WEST TENNESSEE HEALTHCARE HENRY COUNTY HOSPITAL

Understanding WEST TENNESSEE HEALTHCARE HENRY COUNTY HOSPITAL's Pricing & Quality Profile

WEST TENNESSEE HEALTHCARE HENRY COUNTY HOSPITAL is a government - hospital district or authority-owned acute care hospitals in PARIS, TN, reporting to CMS under the Hospital Compare and Care Compare programs. Its overall CMS Star Rating is 3 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 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.

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: 2 same as avg. For 30-day readmission: 1 above avg, 5 same as 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.
