November 08, 2024

Henderson, NV – HCA Healthcare Far West Division hospitals in Nevada and California achieved numerous accolades for clinical excellence from Healthgrades, the primary source Americans use to search for a doctor or hospital.

Far West Division hospitals were awarded 13 Excellence Awards, placing them among the nation’s top 10% across an expansive list of specialties including neurosciences, pulmonary care and more. The eight hospitals also were ranked among the top 100 hospitals in America for 13 specialties.

“We are honored to be recognized by Healthgrades for our Far West Division hospitals’ commitment to delivering high-quality specialty care,” said Jeffrey Murawsky, MD, FWD Chief Medical Officer. “We are deeply proud and grateful for our dedicated teams across California and Nevada who work hard each day to ensure every patient receives exceptional care and leaves our facilities feeling healthy, safe, and truly heard.”

The achievements of HCA’s Far West Division hospitals are based solely on what matters most: patient outcomes. As part of its 2025 hospital assessment, Healthgrades evaluated risk-adjusted mortality and complication rates for more than 30 of the most common conditions and procedures at approximately 4,500 hospitals nationwide to determine the top performers in specialty care. By offering easy access to objective performance measures, Healthgrades helps consumers find and select a hospital that excels in providing the care they need.

As variation in performance among hospitals continues to grow, it is increasingly important for consumers to seek care at top-rated programs. Healthgrades’ 2025 analysis revealed that if all hospitals as a group performed similarly to five-star hospitals during the 2021-2023 study period, on average, 224,958 lives potentially could have been saved and 141,692 complications potentially could have been avoided.*

“Healthgrades commends the eight hospitals of HCA’s Far West Division for their clear commitment to delivering consistently superior patient outcomes in a multitude of critical service areas.” said Brad Bowman, MD, Chief Medical Officer and head of data science at Healthgrades. “The Far West Division’s leadership, expertise, and unwavering dedication to clinical excellence set a high mark for specialty care in the Far West and nationwide.”
