Nyack, NY, August 12, 2026 – Montefiore Nyack Hospital has been named among U.S. News & World Report’s 2026-2027 Best Hospitals edition as a High Performing hospital for Heart Failure, Kidney Failure, Leukemia, Lymphoma & Myeloma, and Pneumonia. This is the highest distinction a hospital can earn as part of U.S. News’ Best Hospitals Procedures & Conditions ratings. Fewer than half of the thousands of hospitals evaluated earned a 'High Performing' designation in the types of care evaluated by U.S. News.

Earlier this year, Montefiore Nyack Hospital also received designation as a High Performing Hospital for Maternity Care for the third year in a row and a Best Home Health Care Agency in this inaugural ranking.

U.S. News’ annual Procedures & Conditions ratings are designed to assist patients and their health care providers in making informed decisions about where to receive care for challenging health conditions or elective procedures.

When a patient needs specialty care, they should take comfort in knowing that it can be provided at the highest level right here in our community, said Mark E. Geller, MD, FACR, president and CEO of Montefiore Nyack. At Montefiore Nyack Hospital, we pride ourselves on providing a wide range of exceptional clinical services while keeping patient experience at the center of everything we do. This recognition from U.S. News & World Report reflects our ongoing commitment to delivering high-quality care close to home, and we are honored to be recognized among its Best Hospitals.

When patients face a major surgery or a chronic medical condition, having access to clear, quality data is vital, said U.S. News’ Managing Editor and Chief of Health Analysis Ben Harder. A ‘High Performing’ rating means that Montefiore Nyack Hospital outperformed a national threshold, giving families a reliable starting point as they consult with their doctors to choose the best place for care.

U.S. News evaluated nearly 4,500 hospitals across 14 adult specialties and 23 procedures and conditions; less than half earned recognition in any of those 37 areas of care. To determine the Best Hospitals, U.S. News analyzed each hospital’s performance based on objective measures such as risk-adjusted mortality rates, preventable complications and patient experience. The Best Hospitals Specialty rankings methodology and Procedures & Conditions ratings methodology measure patient outcomes using data from over 800 million records of patient care.
