The MMD Hospital View provides a user friendly way to compare hospitals on quality of care (e.g., readmissions and unplanned hospital visits, safety and patient experience) and cost of care (e.g., Medicare spending). Users can visually analyze a hospital’s metrics and performance scores and compare with other hospitals based on: geography (e.g., county, state, and national), hospital type (e.g., acute care and critical access), hospital ownership (e.g., government, physician, proprietary, tribal, and voluntary), and/or hospital size (i.e., number of beds). (Use of the Chrome browser is recommended.)

Attention Users of Assistive Technologies

This tool is designed to display selected measures from the Hospital Compare dataset in an interactive and primarily visual way. It does have support for users of assistive technologies via data download functionality, which can be navigated to via keyboard and without visual queues. Users seeking an accessible experience are advised to stop at the data download functionality as elements beyond that point are not compatible with accessibility software. The next paragraph provides information on the elements on this page.
