What this data shows
The profile above reads Ridgecrest Regional Hospital entirely through federal records, so it is worth knowing what each figure can and cannot tell you. The CMS Hospital Overall Rating is not published for every facility is a composite that blends mortality, readmission, patient experience, safety, and timely and effective care measures into a single number, which means two hospitals with the same star count can differ sharply on the measures a particular patient cares about most, such as surgical complication rates or how a unit handles a specific condition. The ownership type, facility category, and emergency services flag describe the operating model rather than the quality of any single department, and the 96 affiliated clinicians listed are providers who report a Medicare billing relationship with this CCN, not a guarantee that a given doctor practices here today. For care decisions, treat these numbers as a starting map, then confirm specifics with the facility, your insurer, and your own physician. See CMS Care Compare for measure-level detail and the methodology behind the star rating at CMS, and verify any individual clinician through the CMS NPI Registry.
