ATLANTIC CITY - AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center has earned four stars in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Hospital Quality Star Ratings annual update, making it the highest rated acute care hospital in southern New Jersey.
ARMC increased its rating from three to four stars between 2022 and 2023 while many acute care hospitals in the state saw their ratings decrease. The overall timeframe of the data CMS used to calculate the 2023 ratings was April 2018 through January 2022.

In the face of challenges that led other hospitals to decline in rating, our four stars are a testament to the high-quality care and excellent outcomes we deliver to the communities we serve.
