Sheridan Memorial Hospital Earns CMS 5-Star Rating – Sheridan Media

(Courtesy photo) The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has announced that Sheridan Memorial Hospital (SMH) has earned an Overall 5-Star rating. This comes only two years after SMH garnered overall 4-Star status and places SMH as one of only two 5-star hospitals in Wyoming.  “Attaining 5-Star status puts us in the top 13.56 percent of hospitals nationwide and shows the efforts we are putting into improving our processes are working,” Chief Nursing Officer Barb Hespen said. “It really is a testament to the hard work and dedication put in by our physicians and staff every day.” Since the start of the star rating system in 2015, CMS collects and compiles data from hospitals and uses that information to assign ratings from 1-5 stars. Much of the data comes from surveys of actual patients assessing their specific experience.  CMS uses the rating system to measure multiple facets of over 4,000 hospitals across the country to drive systematic improvements in care

Missouri Medicaid Expansion Proponents Likely Need Courts To Push Through Voter-Approved Plan

How the courts act could depend on what Gov. Mike Parson s administration does over the next few months. In August 2020, voters approved a constitutional amendment that would expand Medicaid to those at 138% of the federal poverty level. For 2020, this was an annual income of $17,600 for an individual and roughly $36,000 for a family of four. Gov. Mike Parson, an opponent of Medicaid expansion, included money to pay for it in his fiscal 2022 budget which lawmakers have to send to him in the coming days. But the GOP-led House chose not to include funding for expansion, contending that, among other things, they were worried about the impact of the move on future budgets. The Senate voted 20-14 late Wednesday

Brian Schatz, D-Hawaii, in a statement. Our comprehensive bill makes it easier for more people to safely get the care they need no matter where they live, added Schatz, who was among the six senators who led the bipartisan group of lawmakers in the bill s reintroduction.
