Hospital Quality Benchmarking
CMS Hospital Compare data across 6,100+ hospitals, star ratings, mortality, readmissions, patient safety indicators, HCAHPS scores, and value-based purchasing performance. Compare any hospital to peers, regionally or nationally.
You ask
“Compare quality scores for this hospital to the 5 nearest competitors”
Then follow up
“Which of these competitors has improved the most on readmissions in the past 3 years?”
“How does this hospital rank in the state on patient safety indicators?”
Financial Trending (5–7 years)
CMS cost reports covering revenue, operating margin, beds, discharges, case mix index, and FTE counts going back 5–7 years. Identify financial trajectory, cost structure, and whether a facility is growing or contracting.
You ask
“Show 5-year financial trends for this hospital”
Then follow up
“Is their operating margin improving or deteriorating? How does it compare to the state median?”
“What’s their revenue per discharge trend? How does it compare to similar-sized hospitals?”
Price Transparency (6B+ rates)
Negotiated rates from 6,100+ hospitals, over 6 billion rate records by payer, procedure, and billing code. Compare a hospital’s rates to state medians, find outliers, and identify pricing strategy by payer.
You ask
“Compare this hospital’s knee replacement rates to state median by payer”
Then follow up
“Which payers are paying the most above median at this hospital? Is there a pattern by procedure?”
“Show me the spread between their highest and lowest payer rate for this DRG.”
Workforce Analytics
2.6M providers linked to 273K facilities with specialty, taxonomy, and geographic data. See the full provider roster at any hospital, identify specialty gaps, and search for providers within a radius.
You ask
“Show the full provider roster by specialty at this hospital”
Then follow up
“Which specialties are understaffed relative to peer hospitals of the same size?”
“How many of their providers are also affiliated with a competing hospital system?”
Compliance Screening (130+ sources)
Screen every provider at a hospital across 130+ enforcement sources, OIG exclusions, SAM.gov debarment, 50 state medical boards, FDA debarment, NPDB, CMS penalties, and court records. Get a risk-scored compliance report for any facility.
You ask
“Screen all providers at this hospital, who has flags?”
Then follow up
“For the flagged providers, show me the details, what enforcement action, when, and which board?”
“How does this hospital’s compliance rate compare to the state average?”
Litigation History
10M+ court cases with full opinion text, citation lookup, and trend analysis. Find every lawsuit involving a hospital, identify recurring liability patterns, and track litigation by year and court.
You ask
“How many lawsuits has this hospital been involved in? Trend by year.”
Then follow up
“What are the most common case types? Malpractice, employment, billing disputes?”
“Are there any cases involving the same physician repeatedly? Show me the pattern.”
CMS Deficiency Analysis
408K+ CMS inspection deficiencies with severity tags, citation codes, and facility history. Identify recurring compliance failures and compare deficiency rates across comparable facilities.
You ask
“Show inspection deficiencies for this facility”
Then follow up
“Are there repeat deficiencies in the same citation category across multiple survey cycles?”
“How does this facility’s deficiency count compare to the regional average?”
Competitive Landscape
Find peer hospitals by size, system ownership, geography, or quality tier. Identify acquisition targets, map market share by system, and analyze competitive positioning across a region.
You ask
“Find hospitals similar to this one in the Southeast”
Then follow up
“Which of these are independent hospitals not yet part of a major system?”
“Rank them by financial health, which are growing and which are contracting?”
Not clean, SaaS-y queries. These are the messy, multi-domain questions a health-system executive actually asks on Monday morning, each one normally means Definitive plus Vizient plus a consulting deck plus legal review.
“Pull the quality scores, negotiated rates, and provider roster for our top 3 regional competitors. How do we rank on readmissions, and are they paying their surgeons more than we are?”
“Show me 5-year revenue and margin trends for this acquisition target, their full CMS deficiency history, and any litigation trend vs. peers. Are we buying a turnaround or a trap?”
“Screen all 1,200 providers on our medical staff across 130+ compliance sources. Cross-reference the flagged ones with their Medicare revenue, then tell me which service lines take the biggest hit if we have to terminate.”
“We’re expanding into orthopedics. Find every ortho surgeon within 50 miles who isn’t affiliated with a system, their billing volume, quality, and who’s paying them. Rank by recruitability.”
“Give me a full competitive landscape, quality rankings, financial health, ownership changes, litigation trends, and CMS deficiency history, for every hospital in our HSA.”
“What are this hospital’s negotiated rates for joint replacement by payer? Compare to the state median and to ours, where are we overpaying and where do we have renegotiation leverage?”
