About St Mary's Medical Center

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 payment per documented procedure at St Mary's Medical Center is $18,118 — among the higher-cost facilities in the dataset. The composite value score of 42/100 puts St Mary's Medical Center in the middle of the value distribution: not a standout choice on cost-vs-quality grounds, but not poor either.
Ownership is for-profit, which puts St Mary's Medical Center 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.
