Detroit-based Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute has been named one of America’s Best Hospitals for Cancer Care by the Women's Choice Award for the 10th consecutive year.
The award is given to the top 10 percent of U.S. hospitals offering cancer care services, according to a Dec. 6 news release shared with Becker's. The Women's Choice Award measures hospitals on specific cancer-related services offered on-site, infection rates and patient recommendation ratings on the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems Survey. The criteria also include primary research on women's healthcare preferences.
"In addition to our award winners' high-level performance on a national level, they provide the care that women value most, including easily accessible services on-site to avoid multiple trips for their treatment, which is so important to women faced with a cancer diagnosis," Delia Passi, founder and CEO of the Women's Choice Award and breast cancer survivor, said in the release.
