Long-term acute care hospitals specialize in patients who require extended hospitalization, typically 25+ days, for complex medical conditions.

Why doesn't this hospital have a CMS star rating?CMS only publishes an overall star rating when a hospital reports enough measures — at least three measures in at least three of the five measure groups, one of which must be mortality or safety of care. This hospital did not meet that threshold in the current data release. Not rated does not mean poor quality.

Mortality & Outcomes

This hospital does not report mortality rates. This is common for specialty hospitals, rehabilitation facilities, and hospitals with low patient volumes in specific conditions.

Infection Control

Infection rate data (HAI/SIR) is not reported for this hospital. Hospitals with low patient volumes in ICU or surgical procedures may not meet the minimum threshold required by CMS for reporting.

Check Your Insurance Coverage

Before scheduling care at INTENSIVE SPECIALTY HOSPITAL, verify it is in your insurance network. Out-of-network care can result in significantly higher costs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an acute care hospital?▼
Acute care hospitals treat patients with serious illnesses or injuries that require immediate, short-term care. Most general hospitals fall into this category.
What does the CMS star rating mean?▼
CMS rates hospitals on a 1–5 star scale based on five quality groups: mortality, safety, readmissions, patient experience, and timely care. Higher stars mean better performance across these measures.
Is a higher star rating always better?▼
Generally yes, but consider your specific needs. A 3-star hospital might excel in cardiac care while scoring lower in other areas. Look at individual metrics relevant to your procedure.
How often is this data updated?▼
CMS updates hospital quality data quarterly (January, April, July, October). Overall star ratings are updated annually, usually in August.
What is HCAHPS?▼
HCAHPS (Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems) is a standardized patient satisfaction survey administered to random samples of hospital patients. Results reflect real patient experiences.
How do I read the infection rates?▼
Infection rates are shown as Standardized Infection Ratios (SIR). A SIR below 1.0 means fewer infections than nationally expected. A SIR of 0.5 means the hospital has half the expected infection rate — significantly better.
Does a lower star rating mean the hospital is unsafe?▼
Not necessarily. Lower-rated hospitals often serve sicker, more complex patient populations that make outcomes harder to achieve. Consider the full picture and consult your doctor.
Are there other hospitals in SHREVEPORT?▼
Yes — there are 9 other hospitals in SHREVEPORT, LA in the CMS database. Compare all hospitals in SHREVEPORT to find the best fit for your care needs.
