Most Wired

The Most Wired organizations are hospitals and health systems that scored the highest on the survey questions. Each survey is scored using a methodology emphasizing the use of information technology. Individual scores are not made public, and organizations are not ranked. The survey is made possible through a partnership among H&HN, AHA, McKesson and CHIME.

25 Most Improved

The 25 Most Improved are organizations whose score improved the most from the previous year. Hospitals that score in the Most Wired do not qualify for this award. The Most Improved awards are a joint project of CareTech Solutions with H&HN, AHA, McKesson and CHIME.

25 Most Wired-Small and Rural

Rural hospitals, those located outside a metropolitan statistical area designated by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget as a geographically defined, integrated social and economic unit with a large population nucleus, and hospitals with 100 or fewer beds qualify for this category. Hospitals named to the Most Wired list cannot also be named Most Wired-Small and Rural.
