About Highland Hospital
Highland 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 Highland Hospital is $13,611, near the national median for acute-care hospitals. Highland Hospital's value rating (60/100) reflects solid quality-for-cost performance: not the absolute best on either dimension alone, but a strong combination.
Ownership is non-profit, the dominant pattern in U.S. acute care. Non-profit hospitals generally reinvest operating margins rather than distribute them; the federal CMS measure set treats them identically to other ownership categories for reporting purposes. 15 distinct procedures are documented in CMS payment files for Highland Hospital. Top examples: Intracranial Hemorrhage or Cerebral Infarction with MCC, Kidney and Urinary Tract Infections without MCC, Respiratory System Diagnosis with Ventilator Support >96 Hours. Emergency services are not offered, which is unusual for an acute-care facility — most often reflects a specialty hospital or non-traditional inpatient model.
