Tallahassee, FL — HCA Florida Capital Hospital, a part of HCA Florida Healthcare, announced today that it ranks No. 5 among Florida hospitals for joint replacement surgery, according to new research released by Healthgrades, the leading resource consumers use to find a hospital or doctor.
This achievement, along with HCA Florida Capital Hospital’s additional recent accomplishments reflects HCA Florida Capital Hospital’s commitment to delivering the best care possible and distinguishes the facility as one of Florida’s leading hospitals for joint replacement surgery.

Healthgrades evaluates hospitals solely on what matters most — patient outcomes — to determine the top-performing hospitals for specialty care in each of the 32 states assessed. Healthgrades’ 2024 analysis revealed that patients who seek care at a hospital with rankings in their condition or procedure have a better chance of a good outcome than if they were treated at a facility that is not among the top 5 in Florida. This widening performance gap highlights the importance of selecting a top-rated program. In fact, from 2020 to 2022, patients treated at hospitals that received a state ranking for joint replacement surgery had a lower risk of experiencing a complication while in the hospital than if they were treated at hospitals that were not state-ranked for joint replacement.*
“Healthgrades is proud to recognize HCA Florida Capital Hospital as among the top 5 in Florida for joint replacement surgery,” said Brad Bowman, M.D., chief medical officer and head of data science at Healthgrades. “Hospitals with a No. 5 ranking in their state deliver consistently superior outcomes for the patients in their community. Consumers should feel confident knowing that they have access to top-ranked care for joint replacement surgery at HCA Florida Capital Hospital.”
