About Riverwood Healthcare Center
Riverwood Healthcare 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.

Cost-wise, Riverwood Healthcare Center is mid-pack: $13,534 average payment across documented procedures, close to the median for U.S. acute-care facilities. Riverwood Healthcare Center'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. The CMS payment record for Riverwood Healthcare Center lists 16 distinct DRG codes — a mid-range procedure mix, including Renal Failure with CC, Respiratory System Diagnosis with Ventilator Support >96 Hours, Simple Pneumonia and Pleurisy with MCC. Emergency services are available, which is the norm for acute-care hospitals and a meaningful factor for any patient choosing a facility for unplanned care.
