U.S. News & World Report Update
On August 5, 2024, U.S. News & World Report notified CAHME that the graduate healthcare management rankings will be annual. This is a significant change from the prior process of releasing rankings every 3 or 4 years. U.S. News reported that the rankings draw significant page views, which is attributed to the growing interest in healthcare management as a profession.
CAHME does NOT direct or endorse U.S. News methodology. CAHME provides to U.S. News a list of CAHME Accredited programs and two contacts per University.
CAHME is offering an information session on August 23, at 2:00 pm EDT to update program directors on the U.S. News & World Report process. At least one representative from each CAHME accredited program should attend the information session. The information session will be recorded.
CAHME created a dedicated webpage regarding the U.S. News & World Report rankings. This webpage includes a how-to-video, an FAQ, and details of CAHME’s role.

If you have any questions, contact Michelle Petruccelli, Manager, Accreditation Operations, at mpetruccelli@cahme.org.
