ACMH Named a 2018 Top 100 Critical Access Hospital

Audubon County Memorial Hospital and Clinics in Audubon, Iowa was recently named one of the Top 100 Critical Access Hospitals in the United States by The Chartis Center for Rural Health.

“This achievement is due to the hard word of the staff, board, and medical staff of ACMH and validates our daily commitment to providing the best healthcare possible to our community, while maintaining an efficient and effective facility,” said Suzanne Cooner, CEO.

Audubon County Memorial Hospital and Clinics scored in the top 100 of Critical Access Hospitals on iVantage Health Analytics’ Hospital Strength INDEX®. The INDEX is the industry’s most comprehensive and objective assessment of rural provider performance and its results are the basis for many of rural healthcare’s most prominent awards, advocacy efforts and legislative initiatives.

The Top 100 Critical Access Hospitals play a key role in providing a safety net to communities across America – and the INDEX measures these facilities across eight pillars of hospital strength: Inpatient Share Ranking, Outpatient Share Ranking, Cost, Charge, Quality, Outcomes, Patient Perspective, and Financial Stability.

Audubon County Memorial Hospital and Clinics is a 25 bed, Critical Access Hospital serving Audubon County and the surrounding areas, with the mission of “Excellence With Quality and Compassion To Those We Serve.” We are honored to be named one of the Top 100 Critical Access Hospitals in 2018.  If you travel out of the county for your health care needs, please consider making your next appointment at ACMH, 712-563-2611 acmhhosp.org.
