Helios Hospitals demonstrates outstanding medical quality. The quality figures published for 2025 show that patients at Helios receive care at the highest level.
Which hospital offers the best treatment for me or my relatives? Reliable and transparent information about the quality of medical services is crucial for answering this question.
Outcome quality has been a core standard at Helios Hospitals for over 25 years and follows a threefold approach: measure comprehensively and consistently, publish results, and improve continuously. The goal is to outperform the national average for every medical target.
“Helios is consistently continuing its path of specialization in clusters and transparent publication of quality data. In the Berlin–Brandenburg cluster (Berlin-Buch, Emil von Behring, Bad Saarow), we were able to achieve all medical targets in 2025 with only a few exceptions. This result spans nearly all relevant specialties and demonstrates both the high quality of medical care and the effectiveness of the cluster-based specialization strategy,”
says Carmen Bier, Managing Director of Helios Hospital Berlin-Buch.
Within the cross-site Helios Hospitals Cluster Berlin-Brandenburg, medical care is provided at the highest level. Across all specialties—including cardiology, oncology, and surgery—medical expertise is combined with technological excellence.
Highly qualified specialists work in close interdisciplinary collaboration, ensuring comprehensive care that is consistently tailored to the needs of patients.
Quality results at Helios Hospitals have been around 90% for years. In 2025, they reached a new peak of nearly 92%.
Looking ahead, Helios aims to further develop its quality management approach: while traditional measurement looks backward, the future focus will be on using clinical data closer to real-time care and detecting risks earlier.
Outcome quality remains the key benchmark and will increasingly be supported by digital tools within ongoing care processes.
Through its cluster approach, Helios improves medical quality by pooling expertise and strengthening network collaboration for the benefit of patients.
