What is the total # of University Medical Centers in the US?

125, as listed here:

Let me know if there's anything else you need on this.

kylemcna-ga,


I count 190.

Note that some of the listings involved judgement calls, and no doubt,
another counter would come up with a slightly different number.

For instance, the Florida listing for:



Shands HealthCare*
   Shands at AGH
   Shands at Lake Shore
   Shands at Live Oak
   Shands at Starke
   Shands Jacksonville


I counted as five centers, though others may reasonably count it differently.


Cheers,

paf
