The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has awarded its top hospital quality rating to UChicago Medicine AdventHealth La Grange.
The hospital received a 5-star rating in the 2025 ratings update on the CMS Hospital Compare website. Only 290 U.S. hospitals received 5-star ratings, and UChicago Medicine AdventHealth La Grange was among only 12 Illinois hospitals to earn the top rating. Two other UChicago Medicine AdventHealth hospitals – UChicago Medicine AdventHealth Bolingbrook and UChicago Medicine AdventHealth Hinsdale – received 4-star ratings.
“Achieving a five-star rating from CMS reflects our unwavering commitment to delivering the highest-quality, whole-person care for every patient we serve,” said Kathleen Downey, chief nursing officer of UChicago Medicine AdventHealth La Grange. “It is a testament to the dedication, skill and compassion of our entire care team.”
The Hospital Compare website enables consumers seeking care to identify the right hospital for them by comparing the quality of care at different hospitals. CMS determines the overall star ratings for hospitals across the nation based on 46 measures of quality across five categories: mortality, patient experience, readmission rates, safety of care and timely and effective care. CMS assigns its star ratings annually.
“Earning this recognition is a direct result of the teamwork and dedication that happens every day at our hospital,” said Dave Tkachuck, president and CEO of UChicago Medicine AdventHealth La Grange. “Our incredible team of caregivers make safety and quality their primary focus as we fulfill our mission of Extending the Healing Ministry of Christ.”
