How to read this report

Every figure is printed as the CMS file it came from printed it. Each cost-report figure carries the worksheet, line and column of form CMS-2540 it was read from, so a reader holding the same public file can go to that cell; each Care Compare and Medicare enrollment section names its file and the date CMS stamped on it.

A figure the filing does not carry is left out, and so is a figure whose value the filing’s own arithmetic contradicts. Net income is printed with what the form’s own arithmetic shows about it — plainly where it follows from the lines above it, and, where it does not, beside what the form’s own lines leave unaccounted for. An ownership field left empty carries the dated sentence on CMS’s pause of the expanded Form CMS-855A disclosure. A source that holds nothing for this facility says so in its section.

This report carries no percentile and no score, and it does not place this facility above or below another. The five facilities above are the one comparison it draws: the nearest certified bed counts in the same state at the same fiscal year, listed by name. Nurse staffing is printed in its own section, on its own page, apart from the cost-report figures.
