children's hospitals listed, using CMS data published October 2026.
Children's hospitals treat infants, children and adolescents, with pediatric specialists, equipment sized for children and units built around younger patients. CMS records them separately from general hospitals, and many report a different set of quality measures, so a blank figure here usually means the measure does not apply rather than a hospital performing poorly.

About children's hospitals
What is a children's hospital?
Children's hospitals treat infants, children and adolescents, with pediatric specialists, equipment sized for children and units built around younger patients. CMS records them separately from general hospitals, and many report a different set of quality measures, so a blank figure here usually means the measure does not apply rather than a hospital performing poorly.
How many children's hospitals are there?
We list 94 children's hospitals that report to Medicare (CMS), in 33 states; Texas has the most (16). States with fewer than 3 are listed on this page, with a link to each hospital, rather than on a page of their own.
