About Vermilion Behavioral Health Systems
Vermilion Behavioral Health Systems 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.
Cost-wise, Vermilion Behavioral Health Systems is mid-pack: $13,836 average payment across documented procedures, close to the median for U.S. acute-care facilities. Vermilion Behavioral Health Systems'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 for-profit, which puts Vermilion Behavioral Health Systems 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. The CMS payment record for Vermilion Behavioral Health Systems lists 18 distinct DRG codes — a mid-range procedure mix, including Cellulitis with MCC, Heart Failure and Shock with CC, Simple Pneumonia and Pleurisy with MCC. Emergency services are not offered, which is unusual for an acute-care facility — most often reflects a specialty hospital or non-traditional inpatient model.
