Infections, complications and deaths

Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services · compared with hospitals nationwide

Its rate of serious complications was same as national.

Serious complications

Serious complications (CMS PSI 90)Combines patient safety problems such as falls with fractures, bed sores, collapsed lungs, blood clots and infections after surgery. 1.00 is the national value; lower is better.
Same as national Ratio 0.99

Other complications

None of the other safety indicators CMS compares was statistically better or worse than national.

Pressure ulcers (bed sores)per 1,000 patients 0.61 0.63 Same as national
Falls in the hospital that caused a broken boneper 1,000 patients 0.27 0.27 Same as national
Collapsed lung caused by a medical procedureper 1,000 patients 0.21 0.21 Same as national

"Better" or "worse" means CMS found the difference from the national benchmark statistically significant; most hospitals are "no different". Infection results compare the infections a hospital reported with the number predicted for a hospital of its size and type (a ratio below 1 means fewer than predicted). Death and complication rates are risk-adjusted for how sick patients were. Each death rate counts deaths within 30 days of a hospital stay, pooled over one to three years of Medicare patients depending on the measure. About the data.

Medicare spending and payment programs

Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services

Hospital-acquired conditions · FY 2026
No penalty
Not in the worst-performing quarter on infections and patient-safety problems. 719 of 3,012 hospitals were penalized.
Medicare spending per patient
0.88
12% less than the national median per hospital stay (about $24,127 vs $27,417), counting Medicare spending from 3 days before admission to 30 days after discharge.

The Hospital-Acquired Condition Reduction Program cuts Medicare payments by 1% for the quarter of hospitals with the worst scores. The Hospital Value-Based Purchasing Program withholds a small share of every hospital's Medicare payments and pays it back according to the total performance score. A spending ratio of 1.00 equals the national median; spending reflects prices, the services patients received and care after discharge, not quality. Some hospitals, such as critical access, children's and cancer hospitals, are not part of these programs. About the data.
