Ohio children's hospitals shine in new U.S. News rankings

Zoom out: The state's top honors went to Cincinnati Children's Hospital and Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, both of which made the publication's national "Honor Roll" — the list of the 10 best children's hospitals in the country.

• Cincinnati ranked among the nation's top six in nine of 11 specialties, taking first place in pediatric cancer, diabetes and endocrinology, and gastroenterology.

By the numbers: Cleveland Clinic Children's earned its highest marks (No. 16) in both cardiology and gastroenterology.

• UH Rainbow Babies & Children's scored top 15 rankings in four specialties, including 10th in neonatology.

Between the lines: This year's rankings include, for only the second time, a ranking in Pediatric & Adolescent Behavioral Health, which evaluates hospitals' care for children and teens with autism, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and substance use disorders.

• All six Ohio hospitals reviewed landed in the nation's Top 50 for that category.
