Understanding CAREPOINT HEALTH-HOBOKEN UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER's Pricing & Quality Profile

CAREPOINT HEALTH-HOBOKEN UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTER is a voluntary non-profit - church-owned acute care hospitals in HOBOKEN, NJ, reporting to CMS under the Hospital Compare and Care Compare programs. Its overall CMS Star Rating is 1 out of 5, a composite measure that weighs mortality, safety of care, readmission, patient experience, and timely and effective care against national benchmarks. The facility does not report emergency services, which typically means scheduled procedures only.

On quality measures, CMS classifies each indicator as better, same, or worse than the national average. For mortality: 4 same as avg. For patient safety: 3 same as avg. For 30-day readmission: 3 same as avg, 2 below avg. These indicators are risk-adjusted to account for patient severity and are drawn from Medicare claims data. A "same as average" result is the most common category for US hospitals and does not imply poor care; "worse than average" findings are statistically significant and warrant follow-up with the facility's quality department.
