A round of applause

In 2024, the University of Kentucky Albert B. Chandler Hospital at UK HealthCare was once again named the No. 1 hospital in Kentucky and the Bluegrass Region in the U.S. News & World Report’s Best Hospitals rankings and ratings.

In a new category, the hospital received the designation of Best Regional Hospital for Equitable Access, recognizing its success in caring for patients in underserved communities. It was the only hospital in Kentucky to receive this designation.

Additionally, six adult specialties at UK HealthCare and 14 common adult procedures and conditions received a high-performing designation.
