The Best-Equipped Hospitals in Latin America in 2023

While a number of rankings for Latin American hospitals exist, they are usually focused on the “best,” which is generally driven by a proprietary index created by the company producing the ranking. There isn’t much specificity in these rankings because they are focused on overall quality scores. As a result, sales/marketing/business intelligence professionals can’t rely on these reports for concrete data on the hospitals included.

That is what sets HospiRank apart.

Developed by Global Health Intelligence (GHI) and first published in 2017, HospiRank bases its ranking strictly on equipment. It features eight specific categories and includes the equipment amounts for each hospital as reported directly by each hospital. While equipment is just one of several components to determining the quality of a hospital, HospiRank is NOT meant to be a qualitative ranking or a resource for patients. Instead, it’s meant to help sales and marketing teams understand the resources that Latin American hospitals have in terms of base installed equipment.

While companies often charge significant sums for this kind of market intelligence, HospiRank is available for free download on GHI’s site. While it only represents a small part of the market intelligence data offered by Global Health Intelligence, it is a useful resource for understanding the medical equipment/device market in Latin America.
