OFFICIAL CMS STAR RATINGS Every facility displays its official CMS Overall Rating (1-5 stars) along with component scores. For hospitals: mortality, safety of care, readmission, patient experience, timeliness, and effectiveness of care. For nursing homes: health inspection, staffing, and quality measures. HCAHPS PATIENT SURVEYS (PREMIUM) Dive into the full Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems survey results — how patients rated communication with nurses and doctors, pain management, responsiveness, cleanliness, quietness, discharge information, and whether they'd recommend the hospital. Compare scores against state and national averages.
