How many Medicare-certified hospitals does Fonteum track?

Fonteum tracks 5,426 Medicare-certified hospitals across 56 US states and territories, sourced from the CMS Provider Data Catalog Hospital General Information dataset. Each hospital has its own page carrying CMS overall star rating, hospital type, ownership, and emergency-services status as of the 2026-05-07 snapshot.

What is the CMS hospital overall star rating?

CMS rates Medicare-certified hospitals on a one-to-five-star scale built from quality measures across five groups: mortality, safety of care, readmission, patient experience, and timely and effective care. CMS recalculates the rating periodically from data hospitals submit through Medicare quality programs.

How do I find a specific hospital on Fonteum?

Browse by state from this page to reach a state hub listing every Medicare-certified hospital there, or use the name search to find a hospital and its CMS Certification Number in the loaded snapshot.

What does the hospital ownership type field mean?

The ownership field from CMS Care Compare identifies whether a hospital is government (federal, state, or local), voluntary non-profit (private or church-affiliated), or proprietary (for-profit, physician-owned, or investor-owned). Hospitals self-report this classification when they enroll in Medicare, and CMS publishes it in the Hospital General Information dataset.

Where does this hospital data come from?

Every hospital figure on Fonteum is sourced from the CMS Provider Data Catalog Hospital General Information dataset, updated quarterly by CMS. Each row reflects the facility's own reported data as last reviewed by CMS, and the dataset is US-Government-Works public domain.

How often is the hospital data updated?

CMS publishes the Hospital General Information dataset on a quarterly cadence. This page uses the loaded snapshot published 2026-05-07 and reflects CMS data modified 2026-01-26. Publisher cadence does not prove Fonteum loaded every release or a newer file.
