-- Rankings Published by U.S. News & World Report
MINNEAPOLIS--(Business Wire)--
Amcom Software today announced that 15 out of 19 "Honor Roll"
hospitals, as ranked by U.S. News and World Report, use the company's
software solutions to automate and streamline communications, provide
online on-call scheduling or enhance patient, visitor and staff
safety. The recently released rankings appear in U.S. News & World
Report's highly regarded "Best Hospitals Report" for 2008.
The publication analyzed data on 5,453 medical centers to produce
this year's 16 specialty rankings. Only 170 hospitals were ranked in
one or more specialties and of those, just 19 were of Honor Roll
caliber. To be in this elite group, which rewards breadth of
excellence, a hospital had to achieve high scores in six or more
specialties. (Source:
