BMH Awarded on Newsweek’s Best Maternity Hospitals 2022 List

Butler, PA, May 26, 2022 – Butler Memorial Hospital has been awarded on Newsweek’s list of Best Maternity Hospitals 2022. This prestigious award is presented by Newsweek and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The awards list was announced on May 11, 2022 and can currently be viewed on Newsweek’s website.

“This is the third consecutive year that BMH has earned this recognition. It again affirms the excellent care provided by Butler Health System OB/GYN physicians, nurses and support staff,” said Butler Health System President & CEO Ken DeFurio. “Butler Health System is proud of its excellent Maternal Services Team, and we thank them.”

Newsweek and Statista developed a complex methodology to ensure the quality and validity of the ranking. Three data sources were used for the evaluation:

• Nationwide online survey: hospital managers and health care professionals with knowledge about maternity processes e.g. Midwives, neonatal and OB/GYNs 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

Newsweek and Statista invited over 10,000 medical professionals to participate in the survey. Only 350 winners were recognized on the Best Maternity Hospitals 2022 list.
