About the Medicare star rating

CMS (the federal Medicare agency) gives many hospitals an overall rating from 1 to 5 stars, based on measures of mortality, safety, readmissions, patient experience and timely care. It is one piece of information: ask your doctor what matters for your care. See the full Medicare profile →

Medicare quality data

What Lake Cumberland Regional Hospital reported to Medicare (CMS), the federal agency that publishes these results for hospitals nationwide. These are averages for many patients, not a prediction for any one person: ask your doctor what matters for your care. In a medical emergency, call 911.

What patients said (patient survey)

What this means: Patients who stayed overnight answered a national survey (HCAHPS) about their stay. More stars mean patients reported a better experience than at other hospitals. The percentages show how often patients gave the best answer, next to the national average.

Infections caught in the hospital

What this means: CMS compares the number of infections patients caught in this hospital with the number expected for a hospital like it. The number shown is that ratio: below 1 means fewer infections than expected, above 1 means more. “Better” or “worse” is shown only when the difference is clear in the data.

Central line bloodstream infections (CLABSI)0Better than the national benchmark
Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI)0.423No different from the national benchmark
Surgical site infections after colon surgery1.382No different from the national benchmark
Surgical site infections after abdominal hysterectomy0No different from the national benchmark
MRSA bloodstream infections0.383No different from the national benchmark
Clostridioides difficile (C. diff) intestinal infections0.118Better than the national benchmark

Complications and deaths

What this means: Death rates are the share of patients who died within 30 days of going into the hospital for that condition, adjusted for how sick they were. PSI-90 combines several serious complications (a lower number is better). “No different from the national rate” is the most common result and means the hospital is in line with hospitals nationwide.

Deaths within 30 days: heart attack patients13.5%
Deaths within 30 days: heart failure patients11.8%
Deaths within 30 days: pneumonia patients18.8%
Deaths within 30 days: COPD patients11.7%
Deaths within 30 days: stroke patients14.2%
Deaths within 30 days: coronary bypass surgery (CABG)Not reported to Medicare
Serious complications (patient safety indicator PSI-90)0.88No different from the national rate
Complications after hip or knee replacementToo few cases to report

Source: Complications and Deaths - Hospital — CMS, released September 10, 2026; data from July 2022 to June 2025.

Return visits to the hospital (readmissions)

What this means: The share of patients who had to be admitted to a hospital again within 30 days after going home, adjusted for how sick they were. A lower percentage is better.

Returned to any hospital within 30 days (all patients)Not reported to Medicare
Readmitted within 30 days: heart attack13.6%
Readmitted within 30 days: heart failure20.6%
Readmitted within 30 days: pneumonia16.4%
Readmitted within 30 days: COPD19.7%
Readmitted within 30 days: coronary bypass surgeryNot reported to Medicare
Readmitted within 30 days: hip or knee replacementToo few cases to report

Source: Unplanned Hospital Visits - Hospital — CMS, released September 10, 2026; data from July 2023 to June 2025.

Emergency room times and sepsis care

What this means: ER time is the middle (median) time from arriving at the emergency room to leaving it; busier ERs usually have longer times, so the ER volume is shown too. Leaving before being seen: a lower percentage is better. Sepsis is a life-threatening reaction to an infection; a higher percentage means more patients got every recommended early step.

Emergency room volume (patients per year)High (40,000–59,999)
Average (median) time patients spent in the emergency room before leaving (OP-18b)180 minutesNational average: 162 minutes
Patients who left the emergency room before being seen (OP-22)1%National average: 2%
Sepsis patients who got all the recommended early care (SEP-1)52%National average: 65%

Prices

Every US hospital must publish its standard charges in a file that follows a federal (CMS) format. Below are 5 common services exactly as Lake Cumberland Regional Hospital lists them in its file. This is not a quote: what you pay depends on your insurance and plan, the doctors involved and the care you actually receive. Prices change: ask the hospital for an estimate before you schedule care (if you are uninsured or paying yourself, you have the right to a written “good faith estimate”). In a medical emergency, call 911.

What the prices mean
Hospital charge
The hospital’s list price (“gross charge”) before any discount or insurance. Few people pay this amount.
Cash price
The price the hospital offers if you pay yourself, without insurance (“discounted cash price”).
Insurance rates
The lowest and highest amounts the hospital has agreed with any insurance plan for the service (“de-identified minimum and maximum”), and some of the rates it lists by insurer and plan. Your share depends on your deductible, copay and coinsurance.
Hospital and doctor fees
A service can have a hospital (facility) fee and a separate doctor (professional) fee; the total for your care can include both, plus other services.
