Forbes has recognized Virtua Health on its 2026 list of America’s Best Companies. The Marlton-based health system is among 11 healthcare and social-services organizations nationwide that are included on the ranked list. Virtua is also the only New Jersey healthcare firm named to the list.

The complete Forbes ranking features 500 companies and organizations representing more than 50 industries. According to Forbes, the selection process encompassed more than 100 metrics across 11 categories, including financial performance, customer sentiment, employee ratings, and media sentiment.

“We partnered with a half-dozen data firms, collected hundreds of measures of company quality with millions of datapoints, and turned them into an index to evaluate thousands of the largest public and private companies in America,” said Alan Schwarz, assistant managing editor at Forbes, on the company website.

This recognition adds to Virtua’s growing list of national honors. Earlier this year, Virtua earned its seventh consecutive appearance on Forbes’s list of America's Best Employers in New Jersey. Virtua is also featured on Newsweek’s 2025 list of America’s Greatest Workplaces and its inaugural list of America’s Greatest Workplaces in Health Care. Modern Healthcare also selected Virtua as a Best Place to Work in Healthcare in 2025.

“Virtua remains that trusted choice for personalized, compassionate care for the people of South Jersey and beyond,” said Dennis W. Pullin, FACHE, president and CEO of Virtua Health. “Our commitment to excellence and the evolution of clinical capacities is driving national recognition like never before. It is a testament to our workforce and the ways they show up each day with pride and purpose.”
