美国USNEWS最佳医院排名的重点一直以来都是尽量迎合最具挑战性和医学复杂疑难的病人的需求。以这些病人为代表的案例往往也是风险最大的，经常是些关乎生死的案例。对有些病人来说，通过最佳医院排名情况，敢于冒险寻求值得信赖的社区医院之外的一流的专业的医学中心的治疗也有重要意义。因此，考虑到这些病人的情况，美国USNEWS公布了2015-2016年度美国最佳医院排名。
稳居榜首的包括德克萨斯大学休斯顿分校安德森癌症中心(癌症研究排名第一)，位于俄亥俄州的克利夫兰诊所(心脏病学、心脏手术研究全美第一)，位于纽约的纽约特种外科医院(整形外科研究全美第一)等。还包含15所全美荣誉最好的医院，哈佛大学麻省总医院排名第一。其次分别是梅奥诊所、约翰霍普金斯医院、加州洛杉矶分校医学中心、克利夫兰诊所等。
The focus of the Best Hospitals rankings has long been on meeting the needs of the most challenging and medically complex patients. These patients represent cases where the stakes are greatest – often a matter of life or death – and where, for some patients, it makes sense to venture beyond a trusted community hospital to seek care at a truly exceptional medical center. With these patients in mind, U.S. News today published its 2015-16 national rankings, which cover complex care in 16 medical and surgical specialties.
Top-ranked hospitals include University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston (No. 1 in the nation in Cancer), the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio (No. 1 nationally in Cardiology & Heart Surgery) and the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, New York (No. 1 inOrthopedics). They also include 15 hospitals that ranked among the top 20 nationally in at least half a dozen different specialties, earning them each a berth on the Best Hospitals Honor Roll. Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston topped that list.
