Buena Vista Regional Medical Center has been recognized by Becker’s Hospital Review as one of 250 hospitals in the nation to receive a five-star rating for patient experience. BVRMC was one of nine hospitals in Iowa to receive this recognition.

Recognitions are based on Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. The ratings reflect surveys collected between October 1, 2024, and September 30, 2025, and were released in July 2026.

“Our goal is to make every patient feel confident in the care they receive and valued throughout their experience at BVRMC,” says BVRMC CEO Rob Colerick. “This recognition reflects the compassion, attention and commitment our staff bring to every interaction, and we are proud to be a trusted source of quality care for our communities.”
