Patient survey detail — the questions feeding the Patient Experience domain above expand ↓
CMS computes the Patient Experience domain from the federal HCAHPS survey. Each bar below is one survey question; the percentage is the share of Hill's recent patients who gave the most positive response. HCAHPS percentages aren't directly comparable across all measures — see the methodology page for how CMS weights them.
- Communication with Nurses N/A
- Communication with Doctors N/A
- Hospital Cleanliness N/A
- Hospital Quietness N/A
- Staff Responsiveness N/A
- Discharge Information N/A
- Overall Hospital Rating (9 or 10) N/A
- Would Recommend Hospital N/A
Percentages represent patients who gave the most positive response. Survey conducted by CMS through the HCAHPS program.

About this data
Quality and ratings data are sourced from the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Hospital Compare program. Star ratings are CMS's own calculation; CareRanks does not modify or re-weight them. Facility-level details (address, beds, ownership, teaching status) come from CMS provider files and the CMS Provider of Services file.
Pricing data, where shown, is drawn from the hospital's own Machine-Readable File (MRF) published under the federal Hospital Price Transparency Rule. See our methodology for the full update cadence and limitations.
