U.S. News evaluated more than 12,000 Medicare-certified home health agencies nationwide, naming top performers based on care quality and patient experience. St. Luke’s earned a High Performing designation, placing it among the nation’s leading providers of in-home care. According to U.S. News, top-rated home health agencies demonstrate measurable advantages over national averages, including:
- Faster start of care (99% on time vs. 94% nationally)
- Improved mobility outcomes (93% vs. 83%)
- Greater patient independence in daily activities such as bathing, mobility, and medication management
“These new ratings provide families with a trusted starting point when making important care decisions,” said Ben Harder, Chief of Health Analysis and Managing Editor at U.S. News. “They highlight agencies that consistently deliver strong patient outcomes and positive experiences.”
The Best Home Health ratings are based on data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, combining clinical performance measures with patient experience surveys to provide a comprehensive evaluation of care.
