NOTES: Medicare derived the 30-Day Risk-Adjusted Readmissions measures from its own data about patients in fee-for-service Medicare and the hospitals that treat them. The information in the table reflects care given only to patients in fee-for-service Medicare. All data are risk-adjusted to take into account how sick patients were before they were admitted to the hospital and differences in rates of readmissions that might be due to chance.
