The latest (2022-23) U.S. News & World Report (USNWR) survey of U.S. hospitals identified fifty hospitals as being the best in the U.S. for pediatric heart care. Among these top-ranked pediatric heart hospitals, three were based in the seven-state Great Plains region of the country.  Multiple hospitals in the region provide pediatric cardiology and heart surgery services, but these three hospitals that earned a top 50 spot in the USNWR national survey stand out as the top-ranked pediatric heart hospitals in the Great Plains region:
