Patient Experience (HCAHPS Survey)
Based on standardized surveys sent to random patients after discharge
Mortality & Outcomes
30-day mortality rates — percentage of patients who died within 30 days of admission
Percentage of pneumonia patients who died within 30 days. Reflects how well the hospital treats serious lung infections.
Infection Control
Standardized Infection Ratio (SIR) — below 1.0 is better than the national benchmark
Central line-associated bloodstream infection rate. A number below 1.0 means fewer infections than the national average — better than expected.
Catheter-associated urinary tract infection rate. SIR below 1.0 = better than national benchmark. Important if you'll be in the ICU.
MRSA bloodstream infection rate. MRSA is a drug-resistant bacteria — an SIR below 1.0 means this hospital has fewer cases than expected nationally.
Clostridioides difficile (C. diff) infection rate. This gut bacteria can cause severe diarrhea — SIR below 1.0 is better than the national benchmark.
30-Day Readmission Rates
Lower readmission rates indicate better discharge planning and post-hospital care
Percentage of pneumonia patients readmitted within 30 days. Reflects quality of treatment and discharge instructions.
Timely & Effective Care
How consistently this hospital follows proven care processes, compared with the US average
Median time patients spent in the emergency department from arrival until they left, excluding patients transferred to another facility or psychiatric patients. Across US hospitals the typical (median) time is about 2.5 hours.
Percentage of ER patients who left before being evaluated by a provider. Lower is better — a high rate suggests the ER is overcrowded or understaffed.
Percentage of healthcare workers who received the influenza vaccine. Vaccinated staff protect vulnerable patients from flu transmission during hospitalization.
Percentage of inpatients who received recommended blood clot prevention (VTE prophylaxis). Blood clots in hospitalized patients are one of the most common preventable causes of death.
Percentage of patients discharged with prescriptions for two or more opioids, or an opioid plus a benzodiazepine, at the same time. Lower is better — combining these drugs raises the risk of overdose.
Medicare Payment Estimates
What Medicare pays this hospital for common procedures vs the national average
Medicare payment amounts are risk-adjusted averages. Actual patient costs depend on insurance plan, deductibles, and other factors.
