February 18, 2020 – Mitchell County Hospital District in Colorado City, Texas today announced it has been
named a 2020 Top 100 Critical Access Hospital by The Chartis Center for Rural Health. This annual award
honoring rural hospital performance is determined by the results of iVantage Health Analytics’ Hospital
Strength INDEX®, which is celebrating its tenth anniversary in 2020.

“Mitchell County Hospital is proud to be recognized as one of the Top 100 Critical Access Hospitals in
the Nation for 5 consecutive years. This achievement reflects the dedication, professionalism &
compassion of our staff, as well as the trust and support this community has in our ability to
provide the highest level of care.” said Robbie Dewberry, CEO.

Based entirely on publicly available data, the INDEX is the industry’s most comprehensive and objective
assessment of rural hospital performance. Utilizing 50 independent indicators, the INDEX assesses
performance across eight pillars of performance that span market-, value- and finance-based categories.
Hospitals recognized as a Top 100 facility had one of the 100 highest overall scores among all Critical
Access Hospitals nationally.

“The Top 100 Critical Access Hospital award program reminds us that rural providers haven’t lost touch
with their mission and are committed to delivering better quality, better outcomes and better patient
satisfaction. It’s a pleasure to be able to not only recognize this year’s recipients, but our larger group of
top 100 alumni as we celebrate 10 years of The Hospital Strength INDEX,” said Michael Topchik, National
Leader, The Chartis Center for Rural Health.
