About the Medicare star rating

Medicare quality data
What Mercy Medical Center - Cedar Rapids 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.

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) | 1.124No different from the national benchmark |
|---|---|
| Catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) | 0.134Better than the national benchmark |
| Surgical site infections after colon surgery | 0.72No different from the national benchmark |
| Surgical site infections after abdominal hysterectomy | Not reported to Medicare |
| MRSA bloodstream infections | 1.124No different from 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 patients | 13.3% |
|---|---|
| Deaths within 30 days: heart failure patients | 10.2% |
| Deaths within 30 days: pneumonia patients | 14.5% |
| Deaths within 30 days: COPD patients | 8.8% |
| Deaths within 30 days: stroke patients | 11.7% |
| Deaths within 30 days: coronary bypass surgery (CABG) | 3.7% |
| Serious complications (patient safety indicator PSI-90) | 1.24No different from the national rate |
| Complications after hip or knee replacement | 4.7% |
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 attack | 14% |
| Readmitted within 30 days: heart failure | 20.4% |
| Readmitted within 30 days: pneumonia | 17.1% |
| Readmitted within 30 days: COPD | 18.9% |
| Readmitted within 30 days: coronary bypass surgery | 8.3% |
| Readmitted within 30 days: hip or knee replacement | 5.8% |
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) | Very high (60,000 or more) |
|---|---|
| Average (median) time patients spent in the emergency room before leaving (OP-18b) | 148 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) | 68%National average: 65% |
