Lown Institute Hospitals Index

The Lown Institute Hospitals Index is a groundbreaking new way of evaluating hospitals by measuring what matters. We need socially responsible hospitals, ones that set a higher standard for health outcomes, value, and equity. The Lown Hospitals Index is the first ranking to examine hospital social responsibility, calculating scores across 53 different metrics to capture performance in what really matters to the communities they serve. It’s time we hold hospitals to a higher standard; The Lown Institute Hospitals Index can help them achieve those standards.
