Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Value Score?
The Value Score is HospitalCosts' proprietary grading system that rates hospitals from A (best value) to F (worst value) based on three factors: price relative to the national average (40%), CMS quality star rating (40%), and patient outcome measures including mortality, safety, and readmission rates (20%).
Where does this data come from?
Hospital quality ratings come from CMS Care Compare (Hospital General Information). Payment data is derived from Medicare IPPS (Inpatient Prospective Payment System) data. Under the Hospital Price Transparency Rule, all US hospitals are legally required to publish their prices.
What do the prices represent?
The prices shown are average total payments for inpatient stays, classified by DRG (Diagnosis Related Group). The "Total Payment" is the full charge, while "Medicare Pays" shows the Medicare portion. Actual costs may vary based on your insurance, length of stay, and complications.
