Four Winds

Four Winds 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.

On payment metrics, Four Winds runs expensive: average Medicare payment across documented procedures is $24,270, in the upper bracket of U.S. hospitals. The composite value score of 42/100 puts Four Winds in the middle of the value distribution: not a standout choice on cost-vs-quality grounds, but not poor either.

Four Winds is investor-owned — a proprietary hospital, the minority ownership pattern in U.S. acute care. For-profit hospitals are more concentrated in some regions (Florida, Texas, Nevada) than others. 15 distinct procedures are documented in CMS payment files for Four Winds. Top examples: Simple Pneumonia and Pleurisy with CC, Pulmonary Edema and Respiratory Failure, Vaginal Delivery without Complicating Diagnoses. Emergency services are not offered, which is unusual for an acute-care facility — most often reflects a specialty hospital or non-traditional inpatient model.
