Times Now Network conducted a survey where different hospital chains were ranked to understand how well the hospitals and healthcare institutions in India work and if the services offered by them adhere to the benchmarks given by NABH, under the Quality council of India. The parameters on which these hospitals were judged were VFM or value for money, quality of treatment, team of consultants and doctors, infrastructure, hygiene and cleanliness, faculties and public convenience, and innovation and research facilities. The factual scores were submitted by the institutions and held 60% weightage, while the perceptual scores held a weightage of 40% weightage. The institutes were asked to submit details and information including verification and validation by a research agency. The scores were also based on the perceptual survey, with a sample size of 3000, conducted across 16 cities, and then the final scores were calculated based on the weightages of the different parameters. Word of mouth is also considered in the survey as it holds a critical point in decision making. The results were announced in the latest India Health Summit, held at Taj Palace, Delhi on October 4, 2025. The Ranks Are As Followed The survey covered various critical care specialties, including cardiology, neurology, nephrology, oncology, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, urology, gastroenterology, and emergency and trauma. Among the lifestyle categories were dental health, orthopedics, diabetes care, IVF & fertility, and cosmetic and plastic surgery. The sample size was across 12 cities, which included 3300 doctors and patients with the ratio of 40:60. It was as followed:Delhi NCR had a sample size of 300 Mumbai had a sample size of 300 Chennai had a sample size of 300 Kolkata had a sample size of 300 Bengaluru had a sample size of 300 Hyderabad had a sample size of 300 Ahmedabad had a sample size of 250 Pune had a sample size of 250 Bhubaneswar had a sample size of 250 Jaipur had a sample size of 250 Lucknow had a sample size of 250 Kochi had a sample size of 250 In addition to this, for Factual Survey, over 1500 hospitals across India were targeted and connected. The main objective of this survey was to provide clarity that usually lacks in other ranking as they do not detail out on how the hospitals is performing better than others and on what parameters and hence it is difficult for patients to take an informed decision.
