Medicare Home Health Star Ratings
What Are Home Health Star Ratings?
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) created the Care Compare website to help individuals and families choose the right home health care provider. As the official source of quality information for Medicare-certified providers, Care Compare makes it easier to compare options using consistent national standards.
One of the most helpful tools on Care Compare is the Star Rating system, which offers a clear, easy-to-understand snapshot of a home health agency’s performance. Star Ratings are based on a variety of quality measures that reflect both the care provided and the outcomes patients experience.
These ratings are only part of the bigger picture but provide valuable insight into how well a provider supports patient recovery, independence, and overall well-being.

At Amazing Health Home Care, compassionate, high-quality care is at the core of everything we do. We are proud to be recognized with a 5 out of 5 Star Rating by Medicare for the Quality of Patient Care — the highest possible rating.

How Are Star Ratings Calculated?
Medicare’s Quality of Patient Care Star Rating is based on seven performance measures — covering both how care is delivered and how patients respond to that care.
The seven quality measures include:
Process of care:
- How quickly care begins after a patient is referred
Outcomes of care:
- Patients improving at taking medications correctly by mouth
- Patients increasing their ability to walk or move around
- Patients improving their ability to get in and out of bed
- Patients getting better at bathing themselves
- Patients experiencing less shortness of breath
- Fewer preventable hospitalizations while receiving home health care
These measures were chosen as they are relevant to most home health patients and offer a comprehensive perspective on an agency’s performance.
