BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Sept. 30, 2025 – Encompass Health today announced it has been named “America’s Most Awarded Leader in Inpatient Rehabilitation” by Newsweek and Statista for the sixth consecutive year. Newsweek and Statista recently released the 2025 America’s Best Physical Rehabilitation Centers list, which highlights 320 inpatient physical rehabilitation centers across the country. The list includes a record-breaking 66 Encompass Health hospitals across 27 states — the most hospitals included on the list for one provider.
According to Newsweek, “The facilities recognized on this list exemplify the best patient care practices in inpatient physical rehabilitation and set an example for others.”
The ranking is based on four data pillars: quality metrics published by the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services; results from a national online survey conducted by Newsweek among experts in the field; accreditation data provided by the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities and the Model Systems Knowledge Translation Center; and Google reviews, an indicator of patient satisfaction.
“Encompass Health’s consistent presence on this prestigious list, with more hospitals included annually since its inception than any other provider, exemplifies our long-standing commitment to high-quality patient care and excellent outcomes,” said Encompass Health President and CEO Mark Tarr. “Our decades of experience, unparalleled clinical expertise and deep commitment to personalized care make us the trusted choice for inpatient rehabilitation. We look forward to continuing to strengthen that trust with our patients, partners and communities.”
