About the ranking
The “World's Best Hospitals 2025” ranking was compiled on behalf of Newsweek in collaboration with Statista, one of the world's leading statistics portals. It is based on various data sources: an online survey of more than 85,000 medical experts from 30 countries was linked to the results of patient surveys and national medical quality indicators. In addition, the clinics were able to submit a survey on their PROM implementation status. PROMs are standardized, validated questionnaires that patients complete to measure their own perception of well-being and quality of life.
