Alexis Kayser, healthcare editor at Newsweek, highlighted that the ranking offers families a reliable resource for identifying high-quality home health providers. She explained that the agencies on the list demonstrated excellence in clinical outcomes, patient experience, and overall service quality.
The selection of the top agencies is based on four main data sources including quality metrics published by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, peer recommendations collected through a national survey of home health professionals, patient experience surveys from the Home Health Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems, and accreditation information from organizations such as The Joint Commission, ACHC, and CHAP. These factors ensure that the recognized agencies meet the highest standards in patient safety, care quality, satisfaction, and professional reputation.
Kubizna emphasized that the honor is the result of the collective efforts of both field clinicians and support staff. He stated that through continuous quality review, patient experience initiatives, and safety programs, Mary Free Bed at Home remains committed to delivering exceptional care. This national recognition underscores the agency’s professionalism, compassion, and clinical excellence in serving patients and families across West Michigan and beyond.
