Unadjusted "Fall and Trauma" Rates for Hospitals in Indiana

On April 6, 2011, CMS released a spreadsheet linked to its Hospital Compare website showing the frequency of the eight (8) Hospital Acquired Conditions (HAC) in hospitals participating in the Medicare Program. This data set is of Medicare beneficiaries only, is not risk adjusted for the severity of the patients, and is based on administrative data only for patients discharged between Oct 1, 2008 to June 30, 2010.

The data can be downloaded from CMS here.

The table below shows the performance of the listed Indiana hospitals for the "Fall and Trauma" measure sorted from high to low.
