FORT WAYNE, Ind. – March 4, 2026 – Parkview Regional Medical Center (PRMC) was recently named to Newsweek’s World’s Best Hospitals list.
PRMC was ranked No. 289 in the U.S., which currently has about 6,100 total hospitals in operation, and was one of nine Hoosier hospitals to make the 2026 list. Parkview’s rating improved this year, from No. 311 in 2025.
“As Parkview’s flagship hospital, PRMC stands out not just for the breadth of services it provides to our patients, but for the excellent experience our team of thousands of physicians, nurses, caregivers and support staff delivers every day,” said Jerry Grannan, president, PRMC and Affiliates. “Whether it’s our emergency department, family birthing center, inpatient rooms, surgical suites or co-located heart and cancer institutes, patients coming to PRMC receive excellent care from people who care.”
Newsweek partnered with Statista to evaluate more than 2,500 hospitals across 32 countries to develop its eighth annual ranking. Hospitals were scored based on four data sources: recommendations from medical experts, including doctors, hospital managers and other health care professionals; hospital quality metrics; existing patient experience data; and Statista’s Patient-Reported Outcome Measures Implementation Survey, which includes questionnaires completed by patients to measure their perceived functional well-being and quality of life.
PRMC has been a consistent leader in quality and safety in Indiana, with “A” Hospital Safety Grades from The Leapfrog Group on 23 of 25 report cards dating back to 2013; has been named one of U.S. News and World Report’s best hospitals in Indiana in 2024 and 2025; and recognized as a quality and accountability leader by Vizient.
“When it comes to quality and safety of care, PRMC is not just a leader for Parkview but for our state,” said Dr. Michael Yurkanin, chief physician executive, PRMC & Affiliates. “Our team-based approach to care means we utilize the expertise of our many physicians and specialists to treat our patients holistically, finding the mix that fits each individual’s particular needs.”
