Context that affects how to read this rating

Perry County General Hospital is a Rural Emergency Hospital (REH) — a facility designation created by Congress in 2023 for rural hospitals that converted from full inpatient service to emergency department + 24-hour observation only. REH facilities do not report standard inpatient quality measures because they don't admit inpatients. Quality oversight for REH is via the CMS REH Conditions of Participation and state survey agencies.

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.
