Regional Medical Center has provided comprehensive, high quality care to northeast Indiana for more than a decade," said John Bowen, president, PRMC and Affiliates. "Co-located with our specialty facilities for orthopedic, heart, cancer and women and children's care, patients can get the services they need all on one campus delivered by our dedicated and skilled coworkers."
"We're proud to be recognized by U.S. News and World Report as a High Performing facility for our orthopedic services," said Dr. Alan McGee, president, Parkview Health Orthopedics. "Our physicians and surgeons work closely with their patients to create an appropriate care plan and help them achieve their goals."
Three of PRMC's high-performing marks come from cancer care provided at the Parkview Packnett Family Cancer Institute, where Parkview was recognized for excellent leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma care; colon cancer surgery; and prostate cancer surgery. Parkview's cardiology care via the Parkview Heart Institute notched two accolades for abdominal aortic aneurysm repair and heart failure care, while stroke and COPD services were recognized as high performing.
Parkview Ortho Hospital received high-performing ratings in all three categories U.S. News considers for ortho specialty hospitals – back surgery (spinal fusion), hip replacement and knee replacement.
U.S. News's Best Hospitals project evaluates U.S. adult hospitals annually on how they provide 36 different types of care. The rankings of 15 medical specialties use a variety of quality measures to identify the hospitals that excel at handling the most complex and difficult cases. The ratings of 21 common procedures and conditions are based entirely on objective quality indicators, such as patient outcomes and nurse staffing levels.
