U.S. News & World Report named 26 Intermountain Health hospitals to its 2026 Best Hospitals for Maternity Care for mom and baby outcomes, education, and patient satisfaction.
The 26 hospitals earned a high-performing designation in maternity care for uncomplicated pregnancies in areas such as cesarean sections in lower-risk pregnancies, vaginal births after cesarean section (VBAC) rates, newborn severe complications rates, birthing-friendly and education practices, and outcome disparities based on race/ethnicity, among other measures.

They include:
American Fork Hospital | Cassia Regional Hospital* | Cedar City Hospital* | Delta Community Hospital* | Garfield Memorial Hospital* | Heber Valley Hospital* | Holy Rosary Hospital | Intermountain Medical Center | Layton Hospital | LDS Hospital | Logan Regional Hospital | Lutheran Hospital | McKay-Dee Hospital | Orem Community Hospital | Park City Hospital | Platte Valley Hospital | Riverton Hospital | Saint Joseph Hospital | Sanpete Valley Hospital*| Sevier Valley Hospital*| Spanish Fork Hospital | St. George Regional Hospital* |St. James Hospital* | St. Mary's Regional Hospital | St. Vincent Regional Hospital | Utah Valley Hospital
U.S. News also recognizes Maternity Care Access Hospitals, which provide maternity services to communities that might otherwise have inadequate access to maternity care, sometimes referred to as "maternity care deserts." Nine Intermountain hospitals made the list (noted with an * above). "This recognition is meaningful because it reflects what families experience at the bedside: safe, consistent, high quality, compassionate care," said Sean Esplin, MD maternal fetal medicine physician and senior medical director of women’s health. "Our clinical program has worked across hospitals to align on proven evidence-based care practices to lower cesarean-section rates in low‑risk pregnancies, thoughtfully support VBAC deliveries, reduce newborn complications, elevate patient education, and advance equity so every mother and baby can expect excellent outcomes."
