CMS Overall Hospital Quality Star Rating · Manati Medical Center Dr Otero Lopez
How was Manati Medical Center Dr Otero Lopez's 1-star rating calculated?
The CMS Overall Hospital Quality Star Rating applies to
acute care hospitals like Manati Medical Center Dr Otero Lopez. 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 how often patients return to the hospital within 30 days of discharge. Lower readmission rates suggest effective treatment and discharge planning.

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.
