Minneapolis , MN — Today, Minneapolis VA Medical Center announced that it received five of five stars in an overall hospital quality star rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid
Services (CMS), an independent, nationwide health care quality review. The Minneapolis VA Medical Center is one of only two hospitals to achieve this rating in the Twin Cities metro area
according to the Hospital Quality Reporting 2025 release. CMS ratings are based on measures across five quality areas including mortality, safety of care, readmission, patient experience,
and timely and effective care. This is the second year in a row Minneapolis VA has received five of five stars. “In addition to this achievement, your contributions have also helped us to
achieve new all-time highs in our Veteran satisfaction surveys,” said Minneapolis VA Chief of Staff Michael Armstrong in message to all clinical staff. “In our internal survey of over 2000
Veterans in the last seven weeks, we scored over 95% for trust and 97% for experience.” According to CMS.gov, the national average hospital overall star rating is three of five stars.
