As the 19th most populous state in the U.S., over 6 million people call Maryland home. The people of Maryland rely on 72 hospitals and 10 integrated delivery networks (IDNs), as reported by Definitive Healthcare data, to provide them with exceptional medical care.
A vital financial metric of hospitals is net patient revenue (NPR), which is the amount of money generated for patient services from commercial insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, and other sources. Below, we’ve collected a list of the top 20 hospitals in Maryland based on NPR using HospitalView.
What Maryland hospitals have the highest net patient revenue?
The Johns Hopkins Hospital located in Baltimore has the highest NPR of Maryland hospitals at $2.4 billion, according to the most recent 12-month interval tracked in our database. This hospital also has the highest number of staffed beds, allowing it to treat more patients at the same time, which likely contributes to its high NPR. It’s #36 on our list of top U.S. hospitals by NPR.
The Johns Hopkins Hospital, in addition to being the #1 hospital in Maryland for both adults and children, has been at the forefront of many medical advancements. This non-profit hospital was the first to use rubber gloves during surgery and the first to develop cardiopulmonary resuscitation and renal dialysis.
Baltimore is home to many of the top hospitals in Maryland, with the second-place hospital (and the third) also bunkering down in this city. The University of Maryland Medical Center, which belongs to the University of Maryland Medical System—along with three other hospitals on the top 20 list—has an NPR of $1.8 billion. This academic teaching hospital has a trauma center, a children’s hospital, and a comprehensive cancer center.
Rounding out our top three hospitals in Maryland is the Sinai Hospital. This hospital has only 196 beds available (almost four times less than the second-place hospital) but discharged more than 168,000 patients in 2023—far exceeding any other hospital on this list. This private hospital partners with the Sinai Mitzvah Foundation to engage the nearby community through hospital programs, educational initiatives, and financial support.
What information can we get from net patient revenue?
Net patient revenue is an important metric for understanding a hospital’s financial state. NPR directly reflects the revenue generated from patient care services, making it a key metric for assessing financial performance. When combined with metrics such as the number of discharges, we can gain a deeper understanding of a hospital’s financial efficiency. This combination allows us to see how much revenue a hospital makes (on average) per patient.
