About Bedford Va Medical Center

Bedford Va Medical Center does not carry an overall CMS Hospital Compare star rating — typically because the hospital is too small, too specialized, or reports too few of the underlying measures to compute the composite. The CMS Hospital Compare measures break roughly evenly between better- and worse-than-benchmark performance, which is the modal pattern across U.S. hospitals.

Average payment per documented procedure at Bedford Va Medical Center is $24,908 — among the higher-cost facilities in the dataset. The composite value score of 42/100 puts Bedford Va Medical Center in the middle of the value distribution: not a standout choice on cost-vs-quality grounds, but not poor either.

Bedford Va Medical Center's ownership category — Veterans Health Administration — falls outside the three dominant categories (non-profit, for-profit, government). The CMS Hospital Compare program treats all ownership types under the same measure rubric. The CMS payment record for Bedford Va Medical Center lists 9 distinct DRG codes — a mid-range procedure mix, including Simple Pneumonia and Pleurisy with CC, Major Hip and Knee Joint Replacement, Pulmonary Edema and Respiratory Failure. Emergency services are not offered, which is unusual for an acute-care facility — most often reflects a specialty hospital or non-traditional inpatient model.
