About Christus Central Louisiana Surgical Hospital

Christus Central Louisiana Surgical Hospital 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 Medicare payment per documented procedure at Christus Central Louisiana Surgical Hospital is $17,275, near the national median for acute-care hospitals. Combined cost-and-quality value comes to 54/100 — a middling result, reflecting either average quality at average cost or trade-offs in one direction.

Ownership is for-profit, which puts Christus Central Louisiana Surgical Hospital in the investor-owned segment of U.S. hospitals. The category is overrepresented in some markets and absent in others, and the CMS measure set treats it identically to non-profits for reporting. The CMS payment record for Christus Central Louisiana Surgical Hospital lists 8 distinct DRG codes — a mid-range procedure mix, including Heart Failure and Shock with CC, Heart Failure and Shock with MCC, Kidney and Urinary Tract Infections without MCC. Emergency services are not offered, which is unusual for an acute-care facility — most often reflects a specialty hospital or non-traditional inpatient model.
