About Masonicare Health Center
Masonicare Health 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 Medicare payment per documented procedure at Masonicare Health Center is $17,504, near the national median for acute-care hospitals. The composite value score of 54/100 puts Masonicare Health Center in the middle of the value distribution: not a standout choice on cost-vs-quality grounds, but not poor either.
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. The CMS payment record for Masonicare Health Center lists 18 distinct DRG codes — a mid-range procedure mix, including Simple Pneumonia and Pleurisy with MCC, Septicemia or Severe Sepsis without Ventilator, 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.
