McAllen, Texas — Rio Grande Regional Hospital has been recognized as a 5-star hospital on the inaugural Forbes Top Hospitals 2026 list, a national rating that highlights hospitals for quality, safety, patient outcomes and patient experience.
This recognition reflects Rio Grande Regional Hospital’s focus on delivering high-quality care close to home and helps patients identify hospitals that perform strongly across measures that matter most to families, including safety and clinical outcomes.
Forbes developed the rating system to help patients better understand where they can receive exceptional care. The rankings are based on validated measures from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, with the greatest weight placed on clinical outcomes such as mortality, infections and readmissions, along with patient experience and value measures.
“Earning a 5-star rating from Forbes is a meaningful reflection of the work our teams put into caring for our community,” said Laura Disque, CEO of Rio Grande Regional Hospital. “Every day, our physicians, nurses and colleagues show an unwavering commitment to safety, quality and compassion. This recognition reinforces the impact of their dedication and the trust our patients place in us.”
Rio Grande Regional Hospital remains focused on advancing safe, compassionate care through continued investment in people, programs and technology to meet the needs of the Rio Grande Valley.
