High Five! Cass Health Named a Top 20 Critical Access Hospital Again

(Atlantic)  For the fifth year in a row, Cass Health has been named one of the Top 20 Critical Access Hospitals in the United States by the National Rural Health Association (NRHA). This prestigious honor places Cass Health in the top 1% of more than 1,300 critical access hospitals across the country.

Cass Health CEO Brett Altman shared his pride in the organization’s continued success.

The Top 20 designation is based on the Chartis Rural Hospital Performance INDEX®, which evaluates rural and critical access hospitals using 36 publicly available metrics across eight performance pillars—including quality, outcomes, patient satisfaction, and financial performance. From this data, the Chartis Center for Rural Health identifies the Top 100, and the NRHA recognizes the highest-performing 20 hospitals from that group.

Cass Health will be formally recognized at an awards ceremony during the NRHA’s Critical Access Hospital Conference this fall.
