What this hospital’s report holds

1. Finances, as filed — every figure of its cost report for the year ended December 31, 2025, with the worksheet, line and column each was read from.
2. Operations and payer mix — beds, bed days, inpatient days, discharges and staff, occupancy and length of stay, and the Medicare, Medicaid and other-payer split of its days and discharges.
3. 17 key ratios — operating and total margin, cost per day, days of cash and more, each printed beside its formula and the cells it was computed from.
4. Income statement and balance sheet — charges by setting, other income, net income, assets, liabilities and fund balance, each with its cell.
5. Cost by department — 49 departments, each with its direct cost and, where it bills patients, its cost after allocation and its charges.
6. Ownership and related organizations — its legal name enrolled with Medicare; the 20 owners, officers and managing parties on its Medicare enrollment; the related organizations it lists on its own cost report, with their ownership share; what those organizations charged it; its type of control as filed.
7. Five hospitals of the same type (short-term acute care hospital), nearest in size and from California first, named, for fiscal year 2025 — beds, net patient revenue, operating expenses, charity care and uncompensated care side by side, with the cell each column is read from.
8. Where it sits — its position on 6 filed figures, each line naming the hospitals it was placed among, beside the national distribution for the year. The same positions its record page shows.
9. Community benefit and executive pay, from its Form 990, where the return is on file.
10. Every cost report it has filed, one row per filing, with its status and the date CMS stamped it.
11. A citation block naming every file the document was read from, the day it was prepared and its publisher, in one sentence to paste.

An excerpt

Every dollar figure, ratio and date is copied from the filing that printed it, and every count is a count of the rows those filings hold. Three shares are divided, each by net patient revenue from the same filing: charity care, uncompensated care and income from service to patients. Positions and distributions — a hospital’s percentile, a median, a middle half, a tenth-to-ninetieth range — are counted over a set of hospitals that each one names. One year is set against another: an as-submitted year’s net patient revenue against the same hospital’s prior filed year, printed as a factor where it is more than 2. Nothing else is calculated. How each figure is defined.
