Voting opens for U.S. News ‘Best Hospitals’ survey

The “Best Hospitals” and “Best Children’s Hospitals” surveys sponsored by U.S. News and World Report have opened on Doximity, with staggered rollout of access to eligible physicians.

All board-certified clinicians with registered Doximity accounts can expect to have their voting instructions available in Doximity by Friday, Feb. 21.

The survey typically stays open for about four weeks.

A webpage with answers to common questions can be found at VUMC.org/main/besthospitals. This includes a link to eligibility criteria and updates in methodology. It also includes contact information for Doximity support to troubleshoot any technical issues.

If you don’t see an email invitation, check your spam folder or log in to your Doximity account to find your voting notice.

By taking part in the survey, VUMC clinicians have a voice in the rankings, which are consulted by patients, trainees, peers and donors.

Updates will made to the FAQ page as they are received.
