CMS Overall Hospital Quality Star Rating · Greenwich Hospital
How was Greenwich Hospital's 4-star rating calculated?
The CMS Overall Hospital Quality Star Rating applies to
acute care hospitals like Greenwich Hospital. CMS standardizes
every underlying measure against the national rate, computes
a weighted score for each of five domains, sums them by the
fixed weights below, and assigns 1–5 stars using k-means
clustering across all reporting hospitals.

Context that affects how to read this rating
Greenwich Hospital is a Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH), meaning it serves a high proportion of low-income and uninsured patients. Star ratings don't adjust for patient socioeconomic mix.
How star meaning varies by hospital type.
This CMS Overall Star Rating only applies to acute care
hospitals. Children's hospitals (Pediatric Quality), psychiatric
hospitals (IPFQR), inpatient rehabilitation facilities (IRF QRP),
long-term acute care hospitals (LTACH QRP), and VA medical centers
each use separate quality programs designed for their patient
populations. Comparing star ratings across these facility types
isn't meaningful — see the methodology page for the full mapping
of which program applies to which facility.

Mortality
Better than National Average
Measures the rate at which patients die within 30 days of hospital admission for specific conditions. A lower mortality rate indicates better outcomes.

Medicare quality scoring (MIPS)
785 of these clinicians have a published

Of those, 219
(28%) score above the national median of 85.5.
MIPS scoring is heavily compressed at the top of the 0–100 range, so individual scores
are not a reliable consumer signal. We surface roster-level coverage and the share
above the national median instead.

How nearby comparisons work
Quality and ratings data are sourced from the U.S. Centers for
Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Hospital Compare program.
Star ratings are CMS's own calculation; CareRanks does not modify
or re-weight them. Facility-level details (address, beds,
ownership, teaching status) come from CMS provider files and the
CMS Provider of Services file.
Pricing data, where shown, is drawn from the hospital's own
Machine-Readable File (MRF) published under the federal Hospital
Price Transparency Rule. See our methodology for the full update
cadence and limitations.
