NBBJ Clients Lead U.S. News & World Report's 2026-27 Best Hospitals Honor Roll
Healthcare institutions are entrusted with people at some of life’s most celebrated, vulnerable and difficult moments. With the stakes so high, leading health systems continue to push for better outcomes—advancing medicine, improving how care is delivered and creating better experiences for patients, families and caregivers.
The 2026–27 U.S. News & World Report “Best Hospitals Honor Roll” recognizes 20 organizations setting that standard nationwide, and NBBJ is honored to have partnered with 75% of them. Fifteen of the hospitals recognized are past or current NBBJ clients, including Massachusetts General Hospital, Cedars-Sinai, UCSF Health, NYU Langone Health and Brigham and Women’s Hospital, among others.
The recognition is especially meaningful given the breadth of the evaluation. U.S. News assessed nearly 4,500 hospitals, considering specialty performance as well as 23 procedures and conditions, with measures including patient outcomes, complications and other indicators of care quality.
We’re proud to work alongside healthcare organizations continually raising the bar for patient care, and grateful for the opportunity to create environments that support their clinicians, staff, patients and families. Congratulations to this year’s honorees and to the healthcare professionals whose dedication, expertise and innovation make this recognition possible.
