Hospital Infrastructure in Maryland
Maryland is home to one of the world's most famous hospitals, Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, which has been ranked as the nation's top hospital for 23 consecutive years by U.S. News & World Report and remains a global leader in medical research and clinical care. The state operates 62 hospitals under a unique all-payer system in which the Health Services Cost Review Commission sets hospital rates for all payers, including Medicare. This system has helped control healthcare costs and reduce readmission rates. The University of Maryland Medical Center is the state's other major academic institution, with the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center serving as one of the world's premier trauma facilities. Maryland's proximity to Washington, D.C. means several hospitals serve patients from both jurisdictions. The National Institutes of Health Clinical Center in Bethesda is the world's largest hospital dedicated to clinical research. The state's hospital infrastructure is concentrated along the Baltimore-Washington corridor, with rural areas on the Eastern Shore and in western Maryland served by smaller community hospitals.
