Understanding Phelps Memorial Health Center's Pricing & Quality Profile

Phelps Memorial Health Center is a voluntary non-profit - private-owned critical access hospitals in Holdrege, NE, reporting to CMS under the Hospital Compare and Care Compare programs. CMS has not issued an overall Star Rating for this facility, which typically means the hospital is new, is specialty-focused (children’s, cancer, or psychiatric), or did not meet reporting thresholds. Because it reports emergency services, its patient mix and its exposure to out-of-network balance-billing under the No Surprises Act both differ from a scheduled-procedures-only facility.

Across CMS's three benchmarked quality categories, this facility's mortality reads 2 same as avg, patient safety reads 1 same as avg, and 30-day readmission reads 1 above avg, 5 same as avg, 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.
