Becker's Hospital Review Names 100 Hospitals with Great Heart Programs

Medical Center of Central Georgia Included on National List of Top Cardiology Programs

 

MACON, GA (Monday, January 21, 2013) – Becker's Hospital Review has recognized The Medical Center of Central Georgia in its recently released list of "100 Hospitals with Great Heart Programs."

The list recognizes outstanding hospitals for heart care in the United States. According to Becker's, the included hospitals have made strides to combat heart disease – the leading cause of death for men and women in the United States – through innovative clinical research, high-quality care and state-of-the-art treatments. These hospitals have also extended their services beyond the confines of their facilities by educating their local communities about heart health, helping sharpen our country's focus on preventive care and population health. 

MCCG is one of three Georgia hospitals to be recognized by Becker's. The others include Northside Hospital- Forsyth in Cumming, Ga. and WellStar Cobb Hospital in Austell, Ga.

The 100 hospitals were selected based on clinical accolades, recognition for quality care and contributions to the fields of cardiology and cardiovascular surgery. These hospitals have been set apart for excellence in heart care and research by prominent and reputable healthcare sources and associations, including U.S. News & World Report, HealthGrades, Thomson Reuters and the American Nurses Credentialing Center.
