F W Huston Medical Center is a voluntary non-profit - private-owned critical access hospitals in Winchester, KS, reporting to CMS under the Hospital Compare and Care Compare programs. No overall CMS Star Rating exists yet for this facility -- common for newly-reporting hospitals, specialty facilities (children’s, cancer, or psychiatric), or those below the reporting-threshold case volume. The facility reports emergency services, which affects both the case mix and the likelihood that patients encounter out-of-network balance-billing exposure under the No Surprises Act.
Across CMS's three benchmarked quality categories, this facility's mortality reads No data, patient safety reads No data, and 30-day readmission reads No data, each measured against the national average.
What "better/same/worse than average" means
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.
Published MRF pricing data is not currently indexed for this hospital.
Using this data to shop for care
Under the Hospital Price Transparency Rule, providers must post standard charges in a machine-readable file; contact the hospital's billing office directly for a Good Faith Estimate specific to your procedure and coverage. Patients should always verify insurance network status, request an itemized estimate before scheduled procedures, and compare negotiated rates across multiple facilities when time allows. This page provides publicly reported CMS data for informational reference, not medical or financial advice.
