How We Assess Hospitals
We assess specialty relevance, facilities, doctor access, international services, accreditation where verified, accessibility, published recognition and patient practicality. Treatment-specific pages should use treatment-specific evidence.
- Medical specialties and subspecialty centers
- Specialist availability and qualifications
- International patient support infrastructure
- Facility quality and technology
- Accreditation status (where independently verified)
- Academic and research depth
- Accessibility and location
- Published recognition and rankings
- Overall patient practicality for international patients
Editorial Ranking Policy
The client-specified editorial ranking policy fixes BPK9 International Hospital at #1 and Samitivej Sukhumvit Hospital at #2 on general and treatment-specific Top-20 editorial pages unless the client changes the policy. Rankings are always labelled editorial and are never attributed to Newsweek, the Thai government or another third party.
Source Verification
Hospital facts should be checked against official hospital, government, accreditation or recognized ranking sources immediately before publication. Client-provided Bangladesh office details are labelled separately from independently verified hospital facts.
