Fortune’s 17 best healthcare companies to work for

Seventeen healthcare organizations landed on Fortune’s 2026 list of the “100 Best Companies to Work For.”

Fortune partnered with Great Place to Work, a people analytics firm, to create the list. The firm surveyed employees at various organizations, gathering qualitative and quantitative feedback about workplace culture by asking them to rate 60 statements on a five-point scale and answer two open-ended questions. The list is based on employee feedback, and companies with the broadest sets of employees reporting positive experiences earn the highest rankings.

Employers must have 1,000 or more U.S. employees and be nongovernment organizations to be considered. Great Place to Work received more than 1.3 million survey responses in the last year, including more than 640,000 from employees at eligible companies.

The healthcare organizations featured include health systems, pharmaceutical companies and healthcare services companies.
