Franklin, NC (November 30, 2022) – The Centers for Medicare/Medicaid (CMS) has updated its Overall Hospital Quality Ratings for 2022, recognizing Angel Medical Center with a prestigious five-star rating. The ratings are created by CMS to reflect overall quality available at a particular hospital and are used to ranks more than 3,000 US hospitals using this system. Angel Medical Center is one of 12 hospitals in North Carolina and 429 across the US to receive this recognition.

CMS assigns star ratings to hospitals based on their performance across five quality categories, including: mortality, safety of care, readmission, patient experience, and timely and effective care. A five-star rating means that a facility ranks “much above average.”
