Rural hospitals recognized for this award rank in the 75th percentile or above in quality, outcomes, and patient perspective.

We are honored to be recognized for our commitment to quality and will continue to strive for excellence in every aspect of patient care.” St. Anthony is frequently recognized by the Chartis Center for Rural Health, earning the Top 100 Rural Community Hospital designation for four years from 2019 to 2022. The Chartis Center for Rural Health Network Consultant Troy Brown says, “The Performance Leadership Awards capture the commitment, diligence, and innovation with which America’s rural hospitals approach care delivery within their communities. It’s a tremendous honor to recognize the efforts of this year’s award winners and celebrate their achievement.”
