Healthcare professionals and hospital managers with knowledge about oncology e.g., oncologists, hematologists, and oncology nurses were asked to recommend leading cancer hospitals in the US.
  • Hospital Quality Metrics: General hospital quality metrics as well as certifications and accreditations with a focus relevant to the specialties were considered for the children’s ranking. Hospital quality metrics with a focus on indicators relevant to oncology care were considered for the cancer ranking.
  • Results from Patient Surveys: Survey of patient experience during their hospitalization.
