Electronic Clinical Quality Measure
Healthcare Personnel Vaccination
The Excess Readmission Ratio (ERR) compares a hospital's actual 30-day readmission rate to its expected rate for similar patients. ERR < 1.0 = fewer readmissions than expected (better). ERR > 1.0 = more than expected (CMS penalty may apply).
Excess Readmission Ratio by Condition — reference line at 1.0 (national expectation)

−20+2
N/A
Patient Safety Indicator — < 1.0 = fewer complications than expected
The HAC Reduction Program penalizes hospitals in the worst-performing quartile with a 1% reduction in all Medicare payments for the fiscal year. The Total HAC Score combines PSI-90 (patient safety) and HAI (infection) data. Lower scores = better performance.
