The state where all hospitals have perfect health equity scores

The state where all hospitals have perfect health equity scores  
Becker's Hospital Review; by Mariah Taylor; 9/2/25 
Delaware is the only state where 100% of its hospitals scored perfectly on health equity measures, according to CMS data. The agency used hospital commitment to health equity data, such as social determinants of health data, race, ethnicity, language, gender identity, sex, sexual orientation and disability status to determine access to equitable care and coverage. Facilities were ranked on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the highest score. CMS then compiled a ranking of states based on the percentage of facilities that received each score. Data was collected between January and December 2023 and was last updated Aug. 6. 
Editor's Note: Congratulations, hospital and other healthcare leaders throughout Delaware who have set the bar of excellence for health equity!
