Nashville is known for exporting hospitals across the country as part of its $46.7 billion health care industry, but there are also highly regarded hospitals throughout the state.
U.S. News & World Report has ranked the top hospitals in each state based on factors such as survival rates, readmission rates, patient safety and volume to determine its rankings. Facilities must be a teaching hospital, be affiliated with a medical school or have at least 200 beds to be considered.
