CHA Named to Newsweek's List of Best Maternity Hospitals 2023
CHA recognized for excellence in reducing pregnancy risk
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — Cambridge Health Alliance (CHA), a community health system serving Cambridge, Somerville, and Boston's metro-north communities, has been named to Newsweek's list of Best Maternity Hospitals 2023. This prestigious award is presented by Newsweek and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. This honor reflects CHA's extensive efforts to reduce pregnancy risk and support equitable patient care. CHA employs a model of collaborative interprofessional care, with a focus on shared decision making with patients.
Three data sources were used for the evaluation:
- Nationwide online survey: Health care professionals and hospital managers with knowledge about maternity processes e.g., neonatal and perinatal doctors, nurses and midwives were asked to recommend leading maternity hospitals in the US
- Medical KPIs on hospitals with a focus on indicators relevant to maternity care
- Results from patient surveys
“We are delighted to be recognized for the third year in a row for this prestigious award,” said Tara Singh, MD, CHA’s interim chief of obstetrics and gynecology. “It is an honor to work with dedicated and collaborative colleagues and our patients to deliver high quality, equitable care for all.”
Newsweek and Statista invited over 10,000 medical professionals to participate in the survey. Only 384 winners were recognized on the Best Maternity Hospitals 2023 list. The awards list can currently be viewed on Newsweek's website.
