Casa Colina Hospital has received a Five-Star rating in the Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Overall Hospital Quality Star Ratings
for 2020.
Casa Colina Hospital is among just 8.9% of hospitals nationwide to receive Five Stars—the
highest possible score—out of more than 4,500 Medicare-certified
hospitals rated. The ratings were announced January 29, 2020.
The Overall Hospital Rating summarizes a variety of measures across seven
areas of quality into a single rating: Mortality, Safety of Care, Readmission,
Patient Experience, Effectiveness of Care, Timeliness of Care, and Efficient
Use of Medical Imaging.
The purpose of the
Overall Hospital Rating is to improve the quality of information posted on
Hospital Compare, a searchable website designed to help Medicare users make decisions on
where to receive care.
“We are honored to be recognized by CMS as one of the top hospitals
nationwide for overall quality of care and patient experience,”
said Felice L. Loverso, PhD, Casa Colina President and CEO. “Recognitions
like this are the direct result of Casa Colina’s commitment to clinical
excellence and the unflagging dedication of its employees.”
