The score evaluates an organization’s performance across a variety of important online characteristics, such as visibility, engagement and consumer sentiment. The higher the score, the greater the likelihood that the location will stand out among search engine and map results, as well as review sites, showing that they are doing the right things to be seen and selected by new consumers.

The score is calculated on a 1,000-point scale, where 1,000 is the highest possible rating on the scale and 100 the lowest. A score of 800 or above is considered very impressive. Reputation.com launched the award program in 2022 to recognize various businesses across the country. Each year, more UHS sites have hit or exceeded the 800 number: 39 locations in 2022, 62 locations in 2023 and 75 this year. 

'“We are honored to receive this outstanding national recognition,” said John Carrigg, president and chief executive officer of UHS. “This is a strong validation of those who provide care at our hospitals and offices, and their commitment to providing a great patient experience.”
