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 Madison 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.

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)15.7%
Not reported to MedicareReadmitted within 30 days: heart attack; Readmitted within 30 days: coronary bypass surgery
Too few cases to reportReadmitted within 30 days: heart failure; Readmitted within 30 days: pneumonia; Readmitted within 30 days: COPD; Readmitted within 30 days: hip or knee replacement

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)Low (under 20,000)
Average (median) time patients spent in the emergency room before leaving (OP-18b)107 minutesNational average: 162 minutes
Patients who left the emergency room before being seen (OP-22)1%National average: 2%

Source: Timely and Effective Care - Hospital — CMS, released October 19, 2026; data from January 2024 to December 2024.

Not reported to Medicare: the patient survey, infections caught in the hospital, complications and deaths. For these topics Medicare shows no result for this hospital (not reported, or too few cases).
