GHI Analysis — Thu, 02 Dec 2021 16:34:33 +0000

After sharing the top 50 best-equipped hospitals in Brazil and Latin America via a basic report that was published in September 2021, GHI has now made its full HospiRank 2021 data available to the public on its website. Once you visit the main page, you can access the top 50 report and can also view the rankings for the six countries featured in HospiRank 2021:

For each country, you will find a list of the top 10 best-equipped hospitals according to the following categories:

Best Equipped for Hosting Patients
Best Infrastructure for High Procedure Count
Highest Count of Basic Surgical Equipment
Best-Equipped Hospitals for Accommodating Newborns
Best-Equipped Hospitals for Primary Diagnostics
Best Installed Base for Treating Cancer
Best-Equipped Hospitals for Advanced Diagnostic Imaging
Best-Equipped Hospitals for High-Risk Patients

While the amount of medical equipment that a hospital or clinic possess is in no way the only factor in determining its quality, it can be helpful to understand what different institutions have available. Through HospiScope, SurgiScope, In-Scope, ShareScope, and LatAm Hospital Monitoring Service, GHI provides market intelligence for medical equipment/device manufacturers. As such, HospiRank could offer useful information about potential or existing clients. And for hospital administrators and public health officials, HospiRank could also offer data that is useful for benchmarking or to complementing existing knowledge about the medical resources available in a specific country.

With that in mind, we have made these rankings available to the general public. Beyond the 2021 rankings, on GHI’s site you can also find HospiRank for 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020, allowing you to make comparisons over time in the case of certain countries.

Latin America’s Best-Equipped Hospitals

GHI Analysis — Mon, 03 Jul 2017 16:02:28 +0000

It is important for rankings to be based on facts and not subjective measures. When done properly, rankings are insightful, giving a sense of perspective through comparison. Healthcare systems across Latin America are notorious for lacking up-to-date and trustworthy information, thus skewing the perception.

To fill this gap, Global Health Intelligence (GHI) decided to delve into its database (which covers 86% of all hospitals in Latin America and now includes Bolivia, Uruguay and Paraguay) to analyze which hospitals have the highest equipment counts in 4 specific categories:

• Patient care (number of beds)
• Diagnostic imaging equipment
• Cardiovascular equipment
• Maternity unit equipment

These four categories are critical pillars when evaluating patient care. The number of beds within an institution is often an indicator of the size of the hospital and may be correlated to the level of care. Diagnostic imaging equipment is essential to properly diagnose any number of life-threatening and chronic conditions. Cardiovascular equipment is just as important given the prevalence of heart disease in Latin America. A majority of births take place in hospitals and birthing is one of the main activities of most hospitals, which denotes significant importance to maternity units and infant care. While additional categories could have been included, GHI decided to focus on these 4 areas of care in order make the ranking more manageable.

Why Multiple Categories and Countries?

Rankings are often all-encompassing with no specific focus, such as the “The 50 best hospitals.” Given the complexities of healthcare systems in place and the context in which they operate, GHI opted to acknowledge these characteristics by creating a ranking per leading category. This also enables smaller yet more specialized hospitals to form part of the ranking.

GHI applied the same plurality by setting up the rankings per country in order to reflect local market dynamics accurately. For example, Brazil has over 200 million people and over 7,000 hospitals. It would be an unjust comparison to include Brazilian hospitals alongside those of Peru, for instance, a market that’s 10 times smaller.
