July 2 2021 – Holy Cross Health has been recognized as a 5-star Hospital for 2021 by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). Holy Cross Health was one of only 455 hospitals nationally to receive the 5-star rating.
CMS created the Five-Star Quality Rating System to help consumers, their families, and caregivers choose highly rated hospitals and providers in their area.
The annual CMS stars rankings are assigned to hospitals nationwide based on their performance across five quality categories: mortality, safety, readmission, patient experience and timely and effective care. Holy Cross was one of only 25 hospitals awarded five stars in Florida in 2021 and one of only three hospitals in South Florida.
“We are proud to be recognized with a 5-star rating from CMS,” said Mark Doyle, president and CEO of Holy Cross Health. “This is a credit to our entire Holy Cross Health team, the remarkable physicians, nurses, technicians, caregivers, support staff and our leadership who are committed each and every day to providing compassionate and expert quality care to our patients and their families.”
