CMS Overall Hospital Quality Star Rating · Providence Seaside Hospital
How was Providence Seaside Hospital's 3-star rating calculated?
The CMS Overall Hospital Quality Star Rating applies to
acute care hospitals like Providence Seaside 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.

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.

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

Safety of Care
Same as National Average
Tracks hospital-acquired infections, surgical complications, and other patient safety indicators. Lower rates indicate better safety practices.
Measures how often patients return to the hospital within 30 days of discharge. Lower readmission rates suggest effective treatment and discharge planning.

Providence's recent patients who gave the most positive
response. HCAHPS percentages aren't directly comparable across all measures —

Medicare quality scoring (MIPS)
187 of these clinicians have a published
Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) final score.
Of those, 101
(54%) 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.

facilities (critical access, rural emergency, freestanding psych, IRF/LTCH)

A clinician may also practice at other facilities; "affiliated" means this hospital is on their CMS
profile, not that they exclusively work here.
Procedure volumes are Medicare fee-for-service counts from the CMS
clinician utilization file (all practice locations, not just this
hospital). Industry payment totals are from CMS Open Payments,
program year 2024, and include meals, travel, consulting, and
speaking fees; payments are legal and common — we show them for
transparency, not as a quality judgment.

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.
